They can build all the Nissans they want in Missippi and I still won't support that sh*t or proliferate a Japanese brand. They build Toyotas in the California Bay Area, but damned if I'm buying one.

The parts are mostly foreign and shipped here; the intellectual input is mostly foreign, the market share credit goes to a foreign nameplate, and the overall control and ownership is Japanese. In the case of Nissan it is also partly French.

Thanks for the assembly jobs - like Mexico has with VW and others, but I'd rather support and strengthen an American brand. Take my argument to the extreme and you'll understand. If we consider anything assembled in America to be American then why not dispose of GM and Ford entirely. Then when my relatives visit from Europe - I can explain that Toyota, Honda, and Nissan are really American - the world will see the so-called superpower with nothing but Japanese nameplates. F'ing pathetic - we have more technology and intellectual capacity than to settle for the 3rd-rung input on products.

DON'T Proliferate Japanese brands - they don't give us a fair shake in their market so screw 'em.

Saying Nissan is American is a load of crap and it don't fly with me. My loyalty remains Ford and GM products!
