A GM plant in Vandalia, Ohio, had a sign next to the employee lot that
read "Parking for foreign-made vehicles is in southwest lot", or
something similar.  There was a famous sign in Detroit somewhere that
read:  "Attention: 300,000 laid-off UAW (United Auto Workers union)
workers do not like your import.  Please park it in Tokyo."  Don't
know if either sign was enforced, though.

Throughout the midwest, employees in steel or auto-part manufacturing
industries were discouraged from driving foreign cars.  It may not be
as strong today with so many American cars using foreign parts and
"foreign" cars made in the USA (e.g. Honda Accord made in Marysville,
OH).

I've had to get creative to foil the spammers.
