I am pi---d off. What was said in the TH made sense, and is about a 180 degrees turn from the direction we were going. So why am I pi---d off? Maybe because the company shouldn't lost its way in the first place (I blame you, Bill Ford). Maybe because... — read more

You Ford guys need to brainstorm and figure out a way to grab the free PR News GM is generating with their truck tailgates that fall open. With Ford's stock hovering around 11 bucks these days, Ford needs all the free PR News they can get.
