Just when I thought that this article couldn't get any more ridiculous, I read this phrase:

"U-Haul has no ban on rentals to Mercury Mountaineer owners, although the vehicle is mechanically a carbon copy of the Explorer.

'We've had no issues with the Mercury Mountaineer,' Fried said."

:rolleyes:

Dummies.

I just scanned through the article but I also didn't see mention that the ban is on pre-2001 redesigned from the ground up models that are highly critically acclaimed.

You wonder how a company would stay in business with idiots like that at the helm. :rolleyes:

Maybe they inherited the business when the man who was sleeping with their mother shot their father.
