BRP Moving to TEXAS!

[nhoj]

BRP has manufacturing in Juarez, Mexico across from El Paso. I think the F3 is made there with their offroad four wheelers.

No the F3 is made in Valcourt.

Hey, sounds good to me. I'm always up for a road trip. How about a Texas homecoming? And the locals speak English too, sort of.

Oops... I know that the side X sides were made there, but I swear I remember something about the F3 in Juarez. I'm probably wrong.

Hi Pete,

Re: a fully dedicated North American business unit

If it is for North America, I see little improvement. If they said 'fully dedicated US business unit' then I might expect something different.

Maybe it is just a typo,

However they phrase it, it doesn't translate into more factory jobs in Texas.

You might have seen that All Sea-Doo Jet skies have been assembled in Mexico the Last few years. I Not happy about that!

I think this is excellent for Texas, & the USA as a whole!!!

The more business's in the good old USA the better! Regardless of what type(s) of jobs it brings :yes:

I don't know. They're only bringing the white collar (office) functions to Texas, not manufacturing.

Pete is correct. Plano is one of the largest corporate headquarters cities in the nation. You won't find any blue collar workers there. I'm guessing this has more to do with the future assembly locations either in the USA or Mexico than it does with any customer. It also may be easier to recruit executives to Plano than Icebox du Francais, Canada. I'm told people can more easily pick up Texican than French.

The map that has only east-west on it.
