I like both, Each has their ups and downs. Chevy has sexy looking cars and reliable power plants. But ford is the leader in the domestic class, They have lots of money invested in research and development right now. Within the next 10 years their cars are going to be up there with the euro brands. Thats why I'm confident working for ford and going through their factory training program.

6? Why? I can't see how you could handle any more than 2-3 monitors at a time.
