Default Re: Tickford on the comeback??

I read in the Tickford book that FTE caused other dealerships to option up XR8s and drastically lower their profit margin in order to lure buyers away from FTE and keep sales going, to try and keep shifting XR8s. This may have left a few bad feelings between dealerships and/or Ford itself.
