waymondospiff Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 The Taurus X shows up for the first month. In my opinion still the best car Ford makes. Here's to hoping the Taurus does well despite its name. Model - July 2007 --- July 2006 Edge - 9,096 --- 0/new Taurus X - 858 --- 0/new Freestyle - 1,847 --- 5,580 CX-7 - 3,868 --- 2,129 CX-9 - 2,158 --- 0/new Rendezvous - 481 --- 3,222 Enclave - 3,041 --- 0/new Acadia - 5,694 --- 0/new Outlook - 3,345 --- 0/new Highlander - 8,858 --- 11,999 Pacifica - 3,100 --- 4,759 Murano - 5,793 --- 6,603 Pilot - 13,136 --- 19,490 Santa Fe - 7,567 --- 8,027 Veracruz - 1,749 --- 0/new XL7 - 1,743 --- 241 Tribecca - 1,680 --- unknown (but 2007 is up 4% YOY) In order: 1. Pilot, 2. Edge, 3. Highlander, 4. Santa Fe, 5. Murano, 6. Acadia, 7. CX-7, 8. Outlook, 9. Pacifica, & 10. Enclave. Note: For the total year, the Pilot is still leading sales, followed by the Highlander, and then the Edge. Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LincolnFan Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 The Edge beated the Highlander, you might want to edit the last sentence. This is BS, How the hell can Honda NOT lose any sale in all of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waymondospiff Posted August 3, 2007 Author Share Posted August 3, 2007 The Edge beated the Highlander, you might want to edit the last sentence. This is BS, How the hell can Honda NOT lose any sale in all of this. The last sentence of my post references total sales for all of 2007 YTD (Year-to-date). For 2007 YTD the Highlander is outselling the Edge, but the Edge is closing the gap. As to the Pilot, sales are DOWN roughly 30% for the month and more than 10% for the year.

ANTAUS Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 The Pilot is getting long in the tooth, I think it's past it's ripe age... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wescoent Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 The Pilot is getting long in the tooth, I think it's past it's ripe age... Ironic the Explorer is still within spitting distance of the #1 CUV. I suspect with the on-road Explorer debuts, it will become #1 again pretty quickly.

silvrsvt Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 (edited) Should be interesting how Ford plays all of its SUV's and CUV's in the Future: Escape: truck-looking CUV Edge: Sporty CUV Taurus X: I'm a CUV, but I'm really a station wagon, not in name though Flex: I'm the car version of the Expedition with towing captibitly of an Explorer and I'm cooler then a Minivan Explorer: I used to be a SUV, but now I'm CUV that looks like an SUV Maybe it will be the Truck-like version of the Flex, a bit cheaper but is more like a SUV and "tough" looking Expedition: I'm still a real truck, just because I share my frame with the best selling Ford Product on the planet...

NickF1011 Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 Ironic the Explorer is still within spitting distance of the #1 CUV. I suspect with the on-road Explorer debuts, it will become #1 again pretty quickly. It's already an on-road Explorer. Anyone who thinks otherwise is rather delusional. The Explorer is faltering for one reason: It's ugly. Fix that ugly shnozz and watch sales climb again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
