[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 990848, member: 52972"] I suspect that Ford does not want to go the route that GM did....Too many models that were similar in size and function, with often just minor trim differences. GM carried it to an extreme by making different versions of the same vehicle for each GM Division. In the end, they became their own worst competitor. I suspect that is why Ford dropped the Mercury brand since every Mercury models was just an existing Ford model with minor trim differences. Chrysler appears to be looking at bringing back the mid-size pickup truck and thinks it will sell well. That is probably based on the fact that nearly all mid-sized pickup trucks have been dropped by the other manufacturers. That would let them corner the market on mid-sized trucks and they probably will sell well because there is little or no competition...and there are a lot of Die-Hard MOPAR fans out there. ...Rich [/QUOTE]
