Ford sees no reason to spend serious money on redesigning these cash cow vehicles.


I would hope they have something very serious besides a new fender or fancy interior in the works & taken more than just passing notice of their brothers across town.

Granted, the new(er) management seemed to have had a bit more foresight than others but the simple fact is Ford's in debt up to the tip of the nose. Todays cash cows possibly being tomorrows albatross should haunt them. There was a bit in the news today about GMs new board ordering the respective divisions to speed up the new car intros so that ought to be causing a bit of thought.

They may be selling Fusions today but how many Fusions does a Town Car make when it comes to $$. The standby Crown Vic police car isn't seen that often out here lately & in what seemed to be the pickup capitol of the world with one in every other driveway, those also seem to have dropped off quite a bit.
