Now that you mention it, yeah I have noticed it. WTF is going on with that? Ford badges couldn't be that popular could they?

Don't know if there popular, but there always for sale on E-Bay. So someone must
a. Lose them somehow and
b. Require one

Good way to start a business, but I would have thought BMW, Merc,Jag,Roller as being more collectable for some dimwit.
