Each side has the right, I believe, to express their opinions as well - and yes, even Markus may have an opnion on these issues.

Having said that, I don't think Markus is discounting the .05% group - just trying to manage priorities.

You've been vocal about how business should work, what if Ford had .05% of it's customer wanting a model with the driver's controls on the right side of the car. I would have to believe that would not be their #1 prioroty - even if they had said it's in the plans and they had "promised" it.

I'm just trying to point out that everyone's opnions are imprtant here - including those that disagree - but prioties must be set or else nothing gets done.

Henry my point was that when the minority have a problem, there's a lot more "non importance" put on it, yourself included. Not meant as an insult, but you certainly have a way of sugar coating things with your responses, and when it's something that's only a concern to a few, you tend to do a lot more sugar coating.

Yes, you have a right to post anything you like. Myself, when an issue comes up, big or small, that doesn't affect me, I tend to stay out of the thread and not downplay its importance. The reason I do that is because I believe those people have a right to voice their concerns just like me without someone telling them it's not a big issue.

Right, let's add some more metaphors, Ford Motor Company, the War in Iraq, etc etc. Adding metaphors seems to be the popular answer lately.

I'm out of this thread and out of $$$ to spend on this company. Just like you have the right to voice and express your concerns, I have just expressed mine. I've also made a decision to stop purchasing from this company.

Thank you for your time and support.
