This is just kind of biased silliness. I understand that both you and Mad Dohc are big ford fans. You will both defend your brand. I really don't think it's fair to say that so many people are killed in non fords. Because there are so many cars other then fords out there. On the over all picture, I doubt that Fords safety record is much better or worse then any car company that has been around that long. He is not saying that Fords are unsafe vehicles. He is not saying anything about the actual quality of the cars. He is saying that the company was run by unethical people. People who chose dollars over safety issues that they could have prevented. Those people would have made the same decision working at any car company. The reason it is being laid upon Ford as a whole, rather then on the individuals responsible is because Ford is still very much a family owned company. The family made those horrible decisions, the company is part of the family.
