I wanna see what car or truck he buys. There's not a single car
made without Chinese parts!

I own at least one car that I guaranty has no Chinese parts.


Even in the radio?


Yep.

I assume that is a AC Delco radio?

Yep, made in 1967

I have to check .... I don't know who makes the radio in the Porsche. Oh
..... yes I do ... it's a Bose system custom built for Porsche. Don't know
where they are made.

Also, the Sprinter. Ours was made in Germany. Don't know if they use
Chinese parts.

I think you are in error. The "second generation" Dodge Sprinters (late
2006 and 2007 model years) sold in the US are being built here at the
original Freightliner plant and at new plant you referenced.

Prior to that, some underwent final assembly here as "Freightliners" but
most were assembled in Düsseldorf, which is the point of origin of ours
which, I think, is a 2005 model.

Do you know if Pleasure Way has started using the six cylinder Sprinters
yet?

I suspect they would have to be on the new Sprinters. The six replaced the
five cylinder that we have.

I also suspect the change was due to increased emission regulations. From
what I've read, the six has the same power output that the 5 had, so it
wasn't and issue of getting more horsepower.

I believe you can also get it in a gas version now as well, although I don't
know why anybody would want to.

Beautiful colour co-ordinated trailer behind the Sprinter. Does that carry
the horses or other toys?

Isn't it amazing what a can of spray paint makes when applied to the fenders
of an otherwise pretty basic Haulmark trailer?

We occasionally use the trailer to carry extra "stuff" that won't fit in
the Sprinter.
It *is* setup to carry a Harley as well.
