So the 3.5 is made in Mexico, and the 5.0 is made in Canada. I wonder about the 3.3 and 2.7... No more engines made in America anymore?

Yes the 3.5EB has been made in Mexico for a while. I believe the 2.7EB and 2.0EB come from Valencia Spain.

I don't know what's up with that sticker but the 3.5 EB are made in Cleveland. 2.7 made in Lima. 5.0 in Windsor. The only engines I'm aware of made in Mexico are the 2.5 and 6.7 deisil.
