I try to buy American, but have had good luck with most Harbor frieght stuff - engine stand + lifts. Made in the USA is all but extinct, I pick up from wharehouses every day and everyone of them is full of made in China. All the American ones have left the state or country. Just dont see anyway we can compete, not with our standard of living what it is. I dont see it getting any better, also it seems our skilled labor is dissappearing to. Sorry for rambling.
