re: Poll: Would you pay more for American made products if they are better?

The American auto companies have greatly improved their products.

Yes, they have. Again, though, they're in a position of their own making, both in public perception as well as actual product performance.

Again, I have no real issue with Fords.

A window motor that acts up, and the rear defroster doesn't work. I guarantee both are foreign made electrical parts.

You're probably right, but do you think these components would be better if they were American-made? Electronics, traditionally, have been the foreign (particularly Asian) strong suit. All components like those will have some inevitable failures, either based on time or just the incidental defect in production. It happens.
