For most of us, this is all in good fun.  

I had to forward this one to one of my best friends, who until a few years ago 
was a
manager for one of the largest F**d dealers in E Tn  and who was planning to 
take over
the family business before he decided to make a career change...he's now a 
pastor...but
he's still a big F**d fan.

A few of you might also remember that I have a 86 Corvette convert, modified to 
SCCA
regs for Solo2 BSP racing.  Many of my friends run Mustangs (Rustangs?), and we 
get
along just fine and even help each other on tech info and setup but still have 
to give
each other a hard time about GM vs F**d.

It's all part of the game as long as it is a game and not malicious.
