What do you mean the Corvette can't handle? That is one of the stupidest things I've heard this week.

I agree, Ive driven a Z06 and it handled great.

Definitely Chevy. Styling isn't even a close cmparison. The Focus is one of the ugliest cars on the road, and the Taurus is nothing ot brag about. The GT40 is the only great thing coming from ford. Chevy has one of the only true American sports cars, the Corvette. They also have some great concepts. The new pick-ups aren't the nicest, but still a lot nicer than Ford. And quality? Chevy by far. My dad owned 3 Fords and had electrical trouble with every one of them. If you want to look in the past, Ford may edge out Chevy, but as for the present and future, Chevy has Ford beat.

Quite frankly this is all quite stupid. I mean each brand has thier good cars each brand has thier lemons........And what are we supposed to be comparing anyway???? Ford USA vs Chevrolet??? Or Ford USA, Australia, Japan and Europe???? in that case then you had better bring Vauxhall/Opel, Holden and Suzuki into the equation.
So my answer is none. This poll is retarded.
However I am inclined to say that out the US arm of both these compainies- the Corvette is the only good car to come out of them- and even then the handling is rubbish compared to cars like the M3, Skyline GTR, 911 and even Nissan Silvias and Mazda MX5's

Sorry, I know that isnt very nice, but people shouldnt make comments without backing them with some form of reasoning. Anyways, I like both companies:D That's right, Im an AC/DC in this argument. Both companies have good vehicles and both have bad vehicles, Ford sells more vehicles, so what? who cares? Chevy has only the Z06; Im thinkin no, but whatever, it's a good vehicle. Just because one outsells the other doesnt make one the best and the other crap, and vise versa. People usually buy what they grew up with, which is why so many people are biased, because they have either never driven the other brand, or they are just that stupid as to assume that one company is god over all.

Yes they are expensive, but I found out if you want to make a Ford work you gotta use aftermarket parts, they are cheaper and last "slightly" longer.

This is indeed a broad and silly thread - who do you guys think makes the better looking interior plastic? Ford or Chevy???? :bloated:
I've only ever been interested in Sporty cars and could care less if the Focus or Impalla is the best selling car or whatever. I like trucks too, the bigger the better, and between Ford and Chevy I'd have to say they both make mean trucks (whose is more reliable, thats another thread).
Back to sporty cars, right now there is no question that Chevy is absolutely hurting with their lineup. I mean, the Vette's are obviously the king of the hill, but cost a fortune. Besides that end of the spectrum, Chevy's got nothing - if they would just take the blower from our Grand Prix GTP and slap it on its brother the Monte Carlo SS, that would make all the difference in the world.
Right now the Ford Mustang's are some of the coolest cars on the market. Last years Bullet model was a great looking car, and this years Mach 1 is simply awesome - the leather interior, olde school fixed ram air intake, even the optional 4-speed manual/3.55 geared tranny. Ford will aparantly be coming out with more retro models (like the "BOSS" in the next year) until the totally new Mustangs debute. With the temporary absence of the Camaro, Ford has taken full control of the "Pony Car" market and will make a killing with these clever retro issues.
I live and breathe GM, but have to give credit where credit is due. Right now Chevy is hurting - unless you rich.

Ford: Their diesel trucks are way better than the Chevy diesels and the only diesel besides cummins that I would buy. This is because the Powerstroke is made by International, a well known producer of diesel engines. Ford also has certain versions of the mustang that are good such as the Mach 1, and Cobra. As you can see both obviously have good vehicles, so it basically comes down to which one you like driving.

This is so obvious. Ford makes better products than Chevrolet, you Chevy guys should accept it. For example compare the classic Cavalier to the Focus, Escape vs. Tracker? hehe, Ford wins in almost every category, specially sedans, minis and SUVS. Chevy practically only has the Corvette to stand up for, and Iīm positive it will find its way to death when the Ford GT40 makes its debut soon, as the sweet next Mustang too!.:devil:

Chevy makes decent trucks (except for the ugly Avalanche), but their cars drive me mild. Their styling is too weird. Ford not only has nice trucks, but the Focus looks good, and even the Taurus looks somewhat decent.
I still like Dodge, though.

