Who else you going to buy? Jeep and Chrysler are owned by the VBN Agnelli family (Fiat). GM is just as bad. Ford was the last hope, other than Tesla.
>>DO NOT BUY FORD!!
Sorry, but no one else makes Mustangs.
Ford does sell cars and truck in Mexico too.
Everybody gave it a shot. NAFTA has not done a damn thing but destroy us.
The argument was Mexico needs jobs. Well, many have them but go south of that and they are bused right on up here.
Time for it to end.
Maybe a Subaru, made in Indiana? Their sales are growing fast. We have both a 2009 Outback, and a 2008 Ford Explorer. While both will get you where you need to go in (most) difficult conditions, and the Explorer is bigger / can tow more, in most respects, the Outback is a much better executed / thought out vehicle. My biggest complaint about the Outback is cramped space in front — a little too much the “cockpit approach, IMO. And changing the spark plugs in the Boxer engine is a bugger.
>>Much like how FR has ruled all major retail establishments off limits, we’re well on our way to boycotting all automotive names, LOL
I’m pretty sure that Ford was the last one. LOL. I’ve had a total of 8% in raises in all the years from 2008 to 2014, and that’s more than most working Americans have recieved. I can’t keep up with the rising costs of UAW labor.
Feel better now douche?
Is Ford going to lower the price for their cars since they’re saving so much on labor? I’m not holding my breath.
At the Bildeberg meeting in 1991 David Rockefeller walked up to Bill Clinton and asked him what he thought about NAFTA.
Clinton replied, “If it’s important to you, Mr Rockefeller, it’s important to me.”
Rockefeller replied, “Thank you, Mr President.”

High American union labor. No secret and has been the case for decades. That’s why most of our stuff is made in China and elsewhere.
He was already chastised on another thread by Jr for that common core garbage,he has a psycho loathing for trump.
...and, by the way...
My heart is still mostly with Cruz, but there is one thing that I really, REALLY like about Trump.
He has a killer instinct.
I don’t want a President who thanks Iranians for humiliating our troops, or a President who won’t let our forces in Afghanistan go on the offense against the Taliban. I don’t want a President who will do nothing when cartel members in Mexico shoot at our Border Patrol, or who does absolutely nothing about the southern invasion.
I want a President, whoever he is, who takes no prisoners, who goes for the throat, for the kill-shot against anyone who harms this country.
And I want him to laugh and toast their demise when the enemies of the United States are lying dead.
I want a President who doesn’t just kill Jihadis but then orders their corpses decapitated and then buried with pigs — and then proudly announces it.
I want someone who unleashes the sharks.
Dishonest Ford.
First World prices for Third World goods.
BMW isn’t any more expensive than other cars. You might be pleasantly surprised.
why do you care about UAW trash?
I like your post!
Thanks for the Apple info. I’ll stop bashing Apple for their China manufacturing. I thought it was for cost. I can see labor and regulations killing innovation.
and Geffen is the asshole that put Nobama on the front page.
Watch their genius dance now.
I, too, have been on every side of most issues as I went through my political transformation. I was once a pot-smoking liberal. People change.
