Toyota Tundra is More American Than Dodge Ram

Recently Cars.com released a study that announced the Top 10 American-Made Cars, and much to our surprise the Dodge Ram was not on the list!

Here are the results from the Cars.com study:

  1. Ford F150
  2. Toyota Camry
  3. Chevy Silverado 1500
  4. Chevy Cobalt
  5. Ford Focus
  6. Toyota Sienna
  7. Chevy Malibu
  8. Pontiac G6
  9. Ford Escape
  10. TOYOTA TUNDRA

See what’s NOT on the list? No Dodges. None.

WOW.

We had to see this for ourselves, so we went and took some photos this weekend at a couple of local Denver dealerships.

The Dodge is 72% domestic parts, with the transmission coming from Germany:

The Tundra has 75% domestic parts, with the most expensive components (engine and transmission) being made in the U.S.

It’s pretty clear to us that driving a Tundra helps the U.S. economy more than driving a Dodge Ram…not to mention it’s more “American”.

In your face Dodge owners! (just kidding)
