Motor City, Planet Earth. Or where do cars come from?
Globalization has forever changed manufacturing. And like so many of today’s industries, the car business has become increasingly segmented, with parts for a single OEM hailing from here, there and everywhere.
ABC News proved that out in a recent report on job creation in the auto industry.
Turns out 20 U.S. jobs are created for every 100 Toyota Camrys sold, while 13 U.S. jobs are created for every 100 Ford Escapes sold.
So before you drape that F-150 with an American flag, you might want to check your patriotism here. ABC has a calculator to show you precisely how much of your ride was “made in America.”
