Seems on topic to me.

The question is why would ford build anything the buyer wants and the discussion is fords rolling over. Am I missing something here? Maybe if they were talking about chevys rolling over then it wouldn't be on topic.

The tires failing is because of the low pressures... 26psi under a 4000# vehicle? That is just stupid. Car tires call for 44PSI to hold up 2000#.

If the tires call for 35psi THAT is what they should be inflated at! It IS fords fault for understating the psi on the door tag. If you run ANY tire below its recommended pressure, expect excessive heat build up and eventually delamination and/or blowout.

So if ford is willing to risk your life for a "smoother" ride why would anyone want to buy a ford anything? What else are they compromising to cover up their other mistakes?
