That's cool Bryan. They even make the seat-foam in-house!!! I'd like to see the same tour at the Polaris factory. I'll bet most stuff is pre-assembled and comes from boxes that say "Hencho in Mexico" or "Made in China"......Outsourcing is gonna be the death of our country.

You mean "Hecho en mexico"
While I support the general idea of what you are trying to say, I do think there are probably a TON of things you buy everyday that fall under the same premise. There is no one on this forum that owns only things that were made in America. It's impossible. Just saying.
