    Why is Ford helping government overreach? That’s disgusting. And to think, the next vehicle I plan to buy is either a full size SUV or pickup truck and was looking at Ford as one of the options. I’ll stick to Toyota for now.

      I’ll stick to Toyota for now.

      I wish I’d found Toyota products decades earlier. Nearly lifelong Ford guy here, and honestly no major complaints with the vehicles I’ve had. But we are now a Toyota family, and everyone I know who owns one (now including us) won’t even look at another company. Really reliable, well designed cars, IMO. I think you’re doing the right thing.

      It is every car manufacturer everywhere. To make things worse, the car manufacturers sell your data to insurance companies

        Yeah I’m aware of Ford doing this as well. They sell the data to lexisnexis who in turn sells it to the insurance companies. I learned about this a few months ago.
