Title: WTS FAST : All my Ford Stock !!!
Post by: ohgood on June 11, 2008, 09:26:47 PM
OK, it was a joke, but you may want to sell yours after you see what Ford is betting is something folks will want to buy... while filling up with $4.25 / gallon gas:

I think it's safe to say ^^^ the smart folks are SELLING THEIR STOCK AS FAST AS THEY CAN...

ya, $4.25 for gas, and the formerly big three are -still- hoping people will buy these POS guzzlers.

amazing.

without knowing the fuel economy, i am, willing to guess that it wouldnt be much worse, if at all, than any oterh similarly sized suv out there

That thing is f%$king hideous.   I'm gonna guess with a 250hp V6 struggling to haul it along it probably doesn't get the best or the worst economy out there.  Sell Ford fast and buy shaZam! tons of AAPL :icon_lol:

If I'm not mistaken that is one of the "crossover" vehicles that gets an whopping 24 mpg highway.  :icon_rolleyes: So this vehicle is perfect for all of those who like to roll around solo and save the environment... haha

I will buy it.
Ford looks bad now but they can and will be able to turn it around.

To counter the Ford Flex...

ok, they're finally thinking of making small cars in the U.S.

honda, toyota, nissan, hyundai, kia, mazda all already do it, and do it well.

when the big three (honda, toyota, hyundai; not ford, chrysler gm anymore !) decide to sell super efficient diesel cars, ford will be ten years behind as usual.

when BIG3 start selling diesel hybrids ford will say it's a fad, and not to pay attention. (15 years behind)

the quality will tell, as always. btw- jdpowers is a paid shill. ;)

The big three have always been a decade behind the power curve.

Just you wait, in the next couple of years Ford will be bought out and renamed "Happy Sun Motors"
