Buying a new car or truck this year?
What about a used vehicle?... pricey!


Ford has plenty of trucks to sell... just that they can't!

All because of a little wafer that is no longer made in the US of A.

Not sure how greed has anything to do with not being able to get a part they need.

I just bought a new Ford Bronco Sports Big Bend, picked it up last

Wednesday and the salesman asked me if I wanted chips with that.

Just kidding, all the chips were there. What a beautiful machine.

Dealer is going to call me next week when those form-fitted

floor mats are in and I will ask him about the fuel.

He never mentioned what fuel I should use, I just

assumed regular.
