beleive it or not i am actually a ford man .i drive fords and am restoring a xp coupe
a good friend lives and works in america he was reading in american motor magazines about australian built fords compared to american built vehicles -surprisingly even coming from an american writer
-he said "if you drive a falcon compared to american equivalent there is no way you would even contemplate buying american .fuel economy ,handling ,safety features and overall build quality far surpass the american car "
as mentioned earlier in the thread about importing the v6 . i also believe this is a vain effort to prop up ford america .:horse:
as howard mentioned earlier the falcon motor you get more bang for your buck
it is very unfortunate to see yet another good aussie product get slammed by globalisation and the almighty dollar
-our thoughts are with the workers and their families and sincerly hope they can find other jobs where their great skills are not wasted and lost
wish you all the best of luck
