If you think it’s ridiculous that Ford Motor Company can’t find a way to offer the Aussie Ford line to the American market, then take a look at this. A recent article from BusinessWeek.com showcases the Ford ECOnetic, an attractive and modern subcompact that gets 65 MPG on diesel. According to Businessweek, Ford America President Mark Fields, understands the ECOnetic is an “awesome vehicle” yet claims there are “business reasons” why it can’t be sold in the United States. In the meantime, here are three of five headlines from the “Latest News” section from the official Ford Media website…
