Good luck buying the majority of equipment that is 100% American made.


There's nothing special about American quality anymore, unfortunately.


Two conflicting statements

Nothing has been truly "Made in USA" according to the FTC's definition of Made in USA, which is "the FTC has required that a product advertised as Made in USA be “all or virtually all” made in the U.S."

When's the last time you seen just "made in USA" and not "Made in USA with Foreign and Domestic components" or "Made in USA with Global materials"?

The last vehicles that could borderline meet the law for Made in USA are basically pre 2007, the last equipment the late 90s, which if you take a look, basically any farm equipment pre 2000 is in extremely high demand, and any vehicle, especially pickups, like the 7.3, 5.9, are also in extremely high demand.
