Ford brings back the Taurus.
Thanks for the correction Jan, There is no Mercury brand in Canada anymore, for some reason I thought the Montego was minivan'd down there! Of course the Freestar is now the TaurusX (????) with that sort of "marketing" the Mustang should be renamed the TaurusSC (SportCoupe) or to take the other tact call ALL the cars Mustang. They will be like franchises like CSI on TV. MustangX, MustangY, MustangZ and of course a nice Mustang four door wagon called the Mustang Urban Squire to dredge up and paraphrase another old name. Instead of wood grain mactac they can use satin brushed nickel mactac on the sides to "update" it. Throw some useless Microsoft junk in it. Woohoo!
Ford has dropped the Focus wagon too ( at least here in Canada) which has raised the ire of many here. I guess they think they'll move up to a TaurusX. My guess is they'll probably look elsewhere.
Bold Moves? Bowel Movements!
I hate being negative, I really wish Ford would get there $H!+ together. My daily is a Toyota Yaris. Most of the people who know me damn near fainted when I bought it. It gets 52 MPG ( well 45 with my lead foot). Ford has nothing in that segment so.... sorry. Stu
