well, ford needs to do something because the company is going down really
fast. I have heard several financial reports of ford as well as other talk
that they have been having very poor quality lately, they are not working
very hard on new models (that they will actually build), and they are in
need of a total reorganization. Apparently they are running very
inefficient. They said ten years ago the quality of fords was second only
to very expensive imports, today they are one of the lowest.
don't chew me out...if you disagree...that's just what I have heard...an
interview by automotive experts...I just can't remember where I heard
this...

Not really...remember Chuck from Roush? He is the Project Manager that
drives the Durango and works on the Lightning Program. After reading
between the lines, the 2004 Lightning will become the Ford Frightening.
What the rumors are floating is a twin blow-zilla blower (one per bank) and
a new motor. It is the same with the special Boss 2003 Ferdstang. This one
will compete with the Vette Z06 head on. Meaning-same power band.
