Real news is ignored by the American media. Only the politically inspired news is trumpeted and milked for every additional dollar and vote it can garner.

Ford was always good for making wild claims by comparing their stuff to luxury cars. Remember the Grenada campaign in the 70's.

I have a '78 280SE. It sure ain't no Granada, thankfully.
