It's just a matter of time. 10 years ago it was wrt Hyundai "would you buy a car made in Korea?" That said, manufacturing in NA still has certain advantages (legal/business climate, location, proximity to supply chain, etc), so it's a question of how much that is worth in labour costs. Given that the vast majority of UAW/CAW is only qualified to earn minimum wage, you would think there is a happy medium that can preserve the auto-manufacturing sector in NA. Of course, will UAW/CAW leadership have enough intelligence to see which way things are trending...
