Look at MIT and others research centers. Indians, Brasilians, Chinese, Japanese, Greeks, but few Americans working there.

Brasil has the best ever technology on finding and extracting petroil. Indias got their own digital cinema technology. Why can´t Mexico build something like that?

You really think you are the center of the world, don´t you? Obviusly You don´t know nothing about Mexico and other "undeveloped" countries...

Now where is my hover car?

Additionally, keep in mind the Fords (and other marques as well) are not *engineered* in Mexico, only assembled after many years of prior assembly in the First World. It's sometimes done there now on especially cost-sensitive models (read "cheap") because the labor costs are very low. The technology is pretty established and the catastrophic failure modes are few. So what if a mirror falls off or a piece of trim rattles...

When Mexico learns to engineer (and then build) its own motorcycles, cars, airplanes, and helicopters first, then we can consider them as a viable source for rocket pack expertise. There's a little catch up needed for them to prove themselves.

Straight talk from Sid.

I'm with Sid on this one; Mexico? Not on your life (let alone mine!)

I'm not sure I would trust one made in Mexico, though...

d'oh!
