11. waiting for the convertible?
I like American cars. I have several older mustangs. But I so seldom purchase cars, (especially new ones) that a boycott would be meaningless from me.

14. Waiting for my inheritance. Looking for 2002-2004, loaded.
Hard-top. 5 speed, V-8.
New ones cost too damn much.

21. we like the 98 version better--
4wheel independent steering and ABS, and it's a smaller, sleeker design.

Gotta love the hood scoop on some of the later models though!

5. My favorite part: "Warning- dirty gay pictures....but please look
at them anyway, just to see how totally gay it is." One wonders what the most 'hetero-friendly' car company is, anyway.

8. Does that mean all the macho guys will not be buying Ford Trucks or
the Mustang. Wait a minute * drives a Ford pick-em-up truck down at the ranch.

9. My right-wing nutter in-laws will be trading in their Taurus and Focus
five minutes after I send this to them. My FIL once lectured me for 20 minutes on the Homosexual Agenda - this will probably kill him.

12. I had to sign it
Ima Flamer flamer@gayboy.com


Of course I'm really a gay gal, but that doesn't seem to bother them as much.

16. I signed the petition:
First name: Corporate
Surname: Dollar
State: Franklinville
e-mail: Money@sleazeforprofits.com

Kinda low, but these twits don't seem to realize that gay people, to corporations, are nothing more than walking wallets.

Convince me that Ford is humanitarian. Showing me their low-cost hybrid will be a start. (they make a hybrid SUV, $30k, that half the centers won't sell because it's too bloody costly to repair them. The MPG for a hybrid SUV is comparable to a well tuned gas-only engine. If people need the space, fine. But many want an SUV just to stroke their shrivelled egos and nothing more.)

22. It doesn't make ford good guys, but this is an example of the GOP...
Eating their own. Maybe the religious wrong will go a step further and refuse to support any candidate who takes donations from Ford.

18. Learn something new every day
My ex-SIL is a Union rep at Ford and has always had good things to say about the company but I had NO idea how gay-positive their outfit was.

My SO has been going on and on (and on and on and ON) about the new Mustangs... and we do need another car...

Thanks for the info!

24. I wonder, is it a copyright violation
for that site to use the logos of the Ford brands?

perhaps the site should be forwarded to Ford's legal department.

So I did.O8)

27. I think that it is a bad idea to spam the petition with funny names
Such as:

IamGay

IFuckMen

ILoveCock

Ooops, too late.
