Default VW Returning?

Some of us remember the original Bug.

Then there was the Rabbit built in PA.

Then came the new bug from Mexico.

Now the company wants to build an assembly plant in the US.

The article said VW was the fourth largest in the world.

OK - GM, Toyota, Ford, VW, Honda? Chrysler? Nissan? or something else?

How in the hell can a company be ranked #4 in the world and not have a plant in the USA?

VDub is HUGE in Europe and South America. The Golf is a perennial bestseller worldwide, as is the Jetta. They also sell tons of smaller cars in every other market but ours, like the Lupo and Fox. I don't really see them as being worthy of the #4 spot though.
