In a stroke of genius he put "Powered by Ford" badges on it, making it much less desirable and targetting it at a less discerning buyer...

Sure that makes sense! Let's make a car and sell it to the public but let's not make it desirable because we do not want to sell too many.Too much of a demand will surley do us in!  |
