We build the Revo here because we want to build our cream of the crop model all in the USA. We have other lower models whose sub-assemblies come from Hungary. Building in the USA is not cheap but if we don't build things here, we are going to slip into a 3rd world country. Its just a matter of time. Slowly but surely. I am a bit surprised that Americans born and brought up here don't seem to have the perspective that allows them to see that clearly.
