Lets see how Ford faired in the CR report

I've subscribed to Consumer Reports for over 20 years...but Cars are NOT what they are good at, and they sure ain't car guys!

That said we were diehard Ford fans, owned many, many of them. It was obvious that Ford cut corners and no longer cared. But my experiences with the 6.0 Diesel F250 I owned was the final nail in Fords Casket as far as I was concerned. Then we bought a new Ford sedan, literally fell apart on the way home. Door panels rattled, engine ran rough, seat belt wouldn't pull out and more. Made in Mexico!

As I'm concerned, Ford just doesn't care!

So we voted with our wallets!

We sold all of our Fords and after extensive research..we (our family) now own 6 New KIA's! 2 of them are build right here at KIA's new Billion Dollar Factory in West Point Georgia. Best made, best designed and best engineered cars I've ever seen!

Right off the dealership lot...we had not a single issue. Paint perfect, all the panels were straight, everything worked, assembly quality was supurb! Reliable too! And the 10 year 100,000 mile warranty ain't bad either.

Message to Ford..get your act together and do it quickly! Henry Ford must be rolling over in his grave.

I've always...mostly....had domestics. But two of my buddies in the past 18 months...went from being domestic owners all their lives (GM, Ford) to buying Hyundai Santa Fe's.

So far...no problems. One has the V6, the other has the four cylinder.

One of our cars is a Toyota...we've had issues with that. So no more Toyota.

But Hyundai...which is connected to Kia I believe..I'm going to take a look.
