I'm sure it won't stay up for long - Ford deleted my comment on their Facebook post celebrating the Lightning. I snagged a screenshot of the linked post for those who come too late to see it.

I'm surprised it's lasted this long. Bronco nation is a shill for Ford and I'm sure they'll blow it up soon enough. We can't be badmouthing big corporate Ford on there now can we.


Let's Go Brandon! ?
Over a cup of Joe I was wondering if North Carolina would allow me a personalized license tag that says "FORD SUX" on my Ranger. I'm guessing no would be the answer. :)

That doesn't surprise me at all John. Crushing free speech seems to be the flavor of the day now.

Yeah I don't think that'll go over to well. lol

Jim, take a look at my last post here. I guess they have been getting a lot of call on this today which is good. I know you sent them a message through Facebook but it doesn't hurt to call as she documented everything including my reservation number.

This is a really crappy thing for Ford to do.

I wonder if the number of cancelled Bronco reservations will ever be known outside of Ford.

Not that I disagree with the sentiment but, private companies (and forums) can do whatever they want when it comes to censorship. 1st Amendment and Free Speech is what the government can't do.

You are correct, and I knew this. I should have not said it so literally. But, you know what I mean my friend.

Frustrating - I hear ya. And good on you for posting this.

I have come to realize though… The end purchaser is not a Ford customer. The dealership is the customer. The end purchaser is a customer of the dealership.

The dealerships put pressure on Ford and got some changes. The dealers are stating they are playing by FoMoCo’s rules. I would recommend everything send to FoMoCo also has your dealership copied/included.
