Difference being we don't tax the imports...and a lot of European facilities don't rely on boatloads of parts, rather Europe where various component facilities are linked closer.
Also, European factories cater for a greater volume, so their exports to us are a small percentage, rather then what we have here...
Hardly rocket surgery, its not just Ford saying its hard...its Ford, Toyota and Holden altogether...
I'd say its pretty obvious...
