WRT F150;
I am so upset with the state of the auto market when it comes to pricing.
Manufacturing margins are enormous when it comes to cars.
The F150 is no different.
A two seater (effectively) vehicle stamped out of metal and plastic should never cost as much as those things do.
I hate car companies and their pricing models.

- ethbro 6y agoBecause small trucks require more fuel- and emissions-efficient engines than larger ones.

- ponker 6y agoFord's operating margin is ~8 percent it's not like they're making triple digit profit margins here. You are overreacting.
