SO, the exact same place it went when they were called a Dodge...
You Ram boys, need to stop being offended when someone calls your truck a Dodge.

You should know by now, you can't get a Ford guy to admit that!!
Ford Motor Co. Does U-turn on Bailouts - FactCheck.org
I guess they see a difference between borrow and bail out... It's all mooching off out tax dollars though...

Did some reading last night and unlike yourself, I can admit that Ford was mooching as well just not as much as others..

I got a FREE Duramax and Allison out of the deal, so I dun good! Never would have owned a Diesel, probably otherwise. Drivetrain has been solid without an issue except glowplugs. Hardly used for anything but personal transport though.
I saw some recent FORD F150 assembly line footage. I thought to myself, it's a miracle that they make any money at all. The Infrastructure cost for one vehicle, that changes yearly, and all the components, and wages/benefits, must be very expensive.

Sounds to me like you're more offended by the thought that I'm offended than I actually am offended.
I'm not offended in the least. More like embarrassed at how poor a job FCA did with the change.
Man, I like new free stuff. All I ever get is old, broke stuff
A couple of times after I fixed it, the old owner asked for it back

Not really. Ford took a loan (along with Nissan and Telsa) which they are repaying and will be paid in full in 2022. GM and their financial arm received over 68 billion in bailout money and the taxpayer lost 13.7 billion dollars. We the people lost 10.2 billion dollars bailing out out Chrysler.
