Mondeo came first. Think darkly again.

No, actually my last ford (94 'scort) got to 179K with only one major repair, the AC, alt., rack, struts, tranny all lasted
the life of the car..

I think you're outnumbered, Ktulu!! ;)

Not a bad looking car, but let's wait and see how screwed up the folks at Ford can make it by the time it hits the dealerships. :roll:

why don't they simply sell the mondeo here? in europe, it's widely accepted as a not bad car - which would be a nice change of pace.

because last time they tried to sell the mondeo here it was a big time failure.

the mondeo may now be riding on the fusion platform. but i've heard conflicting reports about that.

2008 Mondeo Platform is the EUCD. EUCD is expected to replace the current NA C/D platform.

Judging by the blurry picture, it looks way better than the Honda.
I don't know why people harp on the old Taurus so much. It was a great car until it's 10th birthday and then it went to crap. It didn't matter how many miles you put on it, at it's 10 year birthday from getting out of the factory everything went nuts. My old job had about 10 of the original Tauri(?) and all of them took a crap 10 years after they were put into service.
