I think Ford thinks that the average Canadian and American are too dumb to want GOOD cars, that have some excitement.

have a really good point there, but none of those racing teams have the shareholders best interest in mind. it may be good advertising for the ford name when they win.

If I'm a shareholder, I would like a profit made on my shares, so, wouldn't it be a good idea to larket what the company is good at? besides losing billions of dollars?

It used to be that racing cars and winning on Sunday, brought them in to the showroom on Monday. It worked once, it can work again. Yes, have a safe, family car, a safe, economy car, a safe luxury car, but, being safe and exciting......... it's kinda like sex
