Just in case some of you are wondering, selling wheels doesn't pay this well. Selling wheels might pay for the fuel in these vehicles, but that is about it. I've got a successful career in the offshore oil/gas industry, with about 20 years of experience.
CC Perf: They are American cars, regardless of where assembly took place. The only THREE vehicles not built inside the USA are the two new Camaros and the Ram. Each of the five others was built in the USA. I like each of them for different reasons, whether for sentimental, passion, performance, etc... I'd say my Viper is my current favorite, it was a dream car for me since the first GTS came out in 1996. Tony

I'd have to say the 69 SS would be my favorite.
Yea I know they're American but it is funny in an ironic way.. I've got a ss built in Canada and Z28 built in Los Angeles a Mopar built in Detroit I think.. its just a funny dual argument that always goes on... |

True, but the profits of all the American cars end up here in the USA at the end of the day. 5 of those 8 vehicles above were built in the states. 5th gens - Canada, Ram - Mexico. The rest were built here.
