These Are the 10 Most ‘American' Cars: How Much Do They Cost in 2025?
On April 29, 2025, President Donald Trump signed an executive order and a proclamation to allow reimbursements for domestic car producers importing car parts. But the auto tariffs themselves have not been reduced; 25% tariffs on auto parts still went into effect on May 3. Car prices are expected to increase as a result.

But what about cars made exclusively in the U.S.? Will these go up in price, too? It's likely they will because even American auto manufacturers use car parts that are not made in the U.S.
'No cars are actually 100% made in the United States with parts sourced from the United States,' said Edmunds consumer insights analyst Joseph Yoon, according to USA Today. 'It's going to be a big, big deal for the auto industry, globally, if the tariffs are implemented and enforced at face value.'
But some cars are 'more American' than others. In June 2024, Cars.com published a list ranking the most American-made cars. Which are they and how much do they cost in 2025?
Starting Price: $56,490
Coming in at No. 10 on the list of the most 'American'-made cars is the Lexus TX 350, which Kelley Blue Book ranked at No. 8 on its roundup of best luxury mid-size SUVs. It's techy, comfy, roomy and gets good gas mileage. Plus, it has excellent resale value. The only noted con is that only the base model offers seven-passenger seating.

Starting Price: $86,880
Kelley Blue Book found that owners of the Tesla Model X gave it a 4.6 out of 5 rating and that 83% recommend it. Some compare it to a Porsche (technically it's faster than a twin turbo Porsche) and say they look forward to going out for a ride in it. But there are some drivers who feel this automobile just isn't worth the steep price.
Starting Price: $40,095
The 2025 Jeep Gladiator is a pretty ferocious looking example of a midsize truck. As you might expect, it's got masterful off-road maneuvering. It's a little less impeccable with its on-road capabilities, but still a vehicle that will impress truck enthusiasts, particularly those who want an 8-speed automatic transmission.
Starting Price: $29,795
The 2025 Toyota Camry has definitely impressed Kelley Blue Book reviewers, who ranked it the No. 1 best mid-size car. It's spacious, reliable and superior to all its predecessors (this is the ninth generation). Even a diligent review found no substantial cons.
Starting Price: $41,600
The 2025 Honda Ridgeline isn't substantially different from the 2024 iteration, but it is spacious and pretty smooth — for a truck. It's well designed and intuitive for drivers, but some truck enthusiasts will frown upon its unibody construction.
Starting Price: $43,670
Kelley Blue Book reviewers are pretty big fans of the 2025 Honda Odyssey, ranking it the second-best minivan. It's an ideal family car with easy-to-use technology. There is one pretty sizable downside, and that's the lack of a hybrid option.
Starting Price: $81,880
As you may have expected, the Tesla Model S is one of the more expensive automobiles on this list, with a steep starting price of $81,880. It doesn't have Apple Car Play or Android Auto, which for some is a significant shortcoming, but it does have a 402-mile range and free supercharging for life.
Starting Price: $41,420
Yes, you read that right. The famously German car brand has one of the most American-made automobiles on the market with the Volkswagen ID.4, an all-electric SUV. This vehicle has good tech and a spacious cabin, but for the best range, you'll have to spend more on a higher-end model.
Starting Price: $43,850
The 2025 Honda Passport is roomy and capable, but it has an 'aging design,' according to Kelley Blue Book. It also doesn't have any upgrades from the 2024 version, but it holds up as a reliable and efficient SUV.
Starting Price: $46,880
Finally, a Tesla with a price tag that won't give the middle class a stroke. It's not quite as beloved by owners as the Tesla Model X, but most of the 78 consumer reviews cited by Kelley Blue Book are favorable. It's a great all-electric car choice if you want to go fast — zero to 60 in 6.5 seconds.

