American products can compete price wise with anybody, we just have to give up OSHA. the EPA, unemployment, social security, medicare, labor unions, safe working conditions, and the idea that a work week is 40 hours. Actually, I never had a 40 hour a week job unless I took one day off. Unfortunately when we buy foreign stuff- and sometimes there isn't a choice- we're voting with our money for those working conditions.I totally agree. It's a total shame American made products just can't compete with the rest of the worlds pricing. It's not even close.
If I counted on the jack everyday for work... it's easier to justify the cost. I've used my jack a couple times in the last week... but it wasn't used for a couple months before that.
Hard to say which way I will go when the time comes... but it just may end up a foreign jack with what I want it to have... and a pair of seats for the Bronco.
