No one is here to refute that. Dave wanted information saying that Chevy knew gas tanks would explode on their pickups or some other example like that.

I'm the only one to comment on the thread's length, so I'm sure he was directing that at me to some extent.

Yes, but I was messing with you. In the end, there's no point in hurling insults in this thread and you seem to be the only one doing it.

Even you could look at those gas tanks and realize they are dangerous, do you really need a document from GM to tell you they knew about it. Come on! Like I said before, Either Ford didn't lie well enough or they didn't shred their documents quick enough, but they are no different then any of the other manufacturers.

I'm not going to comment any further in this thread. I've called him Einstein tonight. If I hurt his feelings with that, I'm sorry.

Wow, your done trying to educate the world on Fords murderous tactics.

And yes, I was questioning my existence since you thought I was stupid. Your opinion of me matters so much.

Why don't you anti-ford fucks respond to any of the listed links of other manufacturers fucking up?
So how exactly do you extend a wheelbase 2 inches on a suv that is based off of a truck (ranger - explorer)? Maybe you know why the firestone tires where failing? Just to let you know the suggested tire pressure in an explorer is 28psi to help prevent roll over. Unfortunatly Firestones tires where unable to withstand operation at that psi.
How about chevy ladder frame trucks? You know the ones that look like they are going down the road sideways. Maybe you all are familiar with the stearing boxes ripping off of the frames.
Maybe you also new the titan is built off of the f-150. And maybe you can tell me how the manufacturer that has the number one selling vehicle in the WORLD is going to die.

I haven't hearad this before, can you link proof of this?

If you're referring to the F-series truck, I am pretty sure GM outsold them last year, and probably will again this year. I agree they won't die, but I disagree that they are still the top-selling manufacturer, and if they are right now, they won't be soon....their quality is going down the toilet as fast as GM's design team.

The F series was still the best seller by 200,000 last year. I'm sure it won't be long before The Camry is there though. It won't be a truck for much longer, that's for sure.
