Default Cars guide coty vote now.
Just got an email from cars guide telling me that voting is open for their COTY. The GT, Ranger and Fiesta are in the mix. Lets get them over the line.

Well that's what I am using now and because of some java/flash thingy I can't submit my vote, it's seriously annoying.

No Idea. Used to be in IT but am somewhat sceptical of new technologies so I generally wait 'till it is proven before I buy it. Couldn't be much worse than anything apple do. Despite popular opinion apples that I have used are very buggy or have bad design flaws. Hence the reason 99.9% of office buildings use an IBM compatible network.

The only Ford I voted for was the Ranger. Sadly, I couldn't vote for the other Fords because there were better choices available. I think I need to run and hide........
