Message from ford

This is Ford Motor Company, You need to take the word "mustang" out of this news servers name, or else. What a crock of shit. What I want to know is why and how can ford claim this name? It's the name of a breed of horse. The mustang badge is the shape of a horse. We need to find the descendants of the person that named the horse so they can sue ford. Does anyone know where I can buy a Calvin pissing on the blue oval. Seriously I'm going to put them on all my mustangs and pass them out to anyone in my local m@#$%$#g club or at M@#$%$#gs Plus. I'm so pissed off at frod right now. (misspelled on purpose)

They can claim it because it's a copyrighted trademark.

What are you babbling about? How about some context?

Yes, I've heard that before. And so, what does that have to do with some news-server? Or is he refering to the group name in some badly worded attempt at humor?

It's called sarcasm. You need to see a doctor to get that stick removed from your butt.

Essentially, Ford is targeting any "automotive" entity which uses the term Mustang (or Maverick, Pinto, Cougar, Thunderbird, etc). If you are involved with ranching, for example and use the term Mustang, you're OK. (the Mustang Ranch in Sparks, NV is another which is not affected :0) I got a nice letter back from their attorneys which tried to allay my thoughts on the course of action against the classic car market. It flopped. Many of us have been writing to the President of Ford, to their PR division, etc, voicing our concerns.

They do not seem to understand that the vendors and the owners have been one of the biggest single pro Ford advertisers... for FREE. That their present course is causing them bad PR.

We have asked when they are going to force the magazines to change names, when they will force the clubs to change names, when they will go after the little league and pro ball teams, etc.

Ford isn't the only company to take this approach. Boeing has gone after model airplane companies. The railroads went after Lionel.
