Here’s my 2 cents. Jaguar and Land Rover were always foreign made automobiles. After Ford bought the company the “Be American-Buy American” crowd said I can buy a Jag or Land Rover now because it’s made by Ford. What bullsh*t that was! In my opinion both of those cars are nothing more then overpriced status symbols. I wouldn’t own either one of them or a Honda, or Toyota, or Nissan.

Ford lost a ton of money on the deal and good for them. They should have continued to do what they do best and that’s make Ford cars and trucks.

 

I was worried it was the FORD brand!!!!

 

I guess it was for a few years.

 

Yeah, but I mean FORD

 

At $7-8.00/share for Ford everyone should be worried.

 

You're lucky Ford is even around to sell anything to TATA or to the Communist Chinese. There are a myrid of reasons we have gotten ourselves into this mess but WE, as a country, have made India and theRed Chinese the economic powerhouses they are today.

LOU DOBBS is right, we have sold out our national interests!

 

Ford did good by dropping this dead weight. They are both "jag and landrover"automakers with bad reputations that needed to go. They are english cars not american cars. If anything the sale should help the American Economy buy helping Ford get back on its feet.

 

Well Mazda is really strong in the U.S. right now and they are owned by Ford. They probably make more off of them right now then they do with thier trucks.

I don't know about you guys, but the F150 just seems extremely overpriced these days.

 

Mike,

Keep in mind that MSRP means nothing these days. They have so many rebates etc...... And speaking from experience on F150's I have 3 famliy members that have F150's and my best friend has one too. All are used to tow boat and trailers etc..and exceed 100K miles. With no problems. Overall its a great product.

 

Our 2002 F-250 crew cab diesel 4x4 has 120,000 miles on it, most towing 10-12000 horse trailers and it has been a great truck. They sell today for about what I paid in 2002.
