You must get more buyers by calling them garbage and stupid?
You know and I know that one-year old trucks need help. You buy down the interest rate with Ford's help. The new 2025 trucks will arrive soon. Will you offer 1.9% on a new 2025 truck?
I am sure you will move more inventory this year...
What did you not understand?
...the fact that Investing in depreciating assets inhibits wealth generation.
It means borrowing money at 9%+ is not a good deal for most families that are buying a car. I think the 72-month loan for a car/truck is nuts.
I say save money while getting interest on...
Good job ignoring the fact that Investing in depreciating assets inhibits wealth generation.
Didn't you say that Ford Credit was the reason that Ford stock is not working as an investment?
Why else would Ford stock be stuck at $12 with dividends paid or not?
I still say the Ford performance engineering department is worth more than Ford itself.
I remember back in 1997 when Ford sold it's Finance unit (Assoc. Financial Services) as well as an engineering unit.
They once owned...
I wish that I had an honest Ford dealer here like 13COBRA
I am stuck with a local Ford dealer that has salesman that can't speak in English. The Sales Manager thinks a Ford Mach-E is the same as a Ford Shelby GT350. Here:

I say upper Ford management also has no clue. The...
I agree. It's not fun to wait on the best car from Ford, but it will be worth the wait.
I did get a emissions form ($40) on my GT350. It was checking engine ($20) and renewing my tag ($20). This is the fastest and best GT350. It's Gen 2 with the GT500 block. I say the newer ones are clearly the...
I say the Talladega Mustang crowd was just what Ford wanted. They would get complaints due to crowded conditions otherwise.
There was also a big sold-out NASCAR crowd there. No hotel or rentals available. Those were sold out many months ago.
I stayed at a motel room in GA for one night which...
Tom,
*"I was really surprised when you sold your R."*
I was at the 60th at Talladega. I had no idea that you were there (I was home before the Sunday race),
I simply ran out of storage space, and a guy needs space to keep cars so the 95R is at a new place at an old collector here. He owns...
It is great to see some of you post again. We were a tight group.
I remember exactually when I sold my 1995 Cobra R (300 HP). I bought a 2019 Mustang GT350 (526 HP with better handling).
I remember Gingerman and other events. Heck yea that I wish I kept the 1995 Cobra R. We all make bad...
Bottom Line: A dealer can earn 3% up to 9% today (ROI =return on investment)?
A guy can easily earn 5% risk free in U.S. Treasures. The extra 4% comes with a lot of risk. Another 4% is $40K per each million invested.
Is it worth the extra headaches?
The Banks will kill you with fees and interest.
