The Camry is probably made in Kentucky while the Ford is probably made in Mexico.
The cops in our area -- both local and CHP -- have replaced their Crown Victorias with Police Interceptor Ford Explorer SUVs. These are 'assembled' in Chicago but where the components come from is anyone's guess.

AFAIK they're not in the running for any infrastructure gear. Given time they might be able to ramp up and become competitive but there's a serious shortage of engineers and we're not importing any (nobody in their right mind would come to the US on an H1-B these days unless they're desperate, we're not taking people from Iran and being Chinese can be like skating on thin ice these days).
