I wonder if the removal of the insane CAFE mpg requirements were part of this decision.

They and other automakers seem convinced no one wants sedans anymore, just SUVs.  :shrug:

Bye bye Taurus, Fiesta, and Fusion.

Can I be there for the execution?



Oh yeah. Eff Ford.

Have you been in a Buick Encore crossover? They're built for midgets. They just sit higher.

They make a police version of Taurus, but a lot of PDs are just buying the Explorer instead.

I have a Subaru Impreza four door sedan. I tried to drive their 5 door one which looks like a little SUV and I couldn't see out the back window. I had to pull off the road and make the salesman drive

I love my Subaru Forester.  It's been a good little workhorse, while averaging 30 mpg.

About every hillbilly cabin around here has a 3/4T 4x4 pickup and a Subaru sitting outside... because that's about all that can get up there in the wintertime...
