Ford is not part of Mazda, they own 33% of Mazda. Their cars are pretty much their own.

Whose cars are pretty much their own? Ford or Mazda??

My Probe is mainly Mazda.

But Mazda's trucks are all Ford.



To be fair:
The Saturn Vue has a Honda engine.
The Chevy Prism is a Toyota Tercel
The Isuzu Hombre is an S-10
The Chevy Tracker is an Suzuki Grand Vitara
The Porche SUV is a Volkswagen Toureg
BMW uses GM automatic transmissions
...and the list goes on :)


Automakers are all whores.

Edit: Suzuki, not Isuzu.

Take a look at the 'brands' section: Ford. Obviously, Mazda is PART of the Ford group. I don't care about percentages...the main point is that Mazda shouldn't be grouped with Infiniti.

You are an idiot, your car sucks, and your poll sucks.

calling a stupid poll stupid isn't hating, its telling the truth
