That's pretty much describes a current ad, doesn't it?

Ba-dooom-ching.

Seriously, Ford has some really great cars in their line up that are all sold outside the US. Some of them could even be described as smart, fun and refined. What I can't figure out is why they plague the US market with the loosers (Escape hybrid excluded of course ). It's like Eruope gets the great cuts of meat and the US market gets all the fat they trimmed off. If the Fusion wasn't a gas-hog, it might actually be a worth while car to own. It's not bad looking. If the Edge wasn't a gas hog, it too would be a worthy vehicle. If the Explorer wasn't a gas hog...

Do the people working at Ford not pay for their own gas???
