Driven a Ford Lately? Not if You’re Boycotting

I have been aware of the boycott since it’s inception, and personally know 6 other individuals that are participating. I buy 2 vehicles per year, and up until the boycott they were all Fords. I don’t know what effect others around the country are having on Ford, but the boycott is responsible for every non-Ford vehicle purchased that I controlled.

Fords have been good to me. Once a die hard Chevy man, about 12 years ago I switched and never regretted, until now. If Ford apologized and discontinued their support, I would buy Ford again.

The AFA does not want Ford to take an anti-gay stance, but simply remain neutral, not taking ads in such publications as The Advocate and ceasing support of public gay pride events.
