I said like since I hav eno idea how many mpg it actually has past its above 40. Ford is doing a smart strategy. Europe has a stronger economy and small cars sell insanely well there so they want Europe to buy enough cars to pay off R&D before selling it in the US market which by that time should have an improved economy. It really isnt stupid in the business world.

 I agree that business wise this makes the most sense. Realistically the people who made this decision have never worked for Ford, and those idiots piss me off. I just don't agree that the other car is a good substitute. American consumers should be smart enough to make the right decision and force Ford to bring the better car here. I get amazingly depressed when I think like that though because I realize the average consumer will never get smart enough to make the right choice even in a situation this simple.

 

Frankly its good that we are getting the smaller cars, heck a new versions of a smaller cars. I think no matter what it is a benefit to the US citizens to get cheaper more fuel-efficient cars so I wont argue.
