    All 3 of our vehicles are USA made and so is our three motorcycles. My big screen TV, well dang made in Japanese land, no USA companies make em back then. What does make me upset is all the cloths and many on the products at the HD dealership are made in Japanese land.

    JB, you would look good on that big stream liner. :)

    In my Driveway -- Three FORDS - USA Made USA Company
    IN my garage a John Deere - USA
    Clubcar Golf Cart - USA

    I looked in my shorts, tags are worn out so not sure where they were
    made and well you don't want to know what I saw in there but
    it's time for a trip to the store. :eek:

    Try and find clothes made here it's possible even Wal-Mart has a few

    TV's, yep all overseas same with cornputers and phones

    But to take a shot at an American Company employing Americans
    in America keeping jobs in the USA is just wrong just because you don't like the "looks"

    Before I'd give any money to the Krauts or Japs l'll buy a Victory and
    support a USA company....

    My TTS uses software coded, compiled and sold in the USA by a USA company...

    Your T-Max is made in China....:roflmao:
