I still like American built cars! Sadly they don't make 'em like they used ta! Think 1950s-1970s. After that...

Without clicking the link I know already....Jeep Cherokee....the new one of course. Probably a tiger shark engine, which is American....and the Chrysler 948te transaxle which is based on a ZF design but made in USA...Naturally the body stampings are domestic although the floorpan may be Italian.
I don't know whether I'm for it or agin it....I don't partake and I can't deal with people when they're fried out, it's like any intelligence they have has gone on vacation.

I saw a Mercum Auto Auction where a replica of the family truckster used in the movie Vacation complete
with the dead aunt on the rooftop. They made 5 or 9 of these trucksters for the movie and at this auction
it sold for $90K.

Did it have the dogs collar hanging off the rear bumper?

Somewhere under all the extra bodywork is a Ford Country Squire, I am pretty sure.
Think ya know all about American cars? Think again. You probably don't know as much as ya think ya know!
I was sure it hadda be GM, or Ford, at least on the truck side. But nope, wrong again. So what is? Guess...
