Now it's toothpaste. Chinese manufacturing and export regulations are obviously not administered for the benefit of consumers. The entire program appears to be based on a philosophy of caveat emptor. I've always been a fan of products manufactured in the good ol' U. S. of A., and they seem to be a much safer choice, as the FDA allows "global commerce" to slowly smother us with hidden hazzards.

yummm engine coolant... just sounds liek it would do teeth good! Thanks tex- I will stick to Crest since it is US made.
3 of my 4 cars have been US made and they did better than my Japanese Eclipse altough it was more sporty. The Oldsmobile lasted over 225,000; Ford Explorer over 190,000; and my Pontiac G6 is a blast to drive! I got rid of the Eclipse after going over 65,000 miles. (If you all are wondering how a 25 year old put that many miles on 3 cars... well I didnt. I bought them all used).

Our first Buick Park Ave was my all time favorite car (1989 version). 2 years old & low milage when we bought it. Kept it several years and gave it to our son at about 150,000 miles. At way over 200,000 (and another several years) he gave it to my grandson who had just gotten his license. It only lasted 2 weeks with him since he killed the transmission - otherwise, I think it would still be going & going & going. HaHaBy the way, VERY few problems - ever.
Just had to brag on my favorite car ever.
Love, Shirley
