Ok. Does, or does not, the phrase "seig heil" or even just "heil" have a Nazi connotation/implication in American English society, regardless of its simple and harmless denotation in literal translation from the German?

It's the name of the truck (or trailer) manufacturer, founded by one Julius Heil. http://www.heil.com
