Popular and profitable are two completely different things. Also, every Mav sold is taking from the Escape hybrid, and there's tons of those on the lot. Then there's the IRA build up ...YOWZA!!!
Interesting, because everything I said can be verified via Ford's own PR and Media Relations Team. Try doing your homework for a change, and no, I'm not posting a link for you.

Dealer's make nothing on new car sales.

All dealerships do this.
Good for you for walking out. Stand your ground. Hope it works out for you.
I wish my lottery numbers would hit and my back would stop hurting. I also wish that all of the world's top supermodels would respect the fact that I'm engaged and stop showering with exotic gifts, trips to the Maldives and offers of group sex in the Swiss Alps. But hey, we have to manage our...
