I have owned Polaris atv's since 1987.Ever since my first 250 Trail Boss when I run into a person riding a foreign atv the first thing I hear is how bad the Polaris atv's are..They have never owned one but love to put them down.I have also always driven Ford trucks.Same thing..(I worked for Ford for 44 years)Why does the younger generation love to beat down American made products??My Polaris atv's and Ford's have served me very well and I know I am supporting the AMERCIAN WORKERS.These are the same people that talk about how bad the things are bad in our country..I must say I am proud to be an American and very proud to BUY AMERICAN!!!

The part you mentioned about lazy Americans? Well sir, I work at a major aerospace company on the west coast. I am an hourly worker and as such most of my fellow workers are unionized. Yes, many are unfortunately lazy. The lowest hourly rate in my facility is about $30 an hour (at maxed out pay scale...which most are). This high rate of pay in NO WAY makes most of these workers a value for the company. Lazy, constantly avoiding work, slow, and many spend the day talking or screwing off. Funny thing is....the recent immigrants show a MUCH better work ethic than most native born workers. This is a sad truth. Many Americans in large, unionized companies take full advantage of seniority and push the limits to NOT have to work hard.
Thanks again for your service.

Haha, the truth about the union boys on the job.........it's so funny to hear the real stories.
Look at how many people there are, that are over weight in this country. I often look around and see this, and wonder, "what does that person do to make a living". Sure, a person can be large and still do a job, but NOT THAT many people. Come on!

People say their "Toyota" or "Yamaha" is made in a plant in the USA; However, all the parts for the machine comes from china and all the money (profit) that is made goes right back to china. So all you are supporting is some factory jobs and thats it. Where when you buy a Ford and their parts count is 90% USA parts and 10% Canada for their trucks you are fully supporting the USA. Most any small town does not have any forgein dealer in it as far as vehicles or ATVs, because they would not sell there.
Not sure what you are trying to say here but my Yamaha (which is a Japanese co) along with many other bikes including good old Harley Davidson use Nissin brake systems which stared as a Japanese co now are basically American owned and ran. Of all the parts I have looked at on my Yamaha bikes I have yet to see a Chinese name on a single part. I am sure there is some but who knows as to what it is. As for Ford trucks being 100% North american made (Chinese tire tariff could hit Ford trucks | Michigan Automotive News - - Michigan Auto News & Reviews - MLive.com) you might think twice about that statement. Not a single automotive Co uses American made wiring harneses/switches in there trucks which make up a good portion of a vehicles cost.Nissin Brake Ohio : Nissin Kogyo Co., Ltd.

Thank you for your service to our country. My father is a marine. He was in during the late fifities and went to boot camp at Parris Island. Never saw combat though.
