harold1946,
No, actually, he was helping to make my point because Ford got better BECAUSE Workhorse was in the game. Had it only been "Ford" during the 2000's who knows if they would've done anything to improve their engine, transmission, suspension, etc. on the F-53. Workhorse had them beat in those areas in the mid-2000's and Ford responded. Beating the competition is what keeps these improvements coming. No competition, then little incentive to change.
I can't take a side on the Ford/Workhorse debate. Ford is my favorite "American" car company, I was never fond of GM. But, when I was buying our motorhome, I felt Workhorse offered the better chassis.
But come to think of it...popcorn does sound like a good treat right now! LOL :)
