The days of treating private customers like the big three use to are over. Punters have too much choice now on the market to put up with that.
you never let up do you! why do you only participate in threads where there is an opportunity to stick the boots in to ford. i think you could be on the wrong website.

To be fair, we don't really know what Ford, Holden etc have sold, we only have model data. To say Private buyers have walked away from Ford based on one model in a dropping sector is a bit much..

Dont forget Ford only has 1 model in the top 10 (fleet & privates combined), yet still manages to be 3rd best seller!!

It does appear that way doesn't it, I've only ever read posts bagging the life out of Ford.
DanielXR8, do you or have you ever even owned a new Ford? or any of the brands you seem to think do a better job at providing service than Ford....?

I bet none of the above....

Nice to see some anti-Ford-bashing sentiment in here. It's been getting tiring.

There is no democracy on Car forums - either you share the love of the brand or you get out :-)
