Buying a new car from a dealership is a terrible investment. It's like buying a hooker. You get screwed for as long as you make the payments. The smarter move is to purchase vehicles at auction. Let someone else eat the depreciation. My first car was a Ford and my last car was a Ford, but when Ford flew the North Vietnamese flag over corporate headquarters when they opened a plant in Viet Nam I wrote Ford and told them I would never buy another Ford. I saw too many of my brother Marines maimed and killed fighting in Viet Nam to tolerate such a slap in the face by Ford. Especially when there remain over 2000 POW/MIA's unaccounted for from the Viet Nam war. Semper Fi

Ford opened a plant in Nam? Shows how well the media covers important events...

Semper Fi.

I didn't know Ford opened a plant in Vietnam. Dang it, I liked Ford trucks and now I will never ever buy a Ford product again.

Damn. It seems Ford is all about "diversity" these days. But it's getting to the point where I can't really buy a vehicle that isn't all about "diversity". Might as well buy a Toyota, at least they work fine, last a long time. /cynicism off/

There are far more MIA in Korea and even in WW II. There are actually less than 2,000 MIA in VN now, and the massive excavation projects we have there are only succeeding in unearthing bone fragments(AT BEST) The odds are those missing will NEVER BE FOUND because their bodies were incinerated or lost forever in shifting muds and rain.

The entire MIA/POW(there are no POWs) issue with Viet Nam is about us being "sore losers." There is no similar outcry for South OR North Korea to comply with ridiculous search and excavation projects in order to earn aid or trade benefits. Why? because we didn't "lose" to NK.
