Ford is getting greedy

Haven't been here in a long time, but I thought this would be the fastest way to spred some news, unless this has been posted already, and if so, sorry.

Ford is suing a bunch of Mustang specialty business to stop using the name Mustang in their company names. I've already heard of some people not buying anymore Ford products in the future due to their greediness.

Thanks for listening.

Re: Ford is getting greedy

If you were in that situation, wouldn't you do the same?

Everybody's out for the money; if theres a chance to make more of it, then why not?

Yea its bad, but as you can see by the majority of the posts here (at a auto enthusiast site none the less), most could care less about a few insignificant businesses.

Everyone is forgetting that Ford, Chevy, Toyota, Honda, etc. etc. (every major manufacturer) is out to make money, period.
Thats at the apex, for the most part they could care less what true fans of Fords, Chevy, Toyota, Honda, etc. think, feel, or have an opinion on something.

Re: Ford is getting greedy

Hell, I'd sue myself just for making Mustang-related products

Oops, did I say that out loud?

Re: Ford is getting greedy

I think they are going after aftermarket companies that use the Mustang name. Which is dumb. That'd be like going in and kicking my buddy in the teeth for no reason.