Garage Chaos to Clean Setup: Smarter Storage for Skis and Boards
If you ski or ride, you already know: gear piles up fast. One board becomes three. A couple of skis become a quiver. Add boots, poles, gloves, and suddenly your garage turns into a chaotic mess of leaning gear and tangled edges. Most people just prop their gear against a wall or toss it in a corner—until it starts falling over, getting scratched, or warping out of shape. If you are serious about keeping your equipment dialed, a proper ski rack garage setup isn't just about saving space. It's about protecting performance. That's exactly what Rocker Ski Rack, based in Ashland, Oregon, is built for. Skis and boards don't just get damaged on the hill—they take hits in the off-season too. Letting them lean against a wall in your garage might seem harmless, but over time it can: Flatten your camber or rocker profile Create pressure points that weaken flex Trap moisture near bindings or edges Cause scratches, dings, or even delamination A simple fix? Get them off the floor. Rocker's snowboard holder for wall and ski racks mount directly into your garage studs, holding gear vertically, evenly supported, and away from damage. It's clean, functional storage that keeps your gear ready, not wrecked. Unlike plastic racks or makeshift DIY solutions, Rocker racks are made to do one thing, and do it well. Each snowboard holder for the wall and ski rack is handcrafted from powder-coated American steel, built to resist rust, corrosion, and garage wear. The arms are rubber-coated, so you are not grinding your edges or scraping your top sheets every time you rack or remove your gear. Everything sits gently, securely, and out of harm's way. They are simple. They are solid. And they are built to last longer than anything else in your garage. Whether your space is tight or you have got a full wall to work with, Rocker's racks are designed for straightforward installs and serious function. Each rack is: Stud-aligned (16' or 24') so you can mount it right into your wall without guesswork Shipped with mounting hardware and clear instructions Designed to be installed once and trusted for years Options include: Single Rack – Ideal for small garages or entryways Triple Rack – Three skis or boards, mounted on a wood backplate Quad Rack – Four arms, plus you can also hang helmets, gloves, or goggles Six Pack – For serious setups, cabins, or large families with a lot of gear No sagging, no leaning, no tripping over gear anymore. Rocker racks don't just store your gear—they make your garage look like it belongs to someone who rides. The matte black steel arms and stained hardwood backplates give a clean, organized look that feels more like a display than a storage unit. They are not flashy. They are functional. And they turn garage clutter into something that actually looks good on your wall. Every rack is handmade in Ashland, Oregon, by people who ride. You won't find particle board or off-the-shelf parts here—just tough, thoughtful design built for winter. Your skis and boards are built to ride. But how you store them in the garage matters just as much as how you treat them on the mountain. A proper ski rack garage setup or snowboard holder for the wall from Rocker gives your gear the protection it deserves, keeping it upright, dry, and damage-free all year long. Powder-coated steel. Rubber-coated arms. Stud-aligned install. Made in USA. This is the storage your gear should have had from day one. TIME BUSINESS NEWS

Leadership Falters As Climate Costs Soar And Time To Act Runs Out
CHARLEVOIX, CANADA - JUNE 9: In this photo provided by the German Government Press Office (BPA), ... More German Chancellor Angela Merkel deliberates with US president Donald Trump on the sidelines of the official agenda on the second day of the G7 summit on June 9, 2018 in Charlevoix, Canada. Also pictured are (L-R) Larry Kudlow, director of the US National Economic Council, Theresa May, UK prime minister, Emmanuel Macron, French president, Angela Merkel, Yasutoshi Nishimura, Japanese deputy chief cabinet secretary, Shinzo Abe, Japan prime minister, Kazuyuki Yamazaki, Japanese senior deputy minister for foreign affairs, John Bolton, US national security adviser, and Donald Trump. Canada are hosting the leaders of the UK, Italy, the US, France, Germany and Japan for the two day summit. (Photo by Jesco Denzel /Bundesregierung via Getty Images) London Climate Action Week is set to start, showcasing what urgent, inclusive climate action looks like when cities, financiers, and citizens unite. But the energy and innovation on display in London are being overshadowed by growing inaction from global leaders. Just days after the G7 failed to deliver any meaningful policy progress, and as the EU backpedals on its green regulation agenda, a troubling gap is emerging between local ambition and failures of international leadership. This retreat is happening at the worst possible moment. Climate damage costs are skyrocketing, climate science is sounding red alerts, and economic evidence points to a clear win: green investment can grow economies, create jobs, and protect communities. The world's most powerful leaders are not just missing an opportunity, they are magnifying a crisis. To grasp its scale, we need to look at the growing economic cost of inaction. The Price Of Delay And The Need For Leadership Bloomberg Intelligence has estimated that in the year to May 2025, the U.S. incurred close to $1 trillion (or around 3% of GDP) in direct climate-related costs from floods, wildfires, infrastructure damage, and insurance losses. Globally, heatwaves, droughts, and