Made in America Auto Index

Found this interesting. Especially since Ford only has one entry in the list.

Everything that everyone makes is on the "Made in America Index" -the list is over 300 entries long. There are more than 50 entries tied for last with a minimum score of 1 point.

Anyway, the surprise for me isn't so much that Ford only has 1 entry in the top 10 ... its that the other 9 are all GM. I would have assumed that FCA would have a couple in there along with at least 3 Fords and maybe a transplant or two. But no, it is completely dominated by GM.

Complete list here: http://kogodbusiness.com/reports/auto-index/

Well if you wanna buy American it seems as if its GM nearly all the way. Kudos to Ford for having a whole whopping 1 vehicle make the list.

Ford had more than 1 vehicle in the list. The list in the first post was just the top 10 most American.

Big Kudos to GM for having 9 of the top 10

Both Camaro and Mustang are at 80%.

Looking at the comments, Ford fans want to start grouping the entries together with same platform, you know, so they look more 'Murica by comparison (but oddly enough, not with the truck sales comparison).

Also, don't look at the comments
