Just when you thought car makers were about to ditch U.S. Soil, VW announced today it will be building a plant in Chattanooga, tennessee to initially produce 150,000 cars a year and employ 2,000 people.Invading US soil is part of VW's plan to overtake GM and Toyota and make VW the world's dominant car maker. Plans are to sell 8000,000 cars in the US by 2018.

It surely helps that the dollar has fallen and the euro is strong. German maker BMW is also expanding output in the US within their Spartanburg plant.

Maybe if GM, Ford, or Chrystler had plants in a town called Toledo in Germany we could increase production.
