re: Volkswagen employees vote down UAW unionization bid in Chattanooga

I had 3 Accords before I bought my first Ford. Swore I'd never drive anything but a Honda. Decided I wanted a pick-up truck, and bought a 99 F-150 with the Triton V8. That engine was incredible, and my mechanic friend said it's one of the best non-diesel engines to come out of the American manufacturers. Liked it so much bought I 99 Expedition for the wife with the same engine. Sold the F-150(why I still don't know) when it had 240,000 miles on it. Sold the Expedition with it having 215,000 miles on it, but it did have a bad fly wheel at the time. The 2003 Expedition wasn't nearly as well built as the 99 one, but still got to 197,000 miles before trading it in on the Edge.
