    What I assumed. I believe it may be at a cost of American jobs?

    Depends how you look at it. The point of free trade is that trade should balance out without barriers. However competitive advantages (the usually lower CAD and Mexico's cheap abundant labour) do lead to unequal trade for the USA.

    However it's important to mention that the USA would have a huge negative trade balance NAFTA or no NAFTA. Tariffs only lead to trade wars that cause more issues than they solve. The USA has a fundamental problem of being relatively poor at producing many goods at any sort of price based competitive advantage. As long as people want to buy at the lowest dollar any sort of long term growth in the US manufacturing sector is a pipe dream.

    From what we know, the Sport trim has the color matched interior plastic and the limited has the tan leather dash. But both!?!?!? Sport Limited combo or do you think that just the brown will be an additional interior color?

    I bet brown is an additional interior color option.

    Did it ever occur to anyone that it could simply be a colored protective plastic that gets peeled off at the dealership? Our Prius was full of blue plastic that got peeled off when they unloaded it from the truck.

    Who really knows what color is really under there? Could be pink. Could be puce.

    Toyota is fucking with us...

    Nope its color matched, the pictures of the inferno sport show inferno color surround, the red dcsb offroad pictures have red surround, willing to bet its colored.
