Ford needs to do the same thing. Bring back the ICE Taureses and Escorts. Make a 5 speed manual Escort. They will fly out of the showrooms. The Taureses obviously for fleets.

Well, if we’re putting in requests...

Toyota, bring back the Scion xB, first gen.

Nissan, bring back the Cube.

Ford, bring back the Transit Connect minivan.

And cool/funky/oddball colors please. Black makes me feel like I’m driving a hearse.

If you do this, don’t screw them up.

And the hybrid Fusion. 40+ MPG and no plug-in to worry about.

I'm surprised Ford and GM have lasted this long. I would have expected them to sign a distribution deal with Sears and KMart to get away from that pesky dealerships where employees work directly with customers so they can figure out what the customers want to buy.

Still have my 2006 Taurus. Runs great. It's all paid off many moons ago. It is the same model that Jack Bauer drove in several 24 seasons. I drive a little more conservatively than Jack.
