Re: Ford? A) Family has always owned Fords, never had to "push one down the street". 
B) Please don't make someone post all the issues Honda has had with their vehicles.
On point, this could be a good thing for those who need wifi on the road for work, however I can also see it being abused by idiots who try to use it while the car is moving. |

| I have 2 Fords and a Honda!
Keeping my fingers crossed that I won't have to push any of them down the street!

Ford makes great cars ... they are just not sold in the US unfortunately. The Focus ST, Mondeo, S-Max, with bunch of great reliable and efficient diesel engines (except the ST which has a Volvo Turbo monster). They cost more money because they are built much better with higher quality materials, but the european consumer has leaned to appreciate the overall value of a well engineered and built vehicle.
In the US most car shoppers look at car commercials, cup holders and stereos ... that's why we get CRAPOLA here.
Edit: Thank god we are at least getting the Fiesta, but no 60 mpg diesel engine. It totally kills Prius on the fuel economy. |

If foreign investors were smart enough they would develop a way to get the diesel engine in the festiva and sell it to the U.S. market. Keep in mind looking at the fuel economy of course.

You disagree with Ford I assume for not brining the engine, not me.  Check out this link: »jalopnik.com/397712/diesel-ford-···-625-mpg
