I hope you're being nice...... I don't try to slam any auto maker..... AND YES I AM THANKFULL for all the HB members giving me a shot....
Except in my case !!!
I am waiting for Jay to move on, I mean really all the dealers are scared of him, I don't think it is because he is 7' and 310lbs, no it is because he has a certain way of making you feel good about what he is doing to you. When Ford gives Jay a shot GM will not stand a chance. I can see it now allthe Euro Ford cars coming in to the U.S. and Ford kicking the crap out of every and any othe manufacturer. I will give Jay a shot on any Ford product he can get his hands on if I am in the buying mood.
Anyone bashing either GM or Ford has half a brain. It's just a f'in car! Go ahead and be a cheerleader for you're brand. Keep it up and in 10 years you're only choice will be toyota or nissan. Wake up guys!
No way Ford started this and I will go down fighting with them !!!
Im not bashing or cheerleading any particular brand. I personally like the Fords have always had good luck with them. SOme havent.
But I do believe that "Employee Pricing" has done WAY more damge to the auto industry than good. And what we will see in the future is Quality of the products going down significantly to make up for the "discounts".
The Mfgrs. cant afford to give away cars and moake no $$ on them. so the WILL make the profits back up. and it will most likely be by cutting cost to meet a price point. so we WILL see the quality of american made vehicles decline. Sad to see, but instead of cutting costs by finding more efficient ways of rpoduction (like the foreign makers have) We will go from $25 dor panels to $15 door panels that look the same but will be built with cheaper materials.(for example)
Hopefully things change....because I dont want to tow my toys with a ToyotaBut if Ford Chevy Dodge make shiatty trucks SUV's that might be the ONLY option
Who had the most lemon laws I would like to know that too
I think the States have the Lemon Laws.

That would suck !!
My new HD LBZ and my wife's z71 tahoe are both great vehicles. We are both very pleased with them. I think GM's success this year had more to do with their lower price and eaiser financing. I had a friend who was a big manager over at a ford dealer years back and they all knew that the reason ford sold more f150's and rangers was because they were cheaper to buy and finance. I feel that GM makes a better product for my uses. I've had 8 full size personal and work trucks/suv's since 1995. As far a an engineering standpoint I feel that GM does things smarter than ford. But I would buy a Ford over any Jap POS!
The american automakers are running scared right now because of toyota, so I would tend to believe that their best is yet come. As a matter of fact I know the guy who does the turbo's for GM and Ford and it turns out that in 08 or 09 they both will have Twin turbo diesels and make 450-500 HP and 850 FTLBTQ! Just keep it american!
