  1. I have to totally agree with you, it seems all that TTAC is about is just publishing polarizing/inflammatory information. I read RF review of the 2010 Mustang and he was a total idiot...like saying he was afraid of the car going sideways on him, which is totally unjustified since I find it nearly impossible to do with my 06 GT with the TC engaged and little bit of driving skill not to wipe the car out.
  2. And that means a whole hill of beans to Ford...if they aren't making money on them
  3. From what I understand, I thought that the GT got the previous gen GT500 suspension and the GT went to the V6....but don't hold me that to that
  4. Well at least the front end is an improvement over the current Aveo!
  5. You have to be seriously smoking something here....between the TC and GM they sold roughly 900 more units they they did the year before... Thats sure gonna keep Ford out bankruptcy! :rolleyes:
  6. what about all those buyers who where burned in the 1970/80/90's by those said companies? All this does is compound the image issue that they have....and to be honest Ford seems to have finally figured out away to put distance between its old image and new image with the press and maybe buyers now.
  7. IMO Apple is still way overrated for what they've done...and this is coming from someone who has an iPhone and Macbook Pro
  8. Pretty underwhelming, looks like they did less then what Ford did going from the 500 to the current Taurus
  9. Funny you mention this but a year or two ago I saw one on its side on a residental street...and there wasn't any hairpin turns or anything that would have cause it to tip over like that either...
  10. I have to totally agree with you on this...outside of the midwest, the TC should do fine in urban/built up areas. If a company needs a vehicle to go more then 50 miles one way in a trip, a TC isn't for them.
  11. I have this nagging feeling that Chrysler wont' even last that long to get a rebadged/restyled Fiat to the US.
  12. There is still nothing wonderful about the 500 interior...the seats look like cheap office chairs and that interior is plastic fanatic in neat looking contrasting colors. I'd hate to see what that off white is gonna look like 2 years into the ownership experience...
  13. Ford designed the 05 Mustang to be profitable at 100K units a year...at 8K units a month thats more then 100K a year..
  14. Where is that barfing simile when you need it? I just don't get it, its not a good looking car IMO but its not that ugly either..
  15. So you would much rather have a total meltdown of the automotive industry in this country instead of whats currently happening? I don't like it either, but the alternative sucks even worse.

  17. http://wot.motortrend.com/6518221/we-hear/...2011/index.html First time I've heard that...though I think we'll be lucky to see them in less then 48 months....and Chrysler might be dead by then...
  18. An ex of mine had a Contour the same time I had my Focus....the Focus had the same, if not more interior room in the front seats as the Contour.
  19. The new SHO is right in line with the 89 SHO for pricing factoring in Inflation. So the New Mustang GT hardtop is over priced too when a fully loaded one retails for $38K or so?
  20. Speaking of the Contour, I saw a SVT Contour on the road Saturday (and a 1996-1998 Taurus SHO on the same road with in 5 minutes of one another!) and I was shocked at small it looked...it only looked slightly larger then the current Focus and down right tiny vs the Fusion.
  21. I was gonna mention that but didn't since I noticed the Mazda style symbol in the middle of it Whats the deal with the ugly flareside bed too...wow thats bad looking...but I guess its just flare out since the chassis is wider
