The Most American-Made Cars Are EVs Now

If there's one thing that many consumers learned over the last year, it's that even the most made-in-America cars aren't entirely made in America.

Parts come from everywhere, causing most cars to be much more international than people think. The auto manufacturing game is a global one where brands of all insignias put aside their nationalities, and even jobs in their home countries, in the name of profits.

But some cars still do better at being all-American than others. Each year, Cars.com measures which cars top the charts in one of the most flag-waving, red-white-and-blue-wearing studies out there. This year, 60% of the top-10 most American-made vehicles are EVs—and that's despite politicians looking to cut off taxpayer funding to them.

What is reality and what is wokeness?

That is the one thing I struggle with more each and every day. Wokeness has become so persuasive in society today, with people always trying to hawk their wares with cuteness and virtue. Endless streams of photos of cute farm animals, products packaged in plain brown cardboard with rechargeable lithium ion batteries that are supposed to be sustainable. While in my younger years I would be quick to dismiss a book on permaculture as new age quackery and pushing of wokeness, there is nothing with trying to learn as much about land and alternative philosophies and what actually makes sense in reality and isn’t about being cute and woke – or selling a book or similar product. It’s actually really confusing – you want to do the right thing but the marketeers only care about selling you plastic shit.
