Wonder what could have been... Reply #60 – January 29, 2008, 04:38:38 PM QuoteOh Paul now your crying GM loveSince when? I've never claimed to love GM. In fact I would be VERY hard pressed to ever own another GM product considering my past experiences with their products. The only GM I ever owned that I liked was my very first car that wiped out a cam lobe and developed a rod knock all before 100K.QuoteFunny my other project car is a GMHypocrisy knows no bounds......bash on someone else for expressing his view on a certain engineQuote from: CougarSENo one here gives a flying shiznit about an LSX engine. If an LSX had a dick ABM would be all over it.yet state how you have a GM project car all within a matter of hours.....You're just proving my point. Your attack is not at the LSX engine. It's directed at ABM and now apparently me because you feel I'm defending him...You have been a voice of reason in the past. Step back, take a break, and breathe. It's a PM issue and really has no place in a thread. Take your own advice:Quote from: CougarSETake a chill pill and quit fighting each other. I couldn't care less how ABM got discharged or retired or what the fvck ever and I bet no one else here does either. Talk about it again and I'm sure this thread will be locked just as quick as ABM's hating threads.Do either one of you remember how it was a year ago here? Two years ago? How none of you jumped down each others throats? I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that its not an option that you do. Remember it and start acting that way again.QuoteI'm stating my "opinion" about the praises of three cars that got phased out. Nothing wrong with that. Did I state anything about your stance on certain vehicle products?! NO. Quote Selected

Wonder what could have been... Reply #66 – January 29, 2008, 06:07:57 PM I don't really give a rat's ass about Crown Vic's, Mustangs, or Camaro's, or anything beyond my Tbird, and my F-150.Cars are...well....disposable. Work on 'em, blow 'em up, wreck 'em, smash 'em.I'm through and through Ford...but even I notice when stock Chevy powered vehicles are faster than some modified Fords.:flame:Don't hate GM cause Ford has their collective heads up their asses!Otherwise:My opinion is that I have no opinion.

Wonder what could have been... Reply #67 – January 29, 2008, 07:18:05 PM Think about it Ford! Bring over the Mondeo, Focus, and Ka from Europe, the Falcon from Australia, keep the Fusion and dump the Taurus/500, dump the US Focus, keep updating the Mustang and F150. They'd so good! Not to mention they're CAFE would go up considerably! Quote Selected
Wonder what could have been... Reply #68 – January 30, 2008, 07:15:19 AM Well, take a step back there. If we import EVERY good car Ford makes in other markets, who's left to work in North America? I agree, they need to start using global cars, but they have to retool here first. Imagine if we replaced the cars made in US/CAN for imported cars. No one would be able to buy them, because there are now tens of thousands of domestic Ford employees out of work.Bring them in slowly, and retool our factories to build them ourselves.*edit*I just saw something interesting in a C&D Page-a-day calendar. A 1928 Duesy Straight Eight. DOHC and 4 valve. Look who's using yesterday's tech now. Quote Selected
