Yeah, Ford owns all of those. Lincoln, Mercury, Nissan (you forgot about them, Mr. Genuis), Toyota (forgot about them), Lexus (them, too), and Infnity all copy each other. There's not a lot of originality going around the block.
I did forget about jaguar. But No Mr genius Toyota is Toyota Ford has nothing to do with them. No Ford does not Own Lexus. and no Ford does not own Nissan. And guess what they dont own infinity either. Boy you are way off! Stick to discussions related to idiots like yourself!
Actually, they all are owned by Ford. Lookit the similarities between the Lexus X470 (I think that's what it's called) and the Toyotar Land Cruiser. Same goes with the Infinity Q45(or summat like that) and the Nissan Maxima. Now, obviously the cars wouldn't be similar if they weren't owned by the same bigger company, right? That company would happen to be Ford, whether you'll admit it or not. Just like Psion is a smaller division of Toyota, Toyota is now a smaller division of Ford.
[Now it outsells chevy why?ill tell you its because they are freakn cheap and therefor cheaply made.]
Well you admited it! oh as far as being built cheap I will refer you to the Corsica,Cavelier. Now what do you have?
He was referring to Fords, smart one. You referred us to the Corsica and Cavalier---okay, I'll refer you to the Focus, Topaz, Taurus, and Fiesta, to name a few.
You are welcome all viewers! I am glad I could contribute to making this discussion worth a crap. Please hold the applause. If you want a challenge in the future. Compare Gm-Ford Instaed of compaing an entire Company to 1 brand of vehicles! Thers Just no contest which one is better. The hilljacks that spit chew will argue to there death that chevy is better. Do you know why they think Chevy's are better? They claim that they are easier to work on. Must have to do it alot for it to be of any Importance. Oh and as for the Idiot who complains about his Expeditions Gas mileage.........ITS AN EXPEDITION YOU DOPE! Check out a Suburban (Idiot) Maybe if you were so Fuel Economy Concious you should have Bought Somthing a Bit smaller. Like an Escape. And Chevy<Dodge, Ford will all fall apart if you Drive em like an Idiot! Its your Own Fault....Just be Glad it wasnt a chevy! It Probably wouldnt be running at all!
Wow. You really are stupid. Just like Ford is one company, GM is one company. Just like Fords owns smaller companies, so does GM.
Your argument on Chevys being easier to fix--umm...further proof of you being an idiot. If Fords are harder to fix, that shows that they aren't designed to last longer, because they can't be maintained as easily. That also means that when they do break, they'll cost a lot more to fix, and half the time won't even be worth fixing anymore because their value has dropped low enough. That contributes to why more Fords are sold than anything else: because they are hard enough to fix where the person would just be better off buying a new car.
I didn't buy the Expedition, my parents did. Why in the hell would I buy such a crappy car? And, I said 15 MPG at best. That's on a lucky day. It's more like 11 MPG in reality. 15 MPG is about the average for a GM SUV (we used to own a Denali, so I do know where I'm coming from.). I wouldn't have bought an escape, either. I'd have gotten a Honda. Those get better gas mileage than GM or Ford, hands down.
The Ford has fallen apart from normal wear and tear. Nearly every Ford I've seen has. See, your Ford lasts because you probably barely drive it.
