I disagree. The single best thing Ford could do to keep them from filing bankrupcy would be to nix just about their entire line of cars in the states, and bring over the entire line of cars from Europe. The Ka is a great car, but even better would be the Cosworth. A line up of Ka, Focus, and Cosworth would do Ford wonders here. In fact, I'd go so far as to say they should also fire 90% (or more) of the white collars in the states, and bring over the white collars from Europe. They are like two completely different entities.

I absolutely love those commercials.

Ford is hurting because they threw all of their investments into SUV's and since gas is sky high, they are loosing sales. There are more factors involved in this aswell, like reliability and resale value, but building Gas guzzlers during an energy crisis never helps either.

You have some serious problems if you like that garbage. After seeing these commercials, I guarantee that I will never buy a Ford, EVER in my life.

i think the more important question to ask is why you considered a Ford product to start with?!? Which ever vehicle you get will spew out more toxins and kill more animals then this commercial and its car killing sunroof.

Lesson of the day...dont take yourself so seriously...its ok to have some fun.

I never considered a ford, but this reaffirms my hate for them. Killing animals is not "Having some fun". Didn't your mother ever teach you that two wrongs don't make a right?
