Vehicles built at Toyota's first plant in the country, NUMMI in
California all get a "1." Vehicles built at the Toyota Motor
Manufacturing plant in Kentucky get a "4." Vehicles built at the
Toyota Motor Manufacturing Plants in Indiana and Texas get a "5". It
is that simple. It has nothing to do with the domestic content of the
vehicles built at those plants.

Here is something else for you to chew on - Titians and Frontiers get
a "1" for the first digit. Quests, Armadas and Xterras get a "5." The
Domestic content is nearly the same for Armadas and Titans . How do
you explain that?

BTW, US built Sentras get a "3." US built Altimas get a "1". US built
Maximas get a "1" Guess what, Maximas don't count as domestic
vehicles, and Altimas do. Why do they both get a "1."

You keep telling people to search for the proof to prove you right.
Well I have searched and IT DOES NOT EXIST. Telling people to search
for nonexistent proof is dishonest. If you had any proof at all, you
would have provided it long ago.

Glad to see I have some purpose in life.

Ed, you're mistaken there, buddy. Bonehenge owns a 2005 Tacoma
made at NUMMI in Fremont. The VIN of his Tacoma starts
with a 5--not a 1.

Not everything coming out of NUMMI begins with a 1 like you say.
