Default Re: Major Ford announcement

Me too - a simple station wagon with vinyl bench seats, good foot heater, rubber floor mats and room for surfboards.

Check this out, the demand is there in Western countries for simple, reliable transport:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dacia_Logan

"The Logan was designed from the outset as an affordable car, and has many simplified features to keep costs down. It replaces many older cars in production, including the Romanian Dacia 1310 series of Renault 12-based cars.

It was officially launched in September 2004. Renault originally had no plans to sell the Logan in Western Europe, but in June 2005, began importing a more expensive version of the car, starting at around €7,500.[2] It was an unexpected success with people wanting an inexpensive, no-frills car they could repair themselves."
