Guest XR09 Guests Posted 10/01/12 04:41 AM Share Posted 10/01/12 04:41 AM Ford never plays nice with the Gov. To their credit they have paid back their depts to the giv here and in the US I believe.To sell a third of the units the comodore does, and make a good profit is good work. Or raping us blind.

It (like the MkII) would likely have extra 'features' like auto dimming headlights, auto wipers, maybe an internal HDD for music, etc. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/73631-is-the-falcon-going-the-way-of-the-dodo/page/13/#findComment-1179354 Share on other sites More sharing options...
