Funny you should mention KIA. They used to be owned by Ford. Remember the Ford Festiva? POS tin can, cost Ford big $$, and when they (KIA) got their act together, following Hyundi's lead, they went off on their own.
All of the foreign mfgs came here because North America has the most productive workforce in the world!
When paid a fair wage, with flexible management that actually listens to their workers, they can't lose.
Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Mitsubishi, Subaru, Suzuki, Hyundi, Mercedes, BMW, they all built plants in North America becuase they all make money.
