Re: Toyota Camry tops this year's Cars.com American-Made Index
More spin for Toyota.
Its a completely flawed methodology - among other things tries to massively misrepresent Canadian production as the same as Japanese in value when instead it logically counts as the 51st State.

See, contrary to what a bunch of people wish were happening, retail buyers are not abandoning GM and Chrysler and are definitely gettin' behind Ford in a really good way.
The American people - or more accurately, 'enough' of the American people are doing this in part because Chrysler, GM, and Ford are American Companies -
Just a hunch, but you can 'feel' it out there.
