USA made products

[s/w theo]

I'm sick & tired of almost everything we buy being made in China! Sure, it's cheap (in both way's) but they are NOT an ally of ours. If you're looking for American made products from American companies, check out this website. Mammoth Nation. Your money will be well spent. They support conservative candidates too.

Not nearly as much as we used to, but we do still make some things here.

Yep, with todays instant gratification/serious impatience
with price-point shoppers/cheapskates, our point & click society
(cell phones) some people can't seem to function with out electronics/aides
those very reason makes it a lot harder to find stuff made in USA
some even won't spend a $1 more for made in the USA
or let alone even take the time to even check country of origin
even then some of them are only assembled in the USA
with foriegn parts/suppliers

globalism/globalist attitudes, shitty leadership, with far less patriotism
all for profit & greed/for just a few bucks more profit

you really have to put a real effort in,
buying/finding Made In America

it's worth the extra efforts

I didn't see any automotive/car parts category
on 'Mammoth Nation' either

I totally agree with you theo.. but I am the type of guy that will buy from the little guys first that sell built in the USA but that is getting harder to do anymore! I did just purchase some nice rachet straps from the Snappin Turtle, a PA company and their stuff is built in the USA. It says right in their ads on the website. It cost more.. but its supporting US workers, and I like that.

Yeah, no auto parts, YET, but maybe soon. Still worth our support. I try to buy "Made in USA" products as much as I can. Some other Countries do make quality products, & usually they are friends of the US.

I look at every purchase and if I have a choice it is North America first

A lot of people on this site are aware that my being involved in Antique and Classic car parts for 51 years now, in 2022, I have some phenomenal and sensational
N.O.S. *** U.S.A. made *** parts ( I do G M , Ford, & others, in addition to)
MOPAR "B", "E", "C" "A", and IMPERIAL.... All Mechanical parts --- N O "pieces of car" ---

And, when I am at a car show / swap meet
(I.E. --- Chryslers @ Carlisle),
I am proud to state that my counters are still 90 ish %
U.S.A. made , in the year 2022 !!!

(P.S. --- it I S getting harder and harder, though....)
Yours, Craig....

Just my 2 cents here. Made in the USA sounds good but look out for the “from globally sourced parts or material “ which tells me that it’s not in actually made in the USA. Good for thought…….

I ordered and received a couple Cragar SS direct drill wheels. I was so F'in elated they are stamped "Made In USA". Sadly the caps were chink made, but I'll take it as an overall win!

 

[mobileparts]

When the N.O.S. parts have "19Nov91" stamped on it,
You really don't even have to look at the "Made in U.S.A."
Stamped 3" to the right !!! You KNOW it is !!!

Yep I just noticed in the fine print of STHIL rechargeable products add they say, batteries and chargers are sourced internationally.

A really interesting company and history

Lots of websites that list/track companies still producing products in the USA out there...
all for the GIS'ing.
Wife and I have been on a bit of a mission these last few years not to buy anything substantive
from anywhere except made in North America - even if it means perhaps not buying "new".

The latest example is a vacuum cleaner for the house - the Panasonic (they make vacuums under
many brands, such as Kenmore) she's had has ticked me off for the last time (Chinesium).
I was hellbent on buying a USA-made one (yes, they still make a couple of them here) but we
couldn't afford $thousands for one, so I did the next best thing - found a nearly perfect used one
that had been refurb'ed by a lifelong tech for the manufacturer, Filter Queen.
That thing has turned out to be a mac daddy of a vacuum in most any way and we're very pleased;
the old raggedy Panasonic has been banished to her workplace to serve out what little life it has left.

Come to think of it, I've been considering doing similar when either of our later-model vehicles come
up big-money lame in the future - a replacement with a nice, excellent condition older car (pre-computers)
seems prudent there, too.
