well true enough. but what do I see as fleet vehicles?

half ton pickups with v6s, 4 and 6 cyl Dakotas, Focus wagons and lots
of Taurus sedans. I'm not seeing the Magnum replacing any of these.
granted it seems they're shipping with a puny powerplant availble but
it strikes me as just not 'sized' for fleet use.

if they're hoping it is, well then I hope I'm wrong. but I just don't
see it.
