I don't even think "Jeep" (in quotes because they're no longer a company) have any presence in the US anymore. All of their presence, as far as I know, is in Amsterdam as part of Stellantis.

What about the Toledo assembly plant?

I have been wrong before, and this is yet another instance. I wasn't aware of that.

Happens to the best of us. We learn, we move on!

20 active manufacturing plants + 2 idled/retooling, is a fairly solid US presence.
I work for another one of the 'big 3', have heard mixed things about working for Stellantis; but honestly don't think it would make much difference, if HQ direction came from Amsterdam instead of the Detroit region.

As stated earlier, I appear to be mistaken then. My bad.
