Dear Santa

All I want for Christmas is...

1. S version in 2015
2. Smooth transmissions for all
3. No FUD....OK on the BMW forum
4. Forum members who listen to the concerns posted by others without assuming an alternative motive
5. That Acura can be everything to everyone
6. Merry Christmas and/or Happy Holidays to all.

Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt. Also known as scare tactics, either accomplished by threat or making the opponent doubt his standpoint. Not only used in lawsuits, but also in politics and military propaganda.

People use it in an attempt to dissuade potential buyers from buying a TLX by saying it's unsafe or many other things that aren't true. We have our share of FUD spreaders in this section.

I laugh when I see what FUD can stand for according to wikipedia:

Fud or FUD may refer to:

- FUD (brand), a Mexican brand of cold cuts and hot dogs
- Fear, uncertainty and doubt, a marketing or political strategy
- Female urination device
- Fully undetectable

Happy New Year !

p.s. Glad you defined your references.
