The good folks at Sarasota Ford permitted me to drive a Boss 302 last weekend. It is simply the best "bang-for-the-buck" vehicle presently available. It harkens back to the least appreciated and, IMHO, the best all-around vehicle of the "muscle car" era, the Boss 351. If reports suggesting the next generation Mustang will be smaller and lighter are true, it will make for an amazing ride. |
I am not sure how much a Boss 302 goes for, but if it supposed to be a step up from the GT500, then it will probably reflect in cost. Just doing some crude math, a GT500 costs 50k-ish (as tested, lol). My NISMO cost me 34K and I am putting roughly 16-20k into it. Looks pretty even too me. I think I will be chasing them down and running away when I am done. However, they would do the same if they make upgrades.............

The new Boss 302 is ugly as hell. The GT 5.0's look better....

Maybe they needed to save money somehow. They didn't take any bail-out money, so I will give them that much.............
I think I will still walk'em down and run away, lol. If not, I will still smile everytime I get in the NISMO..... |

The money Ford borrowed was prior to 2006 and is normal for any large corporation to borrow from the Fed. From the auto, to oil, etc. borrow from the government because they get super cheap rates and easier than burning their own cash. Do some research than pulling up a random graph made by a blogger pulling data back from 2005 & prior and trying to lump it into the failure of what GM & Chrysler did. |

The money was just like any other loan the government issues, other than issuing it to a bank then to the corporation they skipped the bank and went straight to the corporation.
Also, Ford paid the loan bank well before they needed to, made more profit and is already with plenty of cash in the bank. Sorry, but your argument is just grasping to slander Ford for no reason. |
