Ford Reports Decline in Sales

The Wall Street Journal ^ | January 3, 2008 | MIKE BARRIS

[Baladas]

The AFA boycott appears to be working.

[mmyers]

Ford Dealers closing left and right!

[Juan Medén]

I agree. And as long as Ford continues to support and fund same-sex partnerships, I won’t be partnering with Ford.

[perfect_rovian_storm]

Take off all that fugly chrome on all the new models. Then maybe someone will buy em.

[mrmargaritaville]

it’s actually plastic that looks like chrome

[Jagman]

Last one out of the “Glass House” hit the lights and sober Edsel up!

[ConorMacNessa]

That new Lincoln Navigator goes far beyond ugly - it’s hideous!

[Thrownatbirth]

Here are some satisfied Ford customers.

[Phantom Lord]

The AFA boycott appears to be working.

Yep. Probably as effective as their boycott of Disneyworld.

[af_vet_rr]

The AFA boycott appears to be working.

Ford's boycott of its customers' needs and wants is working much better.

[zerosix]

Yes, though even some of their own employees are "boycotting" their awful social policies.

It's a real shame that the once great company that gave America the Model A & T and the Thunderbird, now chooses to link arms with Boy George, et al and give up on American's families and their overall love of trucks!

So sad for all of their loyal employees and retirees whose hearts are breaking over the slide to the left.

[Joe Boucher]

Hey ford, quit support for the homosexual agenda and stop trying to make vehicles cheaper. Try making them better. And again, quit the support for the homsexual agenda cause even if you have the best vehicles many of us won’t buy if our money goes to perverted causes.

[Antoninus]

I hear they are responding by doubling their ad buys in homosexual publications.

[Last Dakotan]

I have a buddy who has worked managing a tier 1 auto company for many, many years. He says Ford is dead business walking. Expect a Chinese buyout soon.

[AlaskaErik]

I had a 1957 Ford pickup, a 1961 Thunderbird and a 1968 Ranchero. All three were pieces of junk and I haven’t bought a Ford since.

[Manic_Episode]

They'll probably blame the economy.

I sure love my Chevy Express 3500 I bought a few months ago.

[G.Mason]

What could possibly be the matter? Not enough homosexuals?

[EEDUDE]

I bought a new Ford Taurus in 1988 when “Quality was Job One”.

2 transmissions and 1 short block replaced before 60K miles, and the dealer was nasty about doing the warranty work.

Screw em. I’ll never buy another Ford product.

[Neoliberalnot]

Ford needs to pander more to the homosexual behaviorists to enhance their sales. SARC

[Preachin']

“I’ll never buy another Ford product.”

I bought a Ford Windstar in 1995, which was the first year they made it. We put 250,000 miles on it, but went through two engines and three transmissions. I started out getting 29 MPG in the Windstar, and when we gave it away (12 years later), we were only getting about 14-15 MPG. I will never buy another Ford.
