None. Car manufacturers dont care about us, they care about money. This is why I don't understand brand loyalty. It isnt like Ford is doing anything for you. They dont give a damn about you or me. They are not somewhere on some manufacturer's forum defending you for buying a Mustang. "But he doesn't care about performance!!"

Day 1. Doing the bare minimum is ALWAYS lazy. Just because it works doesn't change that fact. They could do more and choose not to. It works in that it allows them to offer a car for fleet sales, greatly improving overall car sales numbers. GM made a mistake there I think.
