This is bad. Very bad. With this car, many more seniors will be on the road. Our roads, the ones we are on. South Park warned of this day in their classic episode when all seniors were driving at the same time.

Ford Tempo. With power output ranging from the 54HP Mazda-RF 2.0L Diesel to the 100HP 2.3L High Specific Output I4, it wasn't one for power. It was however an interesting car, successful in its day, has a very intriguing history, is lightweight, has all wheel drive, a diesel engine, and a manual transmission. Plus in

Has Chrysler learned nothing from mixing with those Urpeans? They're up to no good I tell you!

I've never felt so many emotions at once.

@elwood: Yeah but nobody will want to be seen in those things.

@Ash78: Heart click for the greatness of that post.

@kaubuchon: Damn you all to hell! (not you, PUMA/GM/Segway)

@pauljones: Viper. Don't forget the Chrysler's other good car!

Methinks the Ford Crown Victoria. In 2034, after the Apocalypse of 2012 and the subsequent collapse of all civilization (and by all, I mean the United States).. The most valuable cars will be the ones that last the longest. What lasts longer then a Crown Vic?

I am sure I'm not the only person here would would take a good old diesel over a hybrid or electric car any day. So of course, this news fills my heart with sadness. However this is silver lining in the big dark cloud that is called the auto industry.

A late 1990s or early 2000s Dodge Caravan. My family had a '98 and a '01, both entry level models. Nothing but a reliably, roomy, practical minivan with A/C and a stereo. Thats really all you need.

I do not have strong feelings one way or another. All I want from you, Ford, is to make some sort of good Focus.

@F*ckingPlushroom: You are right. Well, if its a manual, at least its got the same transmission as the 1984/1985 T/Ts. Even later Escort's used Ford IB four speeds, but thats about the only similarity between it and the older CE14-based models.
