This Was Suposed To Be Funny But Ford Sucks So Bad It Pissed Me Off

[Pitbullx]

it sucks. Ford is so much cooler than toyota too. The only good car toyota makes are supras.

"cooler" in the eyes of rednecks and most good ol boys

Toyota makes a better product and their dealers and company look out for buyers

the only ford that I would think about driving would be a shelby gt500 the rest can eat a diyack

i've got a ford with over 300k miles :confused:

i should dip that thang in bronze and make a lawn ornament out of it.

but you've rebuilt that shit how many times now?

mmkay

Chevy FTW

Ford has the GT50... Saleens mustang rocks the shit out of Fords GT...

Toyota has the supra which is a horsepower monster for a decent price if you plan to tune the shit out of it. the celica's are nice aswell.

qualitly is with toyota... i can honestly say that almost all US car companies except maybe Cadaliac is making shittly look cars.

I'd take a corolla over a focas any day....

A Japanese company ( Toyota ) and an American company (Ford Motors) decided to have a canoe race on the Missouri River Both teams practiced long and hard to reach their peak performance before the race.

On the big day, the Japanese won by a mile.

The Americans, very discouraged and depressed, decided to investigate the reason for the crushing defeat. A management team made up of senior management was formed to investigate and recommend appropriate action.

Their conclusion was the Japanese had 8 people rowing and 1 person steering, while the American team had 7 people steering and 2 people rowing.

Feeling a deeper study was in order; American management hired a consulting company and paid them a large amount of money for a second opinion.

They advised, of course, that too many people were steering the boat, while not enough people were rowing.

Not sure of how to utilize that information, but wanting to prevent another loss to the Japanese, the rowing team's management structure was totally reorganized to 4 steering supervisors, 2 area steering superintendents and 1 assistant superintendent steering manager.

They also implemented a new performance system that would give the 2 people rowing the boat greater incentive to work harder. It was called the 'Rowing Team Quality First Program,' with meetings, dinners and free pens for the rowers. There was discussion of getting new paddles, canoes and other equipment, extra vacation days for practices and bonuses. The pension program was trimmed to 'equal the competition' and some of the resultant savings were channeled into morale boosting programs and teamwork posters.

The next year the Japanese won by two miles.

Humiliated, the American management laid-off one rower, halted development of a new canoe, sold all the paddles, and canceled all capital investments for new equipment. The money saved was distributed to the Senior Executives as bonuses.

The next year, try as he might, the lone designated rower was unable to even finish the race (having no paddles,) so he was laid off for unacceptable performance, all canoe equipment was sold and the next year's racing team was out-sourced to India .

Sadly, the End.

Here's something else to think about: Ford has spent the last thirty years moving all its factories out of the US , claiming they can't make money paying American wages.

TOYOTA has spent the last thirty years building more than a dozen plants inside the US .

The last quarter's results:

TOYOTA makes 4 billion in profits while Ford racked up 9 billion in losses.

Ford folks are still scratching their heads, and collecting bonuses.

IF THIS WEREN'T SO TRUE IT MIGHT BE FUNNY

Did you know that Toyota has more actual cash on hand than any company in the world? Everything they build facilty wise is paid for, all advertising paid for, race sponserships paid for. No loans. They don't pay out one cent in interest to banks. I feel bad for the big three auto makers in America. All three are showing huge losses, it's surely going adversely effect thousands of Americans. Thank goodness Toyota has been putting in manufacturing facilities. I have no quams with either as far as cars go. This story is just a good example of mismanagment in big US business. I'm sweating bullets over what the FDIC is going to do with some of the big banks over the mortage crisis in the upcoming months.

hahahahha that was good! Thanks for posting it, I've never ever been a ford guy, I would buy a toyota though, very unlikely because Honda makes so much better cars LOL

Though I think it would be cheaper to build a Mustang than a Supra..

HAHAHA. I love how everyone posts, oh the GT500 and the Saleen's kick so much ass. Too bad it took men who actually knew what they were doing to make a Ford good. You can rave all day about the Cobra's and the Saleen's and the GT500's but the fact still is it wasn't Ford's doing. It was in the hands of guys like Carroll Shelby. So in my eyes you couldn't actually call them a Ford product. Yes, I know you will argue they still produce them but who done the first one? Not Ford, so it's technically not their product. And you can argue until your blue in the face but I bet (5% of people would claim it if it was them. ie. You done all the work Shelby did then when Ford produced it. You sure wouldn't say sure take my ideas and engineering for free, and don't sweat putting my name on it. Yea right, this is why Shelby and Yenko made as much money as they did.
