More accurately: American car manufacturers killed our local production.
Really? I don't know a ton about this, but it looks like American and Japanese manufacturers are the only ones to have ever operated in Australia
I'm not super into cars, but it's my understanding Holden was a local manufacturer that got bought out by GM? Or if not that, then they were making specifically Australian vehicles despite being part of GM, much like Ford Australia used to. Both ended up shutting down operations down here, so now we have nothing local.
So not the fault of USA manufacturers, but Australia's incompetent leadership
No, not even close to that
Pour one out for the poor bosses at GM and Ford
