Yup.....hence why the movie producers decided against Ford as the autobots, etc. Could you imagine the movie sales then??? Down the tubes...

The Focus Jazz...

Saleen BB

Ford F350 Optimus Prime (even though he isn't GM anyway)

Ford Excursion as Ratchet

Those are the best I could come up w/ from Ford. They have no real "cool" cars to use in the movie. I'll admit their trucks are nice and are getting nicer. I would drive an excursion or a stang. But, that's about all from Ford.

Saleen really dug a hole w/ this oine. If there were plans for him to build w/ GM, those plans are out the door. Actually, I think he found out he wasn't going to be building w/ GM so he decided to let out his true feelings. I'm suprised he took the job of building the Camaro if he was really going to have a problem w/ it. What a #$%%...

Ford has F-450 tow trucks, and ford has F-series flat beds, and like the F-650 stuff... but you couldn't have 3 f-series transformers, that would just be silly.

No diversity. And the ONLY performance car they produce is the mustang - it's sad. They did an SVT Focus and they had the Lightning and stuff, but they aren't 'performance' cars, just performance VARIANTS of other, relatively popular commuter cars.

That's not very nice...Saleen's the a$$hole, not Ford owners in general. My uncle owns 3 Ford vehicles right now, (used to have a T/A) is he real dumb?

Just saying...Saleen's a f***hole, sure, but he does NOT represent all Ford owners. In fact, I don't think he represents ANY owners. He's his own brand of Dumba$$.

What a TOOL… I might be mistaken but it is my understanding he does not even own Saleen, he sold it a few years back. All he is now is a consultant… Yep, BIG TOOL…
