^^^^^ Those are the vehicles to concentrate and grow the business, work with Falcon and
if it's doubtful, do something about a fitting replacement, don't just give up

agree, why spend time and money on a car in a diminishing segment (large cars)? i'm not saying give up on falcon, but they need to have products in segments that are growing, and ford are doing that. its just the people that want falcon to be a 'one size fits all' car that are getting upset. falcon still has a place but it will never be top of the charts again until (IF) large cars are back in vogue. nearly every manufacturer still produces at least 1 model in the large segment, it just isn't their bread and butter model anymore. falcon will be the same.
