Tundra is a perfect example. 76% US made content. If you are a citizen and pay taxes you are obviously earth group first followed by: 1. USA 2. Texas 3. North America.

That would go way OT but it's agreat concept to ponder whilst riding one's Riv down a long, lonely country rode (shameless Riv tie-in there).
