What's really impressive is the new Dodge Challenger.

When is the new Challenger on the market? Nice looking machine.

Someone else said Chevy should just repackage the '69 Camaro - same body, just add fuel injection, airbags updated, etc.

I too will never again own a Ford car or truck but I had forgotten about my Ford tractors which have been great. They were, however, built before engineering was computerized. These are 1951 and 1952 models.

Web site urging supporters not to buy Ford vehicles after the automaker said last December it would continue running advertisements in gay publications.

That's the dumbest thing I ever heard.

I like it when a boycott comes along on a product I wouldn't buy anyway...makes it easy!

What is with these companies driving the Gay agenda?

It is, but I can't stop confusing it with the "Charger" (that fricking 4-door abomination).

Challenger should do really well if they stay on schedule; they're basically a year ahead of Camaro -- either 2007 or 2008.

Mazda, Jaguar, Volvo, Astin Martin, Range Rover, Lincoln, Mercury (seems like I'm missing a couple)...all owned by Ford.

We own a 2000 F-350 diesel, 2004 F-350 diesel, and a 2006 Mustang GT. Wouldn't have anything else.

In other news, to compete with the Dodge Charger, Ford is to rebadge the Taurus, calling it the 2007, Shelby Mustang. (/sarcasm)

What on earth were the Dodge Boys thinking?

We went in our new Mazda.Well,they came out of the house and the first thing he said was I love your new Ford. Jeeze,we can`t win.I didn`t know it`s mostly Ford.

I know, and its a damn shame. I've owned three Mazda 626s (1988, 1999, and 2002.) Loved them all. When I realized the Mazda 6 was a Ford, I was through. I'm now looking at a Hyundai Sonata or a Nissan Altima.

you wonder if they will next boycott Shell or Exxon for selling gas to gays who buy the Fords. Think this is a bridge too for these groups.

Well, you're very close to getting it! The new Sonata has far nicer styling than the 2005 and it sure is hard to get a better deal for the money than Hyundai offers.

Nice tractors!

Its still hard to beat the AC WD 45, pound for pound, when it comes to HP and dependability.( also the highest lift capacity for the hydraulics)

It is supposed to be a complete redesign. The 2006 model year was the Alabama plants first year in production.
I looked at them but my family is WAY to big for it.
