There is a default country selection for each make, sometimes based on the model. But there are probably missing models in the code which handles Chevy. I should check that too...

Some are correct, some have the info missing and some still have the Origin and or Built in as USA where it should not be (I have noticed the same on some Chevy LUVs It seems that some of the time if the make is "Chevrolet" the origin is listed as USA.)
as far as I know the only difference between most US- spec and CDN- spec vehicles is the Instrument cluster. At least this is true on the Trackers as I have imported 3 Canadian spec Trackers/Sunrunners to the US and this was all I had to change to register them

We often use "made for USA" in that case, as Canada has US-specs models even if not especially required (I am right?)
We can indicate "made for CDN" if the movie was made in Canada but it is a case-by-case thing unfortunately.
About the changes, I tought that most were already ok in these, but I'll do a batch-update then... when I have few minutes (I have so many things to do "when I have few minutes"...)

I was looking through some of the Geos and noticed that the Origin and Made For flags are not consistant so I figured I could shed some light on the subject so It can be fixed.
