After taking a few marketing classes in college (finance major) I can defintiely tell you that marketing is GM's weak point. Maybe if they had better marketing strategies for the Camaro (or some marketing period!) It would still be around...but the fall of the camaro can't be soley justified on marketing alone. Hmm...maybe I shall get a marketing degree as well and work for GM! [Big Grin]

Speed kills, Drive a Ford and live forever.

Have you driven over a Ford lately?

Bumper sticker for a Ford--This car is constipated, It won't pass anything.

90 percent of all Ford's made in the last ten years are still on the road, The other 10 percent made it home.

Nothing runs like a Ford. Thank God.

Buy a Ford and you buy the best, Drive a mile and walk the rest.

Q: How is a golf ball different from a Ford?
A: You can drive a golf ball 200 yards.


Q: Why are there sidewalks beside most streets?
A: So Ford owners will have a nice place to walk home.

Why do people buy Fords? Because they are Affordable.

Q: Did you hear about the new Ford Trucks?
A: They come with tailgate heaters to keep your hands warm when you are
pushing them home.

Ford is now installing voice-activated cell phones in their cars and SUVs. Do you know how these things work? If you say, "office," it'll call your office; you say, "home," it'll dial your home; and if you say "Firestone," it'll dial 911.
-Jay Leno


Q: Why is Ford making their trucks more aerodynamic?
A: To save the Dodge gas when pulling the Ford home.

Q: How much can a Ford pull?
A: As much as the Dodge towing it can.

Q: What do you call a Ford at the top of a hill?
A: A miracal.

Q: What's the diffrence between a Ford and a Yugo?
A: The name.

Q: Why do Ford trucks ride up so high?
A: So it's eaiser to crawl underneath.

Q: What's the diffrence between a Ford and a salesman?
A: You can slam the door on a salesman.

Wayne sent me the next 11 Ford sayings. Thanks Wayne...

This song in the 60's was written while following a Ford. Smoke gets in your eyes.. By the Platters... Just kidding.

If you are following someone driving a Ford and you get seperated. How do you get back on their trail? Follow the smoke.

When you see a cloud of smoke at a ball game, you know everyone is leaving driving Fords.

Ford oweners are exempt from paying the EPA pollution fines.

What's wrong with your car? Well the carburetor don't carb, the generator won't gin, the fan don't fan, and the pistons, they don't work either. You must have a Ford.

Why do newer models of Fords last longer? The parts come from Japan.

Why do most people think Fords are fast? When they take off, theirs a cloud of smoke, but not from the tires.

How far will a Ford go? Depends on how many junk yards you can stop at to get parts.

When you are on a long trip with a Ford what do you tell the service station attendant when you pull up to the gas pumps? Check the gas, and fill it up with oil!

Why do you never have to change the oil in a Ford? It changes it's self, when you add oil daily.

Why do Fords never rust? Metal with oil on it don't rust.
