Great beer and lots of wide open spaces to explore - nothing wrong with north of the border. Except maybe the damn bugs in the spring

Blame CANADA! haha just kiddin... I think canada is great, especially vancouver and has very beautiful country side and great skiing. I dont mind that some parts of the jeep are made there. Its much better than made in china or mexico. This day and age no car is soley built from one country

That's why I made my "Ya Think" comment. Hell, the mexicans ought to be insulted being compared to china.

Besides, if something is made in the Canada, U.S., or Mexico, its still made in America. Hell, even Brazilian stuff is made in America . . . even if it is South America.

Made in Canada eh
I'm sure there are probably alot of other parts made in Canada on the jeep and probably other Countries as well. As long as there not made in "sweatshops" and the quality is there I don't care.
