This is an interesting link (not maverick related directly so if I posted in the wrong place forgive me). I have read on here about people doing Maverick calendars and such, so this link may apply. http://www.boingboing.net/2008/01/13/ford-car-owners-are.html I think Ford has gone crazy if this is true.
Just read the same thing here http://consumerist.com/344556/ford-photos-of-your-car-are-copyright-infringement Scary stuff folks.....Big Brother is watching...errr Ford.
I have been thinking about starting a dedicated website to show my disdain for Ford's actions.. I think it's about time I move forward!
http://www.adrants.com/2008/01/ford-slaps-brand-enthusiasts-returns.php Just think of all the pictures on ebay...cars and NOS parts laid next to the big blue oval on the box. Popped up over here too. First read it on slashdot.org a few minutes ago.... Just think what fordmaverick.com and .info have instore for them. Robert
I know Ford has supposedly contacted members of this forum and told them to cease the distribution of T-Shirts and the like with the Maverick Images on them. I don't think that was so much as the image of the car as it was the Maverick/Ford Logo. As well I have a feeling that this isn't so much FORD saying that people cannot compile and distribute a calender with pictures of their own cars as it is the CAFE Express company covering their own arses so they don't get tapped ont he shoulder by a Ford attorney because they printed the mustang emblem or the Ford Blue Oval without prior written consent .. . . . . . . .Uhhhmmm well after readin some more maybe Ford lawyers are just being Jackasses like everyone is saying
lol Mine looks pretty good. Ordered 10 of them from Cafepress last month for Christmas presents. Contains Misc Ford cars and logos. No hassles and they turned out great. Recommended.
