Not a lot of years ago we purchased a Sears Kenmore refrigerator and were told by the sales guy that Sears has a third party making their appliances back then. We bought it anyway since Sears Kenmore always meant top-shelf quality to us for appliances.

Well, I suppose Sears was failing even then. Today we're out $350.00 to replace the motor via a service call. My "Sears Kenmore" icebox was actually manufactured by LG, a South Korean electronics firm. Buying American is a tough pull these days.

True but the Bud Lights for today's racing will be ice cold.
