I was following a POS Ford Escort not to long ago, I would say early nineties vintage. Now I can't blame the fellow for maximizing his dollar and the car looked to be in relatively good shape. Here's what killed me:

He had a bumper sticker that said "I work for Ford, I drive a Ford". I can appreciate the sentiment itself, but he's driving a 15 year old Ford. In addition, Ford was basically selling the car at a loss to maintain volume and to keep a presence in the entry level car buyer market. So, does this guy really think that he is somehow supporting the company by driving the same car for 15 years, a car which Ford certainly lost money on by selling it to him?
