I disagree Gary, it is the corporate average fuel economy (CAFE) laws penned in the '80s by our own politicians that have created the situation today. The figures you have seen quoted have nothing to do with where the vehicles are made, the figures you have read refer to what they call domestic content, how many of the parts are made here verses outside the US. Certainly all US Ford vehicles are assembled in plants here in the US, but they are assembled with parts, some of which are made outside the US, to keep the "domestic content" at a level below that specified by the CAFE laws. Ford smartly uses many parts sourced from Mazda, which Ford owns.
