Not another comment on 'Sheep'! Accept that people have the choice and they choose what they want to buy. Wierd that!

It's a shame the Soviet Union collapsed, some people would have fit right in to their style of government.

It seems the only good sheep are the ones that follow us, the rest are bad sheep.

The way I see it Ford Australia have absolutely failed. They have the best or close to the best cars in most segments but get absolutely flogged by inferior rivals in sales. They have lost all ability to sell and market cars. They were top of the tree at doing this in the 80's and 90's, they could sell anything with a Ford badge on it, they basically had the highest selling cars in most segments. But over the last 5-10 years they have completely lost their way, advertising has been a massive fail, supplies are an absolute joke and service is mostly terrible.

Either complacency or arrogance, not to mention their US masters who have totally screwed them and don't ensure they get the supplies they need. Its like fighting with one hand tied behind your back.

NOT GOOD ENOUGH

Why change if it aint broke....

Its always funny those who bag out a brand have never experienced a quality product from that maker,and the only ever stories they have or hear are about a 100 year old ,$500 rusted clunker from that maker ,that their mates dads uncles cousin bought .....
If the hilux could be within my budget for a new car .there would be one in the drive,biggest seller dual cab 4x4 or not ....
Buying new I don't give a hoot for sheep followers,or who drives what or the latest thing to park out front of a café
I buy what is within my budget and suits my needs
I just don't understand how some can criticise what people should or shouldn't buy,thats just wrong to do that
People have to be happy with their decision wether good or bad,most of the nay sayers, couldnt afford $10 juice in their VN dunnybox

I suspect OneFord is a painful transition process, a lot of balls to keep in the air at the same time whilst satisfying existing customers....I recon management is earning every dollar
