I for one am impressed that ford is looking to use kenaf fiber in their vehicles. I think that when hemp becomes available they will easily switch over to hemp. Nothing laughable about ford either, I'll never buy another GM product if I can help it, Ford is a much better company with good solid products. GM screwed their stockholders by turning the old GM stock into a debt only company called Motors Liquidation and left them face down to die. Then borrowed a huge sum of money from the government (taxpayer money), and boldy said later, we're sorry but we're not going to be able to pay the taxpayers back all of the money we borrowed, as they bragged about million dollar profits. Ford never borrowed and didn't screw the American taxpayer or their shareholders.
