[QUOTE="00 Aggie, post: 3705410, member: 16684"] Its not about money, its about copyright and trademark laws. If Ford does not "attempt" to control thier copyrights and trademarks, they lose them to public domain. So what does this mean? Every so often they will go after a business that isnt using a license for trademarked names such as "Ford" or "Mustang" (Mustang as in cars or parts, not the airplane or horse) and send them a letter (and $100k is nothing to a corporation, especially if they want something to stop), that way they appear to be protecting their rights. This is no different than is Toyota came out with a car and called it a Mustang and Ford told htem to stop (even though I can gauruntee that suit would be a lot more than $100k). [/QUOTE]
