Interesting, I am surprised how few Ford vehicles are near the top.

I would like to see a comparison where they calculate how much extra money a company makes by making a particular choice. I know it would be complex but as an example: VW received US taxpayer money to build a plant in Chattanooga, so comparing the cost of building that plant with no subsidies elsewhere, and considering the taxes they avoid by not having an "imported car", how much extra money goes to the bottom line of VW (and leaves the US). I know it would be a bit convoluted but would be an interesting exercise.
