I can understand that for many who lease cars, the end of the lease demands that they have another car lined up to go. Not having a new Ford model released means they'll go to another brand.

What I don't really understand though, is when people who don't lease, who have to wait a few months or so for a new Ford model and they get ants in their pants and run off to another brand.

It reminds me of blokes who 'need' to upgrade their TV or motorbike or DVD or 'insert commodity item here' every year or so to feel they have the best stuff. Never have been able to understand why many feel so inclined.

I reckon there are so many people who are simply not good at waiting for things.

Myself, if I was in the market (not leasing) and the new model was still 6 months away, I'd hold off to see what the new Ford product was like before running off to another brand.

I guess I may ruffle a few feathers with such comments, but it's the way I see it.
