Default Sell Jeep to China or India????

The article started out good, but then mentions Chrysler selling off Jeep to another country. But then again it's just the press saying it, nothing official.

Remember back when Harley Davidson was lobbying for tariffs put on japanese imported motorcycles so there floundering company could make a come back?
And then just a few years ago HD was bitching because the japanese where charging tariffs on them.

And as far as buying american, I read that there where more parts on a honda goldwing than the HD road king made in America (Don't remember the year).

If you really want to buy American try a Polaris Victory motorcycle.
The only foriegn parts on them are the Italian brakes.
