Wonder if they will add the focus to the guide? Then ALL fords will be in the guide lol.

Just wait till after 2020 and if a dem gets in, immediately trucks must get 100mpg or else....all the tiny ****boxes come back...

Thanks Bret. Glad to hear there is hopefully a car for Nascar and a Mustang for drag racing and that this was " Fake News " :D

Its going to be the NASCAR SUV series!!!

Re: Ford announces to discontinue producing cars
 

The Focus will be a crossover version of Focus, not a sedan.

Re: Ford announces to discontinue producing cars
 

so they're dropping the Fusion and the Taurus? Not like this is 10 models or anything they're dropping 2 models... maybe the Fiesta would make 3, but is that really a car?

Re: Ford announces to discontinue producing cars
 

The official statement was that they were stopping US production on all cars except for the Mustang and a crossover version of the Focus. They are stopping the car versions of the Focus, the Fiesta, the Taurus and the Fusion. The crossover version of the Focus will be made in China, not in the US.

The cars will not all disappear until the 2022 model year.

Whoa Dude. The Fiesta ST is pretty fun when you turn the boost up and run 40% ethanol. The 1.6L eco boost easily handles 25 lbs and produces 220 hp 260 ft/lbs on the stock turbo, 285-300 hp 310 ft/lbs on a minimal upgraded turbo.

It don’t sound like much, but @ 2,700 pounds and mated to a 6 speed, the car is a rocket ship around the corners. Ford got this one right. It’s all you need or can handle in the city at a bargain price. The 4 doors come in handy when you have to run a couple kids around, and the hatchback can haul some groceries. Kinda like the old wagons.

Here is a couple photos of my daily as it sits today.
