I agree with Sherm, it's gonna be very interesting to see how all of this plays out. The two trucks are simultaneously pretty similar, and couldn't be more different at the same time.    They're both smaller, more affordable, apparently both will have a lot of accessories for customization. Apparently people who attended the Ford event back in August that gave us more details about CE1 said all of the vehicles might be build in one, fully loaded, configuration rather than having base and premium models. So both trucks might also be built with pretty limited off the line variations.    Yet the CE1 truck is a lot more advanced, faster, fun to drive, and 4 doors. I personally believe it's gonna blow slate out of the water, but time will tell. 

The Explorer was the best seller on this platform then the Taurus. The Flex had underwhelming sales as did the MKT.

You’re welcome, at least the problems were minimal. 

Correct and perhaps the current sales mix of Corsair also favours higher trims as well?

Me too. The green and tan was a great combination. Whenever I see a green and tan combination on something I call it the Eddie Bauer edition.

That's a good point regarding the transport chain.  On a cheaper model like Corsair on its own maybe the math is fuzzy, but if you already have a boat going over with Nautilus, you'd just take more space.

What a shame. Their clothes were pretty decent before they got taken over by private equity. I also really miss those Eddie Bauer Explorers and Expeditions....

I think it’s still viable to import Corsair and since the Nautilus transportation chain is already in place, maybe a lot easier than if a stand alone decision    Tariffs make things hard but maybe the premium price of Lincoln justifies the effort in keeping those monthly sales - established market, Ford can see real figures. Should know soon and if no announcement to the contrary Lincoln may play own coming from China 

Mb, that was an older still, I didn't know at the time that he posted that exact photo in reference to the EV, my apologies.
