It is clear that 2 posters on these boards have lost money in their trades of this companies stock and have vengeance to take out on the management and the technology. THEY ARE LIKE SCREAMING LITTLE KIDS THAT WALK INTO A BUILDING YELLING AT PEOPLE. They simply should just look in the mirror at why they purchased shares in the first place in a research and development company that sells licenses. Bet they would find a lot more in that mirror if they had the guts.
Beyond the R&D of this company, I personally have been at Cyclone's HQ numerous times to see the different stages of product development with many of their engines. I have seen these on the dyno machines run for different periods of time, testing, verifying, learning, estimating, evaluating the many aspects of the product design. Engine development has hurdles, some small some large, but development of anything worthwhile has the same.
Looking to the Engineering department at Ohio State, one understands that the Ford Ecoboost was sent here to be fine tuned and tested by these educated engineers...wonder how many Ecoboost engines Ford has sold ...SO FAR. My estimate is that these engines are in the proper hands for further development and fine tuning aspects.
Hope you have a great day.
