[QUOTE="mosconiac, post: 5563791, member: 4013"] Hear me out on this one. "We" say the world needs [fill in the blank here] and when they listen, we don't buy it. "We" dream a lot and think we can out arm-chair quarterback the Big Three. "We" can't understand why they don't listen to our whims. Meanwhile, "We" are a few thousand people. A Global enterprise such as Ford must appeal to millions to make a $. We should be thankful they listen at all and make such niche cars as the the '00R, '03/04 Cobra, the '07/08 GT500, the Ford GT and a handful of other low production cars. "We" all wanted the 2-seater T-Bird to return. Ford built it in mass and it was a sales failure. "We" all wanted the Holden to come to America. GM brought it in mass and it was a sales failure. "We" all wanted an entry-level Shelby. Shelby put together the SGT using every part from the FRPP parts bin and sales are luke warm. There are some sitting on the lots. I could go on, but we all remember the other niche cars that failed. "We" should all be rejoicing that we can go down to our local dealer and purchase a supercharged, 5.4L (!) Mustang with 500hp, air conditioning, big brakes, 6-speed, solid axle,...,etc. Take a trip down memory lane (say 10-15 years ago) and remember how we said Ford doesn't listen and they would NEVER build a 500hp Mustang. It's here today. This IS the golden era...until Ford builds that 600hp Mustang. [/QUOTE]
