Default No more falcon?
not sure were to post this..

after reading the latest wheels/motor magazine they are making a big call!! that is that by 2015 falcon will be replaced by a fwd or awd taurus. powered by a 6cyl TT

Now i know that they do come up with alot of bull in those mags to sell it
like how they always have talked down on the boss motor...

I have to say that i have been to the USA in 2000 and been in a taurus hire car , it was **** house compared to any base model falcon!


anyone shed more light in this??

Why don't they just send the Falcon to the US to replace the Taurus? Why give us all a worse car than what we have, when we can keep the good car and give them a better car?

Because Americans are renowned around the world for having poor taste in most things?
