By “done poorly” I meant that the last Town Car was on a 33 year old platform. No one buying a new car wants one from the 70’s.

Even if it is not a huge seller; it is an image car. Lincoln needs to be desirable again. When people hear the name Lincoln, they need to think of something other than the hearse at the last funeral they went to. If it is done right, Lincoln will be talked about again and people will at least make a stop by the…

Gas taxes will only work short term. A gas tax would only speed up our move to electric (and fuel efficient) cars. Any increase in revenue from gas taxes won't last long. We need a whole new revenue system to pay for it in 30 years, when most new cars are electric.

They better name it Roadmaster. It has been a long time since cars had such glorious names.

Really? They think that will sell better than this?

I forgot Suzuki still exists.

What do you mean by a "simple demand and offer situation?" I have not heard that phrase before.
