Toyota opens SUV plant in Ontario


Despite slumping North American sales, Toyota officially opened a new
production facility in Woodstock, Ontario on Thursday.


It's predominantly an assembly operation as are all North American foreign
vehicle plants. I was a supplier to the auto industry for 30 years, and in
fact was involved with this operation while it was still a cow pasture, I
believe it was called "CAMI" while it was developed, strangely, with the
aid
of GM of Canada,ironically now itself out to pasture.


No more than 25 to 30% of the "content" is domestic - the rest is Asian..
If
it makes you feel better, the Korean vehicles "built" in North America are
less than 10% domestic content.


Hey, what the hell, you can always work at Walmart!


Check the material suppliers, the tooling companies and capital equipment
operations in Mississauga and Windsor. *Dead. *Why's that??????? * See
above.


But you get good mileage!! * hahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahaha


Careful... when someone has harry beat, he resorts to 3rd grade insults. I
hope you have a thick skin!! lol
