12_Guy Posted October 28 Posted October 28 Dodge - it’s not a name but a warning sign. It’s literally right there on the tailgate - Dodge the parts that fall off going down the road. 4 Quote

dale560 Posted October 29 Posted October 29 The best ford thing I ever heard was from an old guy who ran auto parts store in town. He worked at gas station after it closed down. He looks seriously at me one day and states do you know 98% of fords are still on the road. Do you know what that means? I said no looking puzzled. He said 2% actually made it home. I laughed and thought good one. I think there was a commercial to that extent or something from back then. 5 Quote
acem Posted October 29 Posted October 29 Interesting thing to ponder. Ford is the only one of the big three to have survived from its founding intact Chrysler is part of the Fiat group with CNH and many others. GM went away in 2009 and a new company was formed. Old GM Stockholders and bondholders were left with nothing when the new GM was formed. I'm an old fan of Chrysler products but I have to give it to Ford for taking care of business. 3 Quote

I would buy a ford now. They have better colors and interiors than gm. I absolutely hate the 2023 ram v6 that is my work pickup. I don’t know why I dislike it. Small door crew cab stripped down v6 auto but it gets good mileage has decent power but it just has some quirks in the knobs and stuff I just don’t like. No issues or stuff like that just like trying to get a IH guy to drive a John Deere I guess. 2 Quote
acem Posted October 29 Posted October 29 I like the dodge challengers. A friend has a scat pack 392 hemi. It's crazy fast. 1 Quote
stronger800 Posted October 29 Posted October 29 I’d almost run against that challenger with my ecoboost F150, I bet it’d be close. I like the looks of those cars. Good friend of mine is provided a personal truck through his work, with a rather lofty budget. He typically a ford guy, but he was offered a deal on a Ram, any Ram, that somehow put some extra money in his pocket, so he ordered up the whatever nicest quad cab ram is. (He didn’t get the $120k hellcat motor one) but he got a nice one. All of $70k msrp anyway I’m sure. had it about 6 months…hated it….ordered another ford. He said the same thing about the knobs and switches. And the door handles and hinges. When we first bought new trucks in the ‘90s, I bought a dodge, because I thought it looked meaner than the new at the time ‘97 ford f150 body style. And it was cheaper. He bought the ‘97 ford. When he ordered the ‘26 ford limited he said, you know how you bought that old dodge because it was cheaper back in the day? -well they still are, and it’s for a reason 1 Quote

Unfortunately the same can be said for Mother Deere. However shrewd business practices don’t always mean a better product. 2 Quote

Do a bit of research on who Henry Ford (along with other American mega corporations) supported in the 1930's. 😉 2 Quote

When i was coming hone from the Czech days festival a group of car’s passed me on the highway that had just left the car show . A yellow Hellcat with black stripes pulled up beside me following a corvette. I was going 65 MPH. The Hellcat squared up beside the corvette and the race was on . That Hellcat already going 65 floored it and left rubber for about 200 feet . The Corvette was no match , not even close. 1 Quote
