I think this is wishful thinking -

"We hope that this trademark problem is just a lack of communacation between Ford Upper Management and the law firm they have hired."

Yes, this IS wishful thinking. I'm sure no company wants to go up against Ford in a lawsuit, particularly when both the aftermarket company and Ford are in a mutually good relationship and were previously supportive of each other. It is a sad day for something like this to happen. It's very disturbing to me that Ford thinks that this is the right thing to do! We as a group of Mustang enthusiasts probably need to do something but besides signing a petition what else can be done? Oh wait, did I say Mustang enthusiasts, sorry Ford, I meant to say Mxxxxxg enthusiasts.:thumbsup

I'm glad I own a Fxxd Mxxxxxg!!!

It's old news man.

Ford was sueing a few parts and products dealers for using "Mustang" in their name.

I don't even know where it went, but it's a null issue to me. Compaines most likely just changed their names to not deal with the hassle.

What's up with all of the 3-4 year old threads cropping up again? This is the third one I've come across in as many days.

Most people are not capable of looking at a situation from both sides without bias. These same people generally also have issues with the “man”.
