2 responses: 1: GE vs. EMD and 2: Wabash vs. Toyota <br />I ,personally, have leaned towards GE based on several factors. The first encounter I had with GE was with their turbine engines that I worked on and flew with in the Blackhawk helo. Second would be with railfanning and not only the look, but the sound of a Dash-9. Third would be the vision of Jack Welsch which to me is just awesome. <br />As for the latter, you have to be ignorant or misinformed these days to think that if you buy an 'Amercan' car that it is actually built in America and that the price paid stays or (more so- comes back) to 'us'. This is a train forum and I don't want to turn it into something else but I will defend the truth. Toyota pumps millions into our economy- very little of which goes back to the 'homeland'. From research and developement at CALTY and Detroit to manufacturing plants all over the East, Midwest, Texas, Cali, Toronto to the thousands of jobs and suppliers these create and the quality produced by American workers to place Toyota at #2 really says something. I worked for GM before I came to Toyo and I couldn't believe the difference in quality. Though GM has tried to catch-up and has made great strides they still lack in many areas. <br />Having said that- if EMD is anything like it's car company then I'll take a GE any day!
