Santiago Esparza/ The Detroit News
Detroit — Fortune Magazine's July 4 issue extols 100 great things about America, and Detroit is ranked 14th on the list of things that we hold dear about our country.
For the second consecutive year, Fortune has selected things about the United States it believes makes it great.
This year, Detroit is ranked No. 14 for its "rise, fall, and — we hope — rise again."
Detroit is sandwiched between Caterpillar construction equipment at No. 13 and the Kindle electronic reader at No. 15 on the list.
Opportunity was ranked No. 1, followed by the country's interstate freeway system and the Sears Tower.
No. 98 on the list is the television show "Jeopardy," followed by the Pulitzer Prize and the movie "National Lampoon's Vacation."
