Hey, I resemble that comment! And, I'm sure Pat does too! Actually I'd say
San Antonio is about as unique within TX as TX is within the US, for
whatever you want to think of that.

GM builds Sierras and Silverados in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Ford builds
the F150 in Dearborn, Michigan and Kansas City, Missouri.


Really?! I'm impressed. Do they also build them elsewhere, I wonder because,
I was thinking that the bulk, if not all, of the production had been moved
to Canada and maybe Mexico. Good to know.

Thank,

GM used to have four full-size truck assembly plants in the U.S.; they
closed one prior to 2009 and two in 2009, iirc. Full-size GM trucks
are currently (to the best of my knowledge) also built in Canada and
Mexico; not sure about Fords.