extreme weather are disrupting supply chains, inflating food prices, and undermining financial stability. Insurers have seen annual catastrophe losses surge tenfold since the 1980s. Premiums have skyrocketed, and coverage has shrunk, especially in wildfire and storm prone regions, exacerbating economic disruption and housing unaffordability. At the same time, the European Union appears to be shelving the Green Claims Directive, retreating under political pressure precisely when markets are demanding clear, consistent regulation to guide sustainable investment. This uncertainty discourages capital and undermines momentum. These setbacks comes as the OECD's 2025 Green Growth report shows that climate action could unlock $7.4 trillion per year in investment and job creation if scaled by 2030. Yet rather than harnessing this opportunity, many leaders are hesitating. Nowhere is this hesitancy more evident than in the recent action, or inaction, of the G7, whose decisions ripple far beyond their border G7 Paralysis And The Global Ripple Effect The G7's latest Chair's Summary reaffirms familiar goals, like limiting warming to 1.5°C but offered no timelines, targets, or tools to achieve it. 'Once again, the G7 chose safe, business-as-usual declarations over the bold, future-proof action we urgently need,' said Daniela Fernandez, CEO of Sustainable Ocean Alliance. 'The G7's latest climate commitments reflect a deeper issue,' added Ibrahim AlHusseini, managing partner of climate investor FullCycle. 'Global leaders are increasingly distracted by immediate geopolitical crises, and climate, still perceived as a medium to long-term risk, has slipped down the agenda. But this is a dangerous miscalculation.' He added: 'Delay is not neutral, it's an accelerant of future instability,' with direct consequences for supply chains, migration, and global financial systems. And it's not just experts calling for change. According to the 2024 People's Climate Vote, 80% of people globally want their countries to strengthen climate commitments, and over two-thirds support a fast transition from fossil fuels. Other surveys echoes this: 89% of people across 125 countries support stronger government action, yet many mistakenly believe they are in the minority. This public mandate for bold climate action stands in sharp contrast to the political hesitancy now on display. As political will may be stalling, another sector is responding. What was once viewed as an environmental issue is now a pressing financial risk. Climate Risk Becomes Financial Risk Inaction is not just costly, it is destabilizing. The financial consequences are already unfolding across insurance markets and beyond. "We have already seen residential and commercial insurance premiums rise and availability drop in recent years, in response to growing insurer losses," warns Tom Sabetelli-Goodyer, vice-president of climate risk at FIS. They are early signs of a broader, systemic threat. As climate impacts intensify, they are cascading through the financial system, affecting asset valuations, credit risk, and the stability of entire markets. Regulators around the world have begun to integrate climate risk into their frameworks, but last week, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, the global standard-setter for financial regulation, added its voice with a new framework for the voluntary disclosure of climate-related financial risks. While non-binding, the guidance marks a significant step and reinforces a clear message: climate risk is no longer just environmental, it's financial. As Julia Symon, head of research and advocacy at Finance Watch put it: 'Without clear, consistent data, supervisors are flying blind, unaware of the real risks building up on balance sheets.' The Climate Clock Is Ticking Scientific indicators confirm the urgency and the danger of delay. The 2024 Indicators of Global Climate Change report shows that the average global temperature from 2015 to 2024 reached 1.24°C above pre-industrial levels, with human activity responsible for nearly all of it. In 2024 alone, global temperatures spiked to 1.52°C, temporarily crossing the critical 1.5°C threshold. More troubling still, human-induced warming is accelerating at an unprecedented rate of 0.27°C per decade, the fastest rate ever recorded. At current emissions levels, the remaining carbon budget for staying below 1.5°C could be fully exhausted within just two to five years, depending on assumptions. Scientists also point to a growing Earth energy imbalance and early signs of amplifying climate feedback loops, such as ocean heat uptake and ice melt, which could further lock in extreme changes. The window for keeping global heating within safe limits is narrowing quickly. Yet even as time runs short, the economic case for prompt action continues to strengthen. Green growth offers a rare convergence of climate responsibility and financial return. Green Growth: A Trillion-Dollar Opportunity The OECD Green Growth report emphasizes that investing in clean energy and green infrastructure is not just responsible, its smart economics. Clean energy investment now outpaces fossil fuels, and 90% of global GDP is covered by net-zero targets. The report outlines how aligning financial systems with climate goals could unlock $7.4 trillion annually in investment by 2030. 