SPLN SUX Posted August 9, 2005 Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 I was just watching the news and they were saying that the new Mustangs are supposedly to see drastic drop in insurence rates. Appearently, Ford worked in hand with State Farm to make design changes that would cause repair to be cheaper and easier, stronger bumpers, and make locks harder to pick and pull. This of course as of now is speculation but drops in insurence rates are expected to owners of the newest model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mowgli1647545497 Posted August 11, 2005 Report Share Posted August 11, 2005 Ford is dumb. I've no doubt that that happened - that they worked with State Farm and probably other major insurance corps on certain design sections of the new Mustang, with the insurance folks mumbling about lower rates for Ford's new sports car. And I'm also certain that State Farm and crew had zero contractual obligation to make any feduciary changes to their policy rates for Mustang customers. The insurance companies just reduced their risk liabilities, improving their profit margin, and Ford just got pwned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
