Your opinions on Fords?
I can't stand Fords. The new mustangs looks horrible, though the focuses are decent, but they coppied their style its nothing original. I'll give originality to the mustangs though. And overall Ford has inferior quality when compared to foreign cars. Your opinions?

I can agree with you somewhat... I can't stand the new Mustangs either... they keep getting larger and larger with each model changing year.

I started being somewhat anti-Ford in my younger years after running into a few unfriendly Ford fans and then when Ford neutered the Mustangs in '93. But, in recent years I've been liking them again. I don't share your dislike for the new Mustangs. I think they are brilliant and many of my still anti-Ford friends have said something like "I hate to admit it but those new Mustangs look good"

Some of the newer stangs look good... I absolutely love the new orange and light green ones they have! Most of the ones I don't like are the convertibles. With their tops up, they don't look like a muscle car... they look more like a sedan.

I highly disagree. I think the new mustangs are amazing. They are by far my favorite sports car (in my budget range haha) I think they look crazy good.

I have to say I prefer GM cars, but I won't go as far as to say I "hate" Fords. Not much of a fan of Ford cars, but I've gotten to drive a couple of newer Ford trucks (used to work auctions) and was pretty impressed.

I have to say, I hated Fords until I owned one. The only problems with my Topaz so far have been fuel pump failure and rusted out brakelines, the engine is underpowered but unbelievably solid. Good cheap transport, it's what put Ford on the map in the first place.

I really like Ford and GM. Yeah, Ford has had some more problems financially, but I wouldn't be caught dead driving a Toyota or Honda.

haha, I love American cars... I'm one of those guys who says he "drives American because he is American."... and no, I'm not a redneck, I'm from the north. I don't know, I just don't like all these hybrids they're pushing and the overall image that I "care about reliability and the environment." That's not my style. Not to say that they're bad companies, but the Lexus IS-F is the first actual performance car Toyota has built since the end of the Supra... and the heads of Toyota didn't want it built. I'm very performance minded, and new Hondas and Toyotas don't make anything that wows me.

I think compareing American vehicles to foriegn vehicles can go on forever.. But american sports cars don't need turbos to get their high numbers.

I'm guessing you have the off road mid pipe?

1 word: CRAP!!! I almost died from a poorly engineered Ford Ranger. The only exceptions are the Mustang and GT