Ok. First post I have is for FORD Company(Not just Ford itself) vs. GM(In my opinon you can't do this but I am showing you guys what it means) If they asked me which place I selected USA so this is not completly for 100% accurate, but it is around 95%.
GM=16 Different Auto Companies(Gm does not publicly announce their dealer rates)
Buick-
Cadillac-
Chevrolet-
GMC-
Hummer-
Oldsmobile-
Pontiac-
Saab-
Saturn-
Holden-
Opel-
Vauxhall-
Fiat-
Subaru-
Isuzu-
Suzuki-
FORD=8 Different Auto Companies
Ford-13,000 Dealers
Lincoln-1,561 Dealers
Mercury-2,141 Dealers
Mazda-6,131 Dealers
Volvo-2,500 Dealers
Jaguar-787 Dealers
Land Rover-1,808 Dealers
Aston Martin-100 Dealers
GM Sales=1.5 Billion for First Quarter 2003 Fiscal Year
FORD Sales=896 Million for First Quarter 2003 Fiscal Year
GM Involvment=Vehicles, Aviation, Entertainment Systems, OnStar, Banking Services, Boating Engines,
Satellite Systems
FORD Involvment=Vehicles Only with 2 Rental Car Systems.
GM cars=94+
Ford Cars=45+
Now lets figure this out. First off Ford has a Lower Number of cars they sell, yet the manage to make more money off of their Automotive Department then GM does. BUT Secondly, GM Automotive Sales actually only made 546 Million for First Quarter 2003 Fiscal Year compated to Ford's 896 Million. So this is what I have come up with.
GM Is a bigger company then Ford, but Ford Automotive is a larger company then GM Automotive.
GM Automotive Sales less vechicles then Ford even though they have 50+ more cars on their lineup.
So some of you are correct in the assumption that GM is bigger then Ford. But since this is talking about cars in Reality Ford is bigger then GM so your wrong also.
GM Asia and North America Divison are the ONLY divisons making money. All of their other ones are losing money. Ford on the other hand is profiting for almost EVERY division, so overall Ford has more value worldwide then GM.
Now this is not a post as to whether or not which car is better, personally I like ford, but I do like some chevy's. But as some of you said "You cannot talk about chevy without GM" where here it is. Ford overall is stronger then GM as GM is overall losing more money then GM, and sells LESS Cars and Trucks!
So to sum it up:
Ford=Less Cars they have to produce but they sell more resulting in a higher profit to loss ratio then GM.
=
Ford is better then GM. (Not neccesarry quality but in value)
*EDITED* This was edited because I messed up on some wording so I fixed it.

FALSE Ford sells more then GM
Your wrong. I dont know where you got your information from but it totally incorrect. GM is larger in EVERY ASPECT than Ford. That is a known fact. Its a fact that GM is the largest in size and sales. If they werent, then how would they beable to make all the vehicles they do?

Exactly- Ford sell more commercial vehicles than GM I believe- but otherwise GM and it's many brand far outsell Ford.

Well wait, I agree on one part, my bicycle I had as a kid is better than any Ford made. But better than GM? No way, not to me anyway. Because we all know Chrysler make the best trannys right?::sarcasm::And they have other problems too. But better than GM? I highly disagree.

Their auto tranny's suck, yes. Especially from the late 80's early 90's era. But the manuals are better than ford/chevy. I am referring to mostly the muscle car era anyway, and we all know the king car was a HEMI Cuda.

The one thing I like about Chrysler is that thier vehicles are not only designed with America in mind- but rest of the world as well- for example- the Jeep Grand Cherokee, Chrysler 300M, Dodge Caravan, Dodge Ram, Dodge Interpid, Jeep Liberty, Chrysler Sebring/Dodge Stratus, Chrysler Concorde and Dodge Viper are all very elegantly styled cars that offer strong power/performance and can out-handle anything made by Ford or GM in thier respective classes- hence why Chrysler is in most export markets- but GM/Fords American brands stay in North America.
Thats not to say of course that Chrsler/Jeep/Dodge don't have any lemons- the Neon is rather unfortunate.

It has to be completely Chrysler made, half and half is no good and leads to crappy cars. I was talking about mostly the muscle car era anyway, nothing from 80's on up because thats when chrysler started making things along with mitsubishi.

I would take a ford or a chevy before I would mess with a p.o.s. chrysler! I hate chrysler. They are so freakin ugly!
P.S. Yeah a couple of their cars like the prowler and the viper are good performance vehicles but they are VERY expensive. A couple thousand dollars in mods with a Z06 or a mustang cobra and you are blowing the doors off a viper and saving a lot of money!
Ford is the best!:iceslolan
