I’m kind of disappointed with Ford
and the position they’ve taken.
The NFL has long tentacles.
I haven’t watched a single game
this season, and I’m taking the Raider
plate off the front of my Jeep.

I hear you. I don’t buy new Chevy’s, just used, my compromise. Toyota’s just don’t work for me, don’t find them attractive. I understand your concern(s) about GM.

Sorry, just bought a 2017 hatchback Cruze RS with a stick.

Check the VIN. The hatchback is built in Mexico.

That said, Ford is doing a good job of driving me back into GM's dealerships.

Yeah, I knew that getting into it. The sedans are built in Lordstown, OH. The manual transmissions are built in Austria, which impressed me.

I'd love to get a Ford truck, but...

Picking up a new vehicle tomorrow. IT will not be a Ford product. Was seriously considering a Lincoln MKX and Ford Edge Sport but not now because of their stance on NFL protests and the recent revelations about considerable donations from the Ford Foudation to get rid of Trump groups!

Bought a new Jeep Grand Cherokee.

I do have GM-—but older GM products.

1976 Chevy dually 1 ton truck with 348,000 ++ miles on it ( I put on over 250,000)

1979 Buick station wagon with over 213,000 miles on it—I put on 158,000 miles.

Both run fine—maintenance isn’t much of a problem because Summit Racing Parts finds me anything I need. Buick fuel pump==$22 last year. Set of shocks == under $100. Love those guys at Summit.

Trying to sell property in N Nevada & go to So Missouri. Intend to drive truck & tow horses in 4 horse trailer & have a friend drive Buick there.

"Now this is a True Patriot !"

On the surface it would seem so, but this is Louisiana (I live here), so I will not be surprised when we find out the Sheriff's brother-in-law owns a Jeep-Chrysler-Dodge dealership in an adjacent parish.

Nice. You don’t see mileage like that in the rust belt. It’s rare to see a vehicle > 200,000 miles.

I’m in the same boat on the NFL, but the Ford Foundation has no ties to Ford Motor Company.
