I'll guarantee you the F-150 body, bed, engine, transmission, seats, dash and components, frame, tires, battery & windows were all made in the USA. The wire looms, harneses, lights, head light, tail lights, bumper, interior trim, seat belts, center console (if you have one), carpet, head liner, outer mirrors, rear view mirror, and wheels were either made in mexico or Canada.

it would also be nice to find out where the actual materials themselve's come from to start each and should be accounted for also like the rubber metal oil grease piant mold plastic wire etc. and perhaps the machine's that make each of them parts too.

Whats next?  Where the air in the tires is from?

I look at a car.  I look at its track record.  I look at its price.  Do I really care where its built?

shateredsoul:
If they admitted the issue from the beginning I would be more willing to trust Toyota, but even the early reports seemed fishy.  An issue with the floor mats? Human error? pedal issues? Yeah right..

For every news article (online) I always read the comments, there were many people commenting about still having issues after taking the floor mats out etc.

I will probably never buy Toyota again,  If they had admitted the issue from the beginning and accepted their mistakes, I would be willing to go back to them.  But now I know that if there's a future issue with their cars, they'll react this way and claim it's only a minor issue and it will easily get fixed.  Tell that to the families who have had their car rear-end other card, run into intersections, run through their garage, or kill who have been killed because of this issue with their cars.

If I sold someone something that killed them (not due to their own mistakes), I bet i'd be in jail right now.

As for Fords, in general my family has had good experiences with Ford Trucks... my Father in law had really bad luck with a Ford Ranger from 2001.  Handles and pieces literally pulled off that truck like no other (the back door to the bed just came off once). I've heard good things about newer Fords.
