I like 99% of the people that Kzinti has helped are extremely grateful for his efforts.... God forbid he use company time (if that's infact what he was doing) to help out FORD CUSTOMERS....not people looking to buy a car (read as: looking to BECOME Ford customers), people who were already Ford Customers. In most cases spending over $30k per unit (we're not talking about Fiestas and Focuses here). I will be writing and emailing anyone that matters to help support Kzinti. I tried to get info on my 05 GT build from the dealer. I heard the same crap over and over and over...4-6 weeks, 4-6 weeks...how long did it take you ask? 6.5 months! how many "it'll be here in 4-6 weeks" can you squeeze into 6 months. I tried calling Ford Directly and they told me to call me dealer. So to get ANYWHERE with Ford I had to LIE and pose as a dealer to find out anything with my car and that was STILL hard..... Then came Kzinti...gave me dates thru the entire process. I infact called the dealer at the end and told THEM when my car would be there...they shrugged me off. I showed up at the dealer an hour before my car came in on the truck and they all laughed at me....when my car rolled up w/ my name on the sticker they couldn't believe it.... THAT is customer service...who can I thank? The dealer? No they never tried to help me. The manufacturer...HELL NO...had to LIE to get anywhere with them....it was Kzinti all the way. And this "poor me" union attitude from SWF just sickens me. Take up the slack when someone is gone and quit your bitching. I bet if you put in a real full day of hard work that the rest of us do you could work with 1/2 the employees you have now that won't bitch when 1 is gone and the other 30 of you have to pick up the slack for the 1 missing. For F-sake welcome to the real world!...Get your hands dirty, stop begging for handouts and earn your friggin' paychecks like the rest of us. Stop trashing the guy who helped more individual real world Ford customers in 1 year than you will in your entire career....or job I should say. Unions, besides bad management, is 1 of the reasons Ford and other big US companies are heading the way of GM. Don't see Nissan or Honda with the profitability problems of the US car builders and their market share is a FRACTION of what the US automakers' is. Don't see Nissan or Honda or Toyota putting out family pricing to get more customers in order to sell more units and raise the bottom line a little...simply: those other companies don't HAVE TOO. It's bitching union workers and greedy union management that is the reason (admittedly not the ONLY reason) that Ford is having troubles.... If they can't keep their costs low than maybe people like Kzinti will inspire the type of confidence in the industry (specifcally US autobuilders) that will inspire well-treated customers to return again and again. I will endlessly praise Kzinti for what he has done...and can't thank him enough again for what he has done for both me and hundreds, who knows maybe even thousands of ford customers across this country.
