Yeah, the numbers are weired is all. 0-60 in 2.9 seconds and time of 11.3? Doesnt add up, means this thing is gutless once it gets moving.

2.9 0-60 is like a 1.6 60 foot time on drag strip, that shite doesnt happen on streets but we will see. Steeda pulled a wheelie with a 1.53 60 foot on a 2018 on a drag strip

Their stock never went to 0 like GM's

Because they got a bail out.

maybe they had some help

They did. It was called a bail out.

They did. It was called a bail out.

yea not completely like GM though where their stock ceased to exist after 2009 then restarted. Ford never went to 0. GM went to 0 and shareholders lost 100% permanently. I am disappointed in you as a Ford owner. Ford got a Loan, GM was destroyed.

In other words you are wrong.

How is the

So like I said, just fluff on paper

C8 0-60 any different then Fords GT500 0-100-0 time?

 

[YOLO]

How is the

C8 0-60 any different then Fords GT500 0-100-0 time?

Fords GT500 0-100-0 = 10.6

C8 0-100 = 7.6 (no 100-0 as we speak)

I "think" the GT500 is 6.7 to 100 MPH?

From a standing start, I'm guessing the C8 will pull ahead 0-80/85 MPH then the GT500 Higher HP will take over and spank its azz.

I am disappointed in you that you're trying to revise your statement to backtrack your initial incorrect statement. You said that they didn't need to get bailed out by the government when in fact they did. So how am I wrong? They needed a bailout and they accepted the bailout money. That is a fact. I'm not dancing around your tune switching. If you meant something else then say so. If you were mistaken then say so. If you were not aware that Ford needed and accepted bailout money then say so. But stop trying to force something incorrect that you said.

Your original comment was "Also Ford didnt need to get bailed out by the government." You are wrong. They did. End of story.

Ford stock never went to 0. Stockholders never lost 100%, GM stock holders lost 100%. GM totally failed.

"The Big Three automakers asked Congress for help similar to the bank bailout. They warned that General Motors Company and Chrysler LLC faced bankruptcy and the loss of 1 million jobs. The Ford Motor Company didn't need the funds since it had already cut costs. But it asked to be included so it wouldn't suffer by competing with companies who already had government subsidies."

My statement was true. If the government never bailed out anyone only Ford would still be around, and Ford stock would probably be 10x higher than it is now due to elimination of GM competition. Ford only wanted their bailout loan because GM was getting one and obviously that shit wouldnt be fair to Ford.

Did Ford take bailout money or not? They did. Story over.

Not for the same reasons, ford didnt NEED it they wanted it only to keep shit fair. My statement is still true, they didnt NEED it at least at that time. end of story.
