I can't prove it, I didn't bookmark the URL, Search the FMC site, >WBMA ;) > > > mike Well now we are getting somewhere. you don't actually have any proof. You just think there is some proof. You think you remember seeing some proof, but you can't find it, so you are hoping someone can find it for you. Give up Mike. There is no relationship between the WMI and domestic content. Nobody is going to find proof that doesn't exist. Here is more for you to think about. To be considered a domestic vehicle, the vehicle must have 75% domestic content. According to the domestic content label, the average Mustang only contains 70% domestic content, but it is assembled in the USA and gets a "1" as the first digit of the VIN. Likewise, the average 2008 Ford Escape only includes 65% domestic content, yet is still gets a "1" as the first digit of the VIN. How do you explain these vehicles that don't seem to fit into your pet theory that the VIN indicates domestic content? Ed |
