True Chevy Lovers Help Me Please!!! Y Is Chevy Better Than Ford?! - Page 3

Ya know, I really hate fords, but if I had to have one, I would probally have something like ford chick rig, but I really dislike the old 360s, Would have to go with a 351 cleveland or modified if I had to stay with a ford motor. No likely to happen though.

I've owned both but I'm partial to FORD, but I will give Chevy a bone on one fact:

You can still easily work on your brand new Chevys engine, Fords cammer motors are a pain to modify and maintain. Just my .02.

I'm just curious to see if ANYBODY has ANYTHING that I havent thought of. Please help me win my argument that a CHEVY TRUCK IS BETTER than a ford. SO SHOW OFF SOME CHEVY KNOWLEDGE AND PRIDE and help a gal out.

The main thing that Chevys have that fords don't--songs about them or songs mentioning them.
I submit---"we made love in my Chevy Van and that's allright with me"
" drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry"
" out in the backseat of my '60 Chevy"

These off the top of my head-----anyone???

well heres the facts...ford is better i have personally owned all three... chevy cant make a diesel with working injectors, dodge still cant make a tranny and has problem with water in the oil ( ask anyone that has worked at an oil shop), ford had some problems with the 6.0 Turbo, but they were fixed in early 2005. Plus u cant argue with numbers and ford simply out sells chevy and dodge...for 30 years now

06PStroker2500 · 08-23-2006, 12:50 PM

and if u straight pipe the new 6.0L they sound like a jet engine

Are you completely crazy? ^^^^Should probally know the facts before you post something like that. Simply opinion, has no merit whatsoever.

64longstep · 08-23-2006, 10:17 PM

this is just my opinion. why is there more chevy 350s in f#*d stock cars than f#*ds??

and why is there more GM stock cars than f#*d??

the last i heard, dodge and chevy both outsold ford and ford was cutting 12 plants in the next 7 or 8 years due to sales. i do know for a fact, and yall can check up on this if yall want to for fact or fiction, it costs twice the price to build a ford as it does a chevrolet.
you also state facts about stuff broken on these others but if you want another fact, ford has had more problems with their vehicles cathcing ablaze than chevy and dodge put together e.g. exploder, expedition, f150 they recalled how many thousands of vehicles?? everyone has hiccups

I read a report today about the Big 3 regarding pickup truck sales. Unfortunately, it's true, Ford has outsold Chevy this year (so far). However, they didn't outsell GM, as a corporation. There were more Silverados/Sierras sold than F-series/Lincoln Mark LTs.

I know it's my local paper, but I'm sure the stats are from the Associated Press:
