Found this on wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury_Marauder

"In 2008, the Ford Performance Group officially began recognizing the Mercury Marauder (along with the Motor City Marauders Car Club as the official club for the vehicle). And as of Fall 2009, the Ford Performance Group also began offering certificates verifing the Mercury Marauder as a Limited Production Vehicle."

Since when did FPG recognize MCM as the official Marauder club?

Just submit an edit saying that MM.net won a battle royale with MCM and is now the king of Marauder sites. Problem solved.

MCM has mandatory annual "Dues", membership renewals, and membership cards, so I guess they are a club. :rolleyes:

Wouldn't they be considered a "regional" club? Motor City meaning Detroit?

Agreed....where owning a Trilogy or hating Zack, DR or MM.net is not a requirement to be socially accepted.

I didn't know there was tension between the two sites. I always figured that since it was such a small community that it was basically the same people in both places.

Nope.

Has been some hard feelings amongst some folks for a while. Started up before I came on board, but the worst of it may be past. I hope so. There are some double posters, but not the majority.

I can't, it requires a certain percentage of "passes" to maintain my faith in humanity.....so I took it down :eek:

Sorry, this isn't true. There's enough hate to go around without making stuff up. IMHO, there's too much talent in both places to totally disregard either.

But Ford saying one is a official Marauder club over another is a little questionable.

I didn't know the accusations of "paying dues" would create any hate. If that's the case, I'm gonna start telling people their mom "pays dues on MCM".

"Ford" isn't saying it; a Wiki article is saying Ford Perf. Group does.

I guess that you are challenging the word "mandatory". MCM does use the term DUES. MCM does have an annual renewal drive each December for the following year. MCM does issue membership cards and a goodie bag with some items in it. What part did I make up?

I didn't ever get sore because of you, but you are beginning to be a pain.

I was going to delete this thread. I appreciate Paul's post. Yes, FPG chose to associate with the Motor City Marauders. Dave P. was the the driving force behind the production certificates and that was certainly a factor in the association of the two. FPG did not exclude MM.Net members or any Marauder owner. While FPG didn't make any inquires to us about MM.Net, I am grateful that they've now produced a document that we've longed for.

I'm closing this thread. It's too bad we can't have discussions without trash being thrown around. Some of you need to grow up a little bit (or a lot.)
