This seems like we are on a Japanese built demigod vehicle forum right?As I said, just FYI for those who care about buying US made products when options are available. If I'm looking at a US made product and a non-US made product that are similar in performance and features I will always buy the US made one.....even if it costs more money (within reason of course). Especially with something where a lack of quality could cause a crash when made by someone 7,000 miles away earning $0.25/hr. Of course I would be comfortable with Made in Japan for safety related items as well.
