Fess-up, Detroit: where are you?
In automotive, it's no longer the Prius, but it is still "from"
Japan.

I should say the design only is from Japan. Honda's six US
factories generally have higher quality ratings then their
Japanese counterparts. Part of that due to the fact the factories
are newer, the work force is slightly younger, the unions not as
hostile - but mostly due to top-down brainpower... which sadly, is
lacking from Detroit.