'Green growth is an approach that seeks to harmonize economic growth with environmental sustainability and helps to deliver broader development benefits,' explains Jennifer Baumwoll, head of climate strategies and policy at UNDP. Far from hindering development, the green transition can generate resilient jobs, improve productivity, and enhance long-term competitiveness. In short, the report argues that climate action is not a cost but a catalyst for growth. Countries like Mongolia and Lao PDR are already demonstrating what this looks like in practice. In Mongolia, a green finance strategy, backed by the Central Bank and a new SDG-aligned taxonomy, has mobilized $120 million in climate-aligned investment, including the country's first green bond. Green lending is targeted to grow from 2% to 10% of all bank lending by 2030. Meanwhile, Lao PDR is advancing a national circular economy roadmap to reduce waste and resource use while unlocking economic opportunity. If fully implemented, it could create 1.6 million jobs and add $16 billion to GDP by 2050. These pragmatic, investment-ready models of climate action deliver real development gains. Their progress underscores a growing global divide: while emerging economies embrace opportunity, many developed nations are falling behind, precisely when their leadership is most needed. A Shrinking Window And Defining Test Of Leadership 2025 marks a critical juncture. Countries are expected to submit new national climate plans (NDCs 3.0) ahead of COP30 in Belém this November. Yet as of late June 2025, four months after the February deadline, only a small fraction had done so. Intended to reflect increased ambition following the Global Stocktake, most submissions remain overdue, and the ambition gap continues to widen. The UN expects a surge of last-minute filings, but tardiness isn't the only concern. Most existing plans fall short of aligning with the 1.5°C target, and the policy frameworks to deliver them at scale are still lacking. The challenge is not technical though but political. Instead of advancing, many major economies are retreating, weakening targets, delaying regulations, and rolling back commitments just as the case for bold action becomes stronger. Evidence shows that a well-managed transition can boost growth, reduce inequality, and build resilience. Yet that potential is being squandered. What's needed now is not just political courage, but real leadership, capable of driving structural reform and aligning finance with planetary boundaries. Decisive action today isn't only about avoiding catastrophe, it's about exercising leadership that can shape a more stable, equitable, and liveable world. The responsibility lies with those in power to act—not later, but now.

The 4.4% return this week takes Range Resources' (NYSE:RRC) shareholders five-year gains to 766%
For many, the main point of investing in the stock market is to achieve spectacular returns. While not every stock performs well, when investors win, they can win big. To wit, the Range Resources Corporation (NYSE:RRC) share price has soared 739% over five years. This just goes to show the value creation that some businesses can achieve. In more good news, the share price has risen 9.9% in thirty days. We love happy stories like this one. The company should be really proud of that performance! After a strong gain in the past week, it's worth seeing if longer term returns have been driven by improving fundamentals. Trump has pledged to "unleash" American oil and gas and these 15 US stocks have developments that are poised to benefit. To quote Buffett, 'Ships will sail around the world but the Flat Earth Society will flourish. There will continue to be wide discrepancies between price and value in the marketplace...' One flawed but reasonable way to assess how sentiment around a company has changed is to compare the earnings per share (EPS) with the share price. During the last half decade, Range Resources became profitable. That kind of transition can be an inflection point that justifies a strong share price gain, just as we have seen here. The graphic below depicts how EPS has changed over time (unveil the exact values by clicking on the image). It's probably worth noting that the CEO is paid less than the median at similar sized companies. It's always worth keeping an eye on CEO pay, but a more important question is whether the company will grow earnings throughout the years. Before buying or selling a stock, we always recommend a close examination of historic growth trends, available here.. As well as measuring the share price return, investors should also consider the total shareholder return (TSR). The TSR incorporates the value of any spin-offs or discounted capital raisings, along with any dividends, based on the assumption that the dividends are reinvested. It's fair to say that the TSR gives a more complete picture for stocks that pay a dividend. In the case of Range Resources, it has a TSR of 766% for the last 5 years. That exceeds its share price return that we previously mentioned. And there's no prize for guessing that the dividend payments largely explain the divergence! It's nice to see that Range Resources shareholders have received a total shareholder return of 30% over the last year. Of course, that includes the dividend. However, that falls short of the 54% TSR per annum it has made for shareholders, each year, over five years. The pessimistic view would be that be that the stock has its best days behind it, but on the other hand the price might simply be moderating while the business itself continues to execute. I find it very interesting to look at share price over the long term as a proxy for business performance. But to truly gain insight, we need to consider other information, too. Even so, be aware that Range Resources is showing 2 warning signs in our investment analysis , you should know about...
