I think its corny. on the older ones it looks dgood, but this is pure afterthought, looks dumb. pair it with non functional, logo.

I just thought it odd that Ford would even recommended this. All it does is take a huge chunk out of your wallet.

Inflation isn't a Ford exclusive thing
Get used to it ....even at the local piggly wiggly

soon they won't be able to afford to pay the butcher so it'll be up to the customer to wrangle the wiggly piggy and butcher it in the back.

Some of it is not even inflation.

Look at Lumber. The actual log cutters and haulers are openly saying they are pumping out just as much as they have been, and they are NOT charging more. It's the lumber yards and stores cranking up the prices just to make more profits.

Home depot charged me 7.80 and exactly 7 days later (last Sat) the price was 8.23 for 2x4-96 for something that 6 months or so ago was $2.

This is the cost monopolies impart upon the system. They create awesome efficiency though technology and capital investment but once they get to the top they start screwing with the knowledge that no one will enter the business because of their power to drop prices.

Its mind boggling when you spend a dollar how few hands it actually ends up in.

I used to work in advertising. It was almost sad and comical watching 6 agencies pitch for a brands work knowing all 6 were owned by the same group and that the exact same PM's coders and artists would be doing the work no matter whose pitch was selected.

This isn't a cost of a monopoly. It's the result of creating money simply to pour it on the pile. It's one thing when money results as a function of some creative process. It's another thing completely to simply wish it into existence and set it free looking for something to spend itself upon.
