For all of you who thought that bringing back the Taurus name would help sell cars... how exactly do you like your crow prepared?

None of us ever suggested that simply attaching the Taurus nameplate to an already-existing, bathtub-like conveyance was going to sell more cars. It was, though, a marketing error to simply do away with the Taurus name.

It looks as though Ford might finally be figuring that out.

Ford destroyed the Mustang in the late 70’s and eighties the exact same way they are ruinning the Taurus. Tribal knowledge should teach someone something.

Like this was any better?

Bathtub, check. "Generic conveyance" at best, check.
