Following the presentation of the new Focus organized under the Detroit show, Ford is expected to come to Geneva with the restyled version of its redesigned Mondeo, even if it looks already on its planned successor in the coming years. Only six weeks before discovering so openly that Mondeo discount up to date, that here in the snow in the process of completing its preparation.
Once in the dark ages of the sixties, the corporate watchword was ‘Ford has a better idea!’ complete with the exclamation mark and often with a light bulb in place of the ‘O’ in FORD. Well, maybe they were TH!Nking ahead for they have again found a use for the exclamation mark and the light bulb is completely appropriate.
In this new community of modern rustic half million dollar cottages, it was obvious that this is where the clean and friendly TH!NK Neighbor was meant to be. The weekend was highlighted by a classic car and boat show, and the cart was able to roll smoothly among its displayed brethren, melding with the other onlookers without disruption, and providing my arthritic knees and ankles with welcome relief. Still, I could chat with the other attendees and owners without the perceived distancing of being in a steel vehicular cocoon, and it left nary a mark on the turf. Truly, this critter is friendly, fun and respectful of its environment.
In the fall of 1998, one of the flashy new designs causing a stir at the Paris International Auto Show was an eensy-weensy economy car from Ford.
Dubbed the Focus, this new vehicle was narrow like other subcompacts, which made it ideally suited for navigating narrow streets of such worldly cities as London, Cairo, Cape Town, Dubai, Rio, Sidney, Singapore and Bangkok, where Ford intended to market the car.
Yet it also had a relatively long wheelbase and the roof was hiked much higher than conventional subcompacts.
Even though Ford came into the compact SUV market late in the game, it has made up for lost time with the Escape.
First introduced in the 2001 model year, Escape offers attractive exterior styling, roomy interior and a powerful (albeit optional) engine combined with good value that puts it in the top echelon of the crowded compact SUV category. While only in its second year of production, the Escape ranks up there with the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4 as one of the mini-SUVs consumers should consider when shopping for this type of vehicle.
Starting from a curbside slot on Broadway in the skyscraper center of Portland, we plot a course to Lincoln City, some 80 miles or so to the southwest on the rugged Pacific Coast of Oregon.
Vehicle for this daylight dash to the sea — Ford’s full-size Crown Victoria sedan — carves out enough room in the cabin to haul a team of tall basketball players plus heaps of gear bags stuffed into the cavernous trunk.
Our team totals only to two, though, so we can spread elbows and legs in luxurious comfort on the leather-clad bucket seats in a new LX Sport trim edition of Ford’s large sedan.
Ford’s Special Vehicle Team (SVT), the group that adds extra punch and pizzazz to a select few vehicles from the automaker, has certainly outdone itself with the power for the 2001 Mustang Cobra.
After a one-year hiatus in production, which gave Ford a chance to update the powerplant, the Cobra is now truly an apt name for the Mustang developed by SVT. This car coils just like that viscous snake, ready to pounce down the road with 320 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 317 foot-pounds of toque at 4,750 rpm.
The old saying doesn’t apply when describing the Ford Excursion. You know the one: “The bigger, the better.” When it comes down to it, the Excursion is simply too big for its own good.
Just one look at this vehicle and you may start feeling intimidated. You’re not alone in this feeling. People are probably intimidated by the Excursion’s size. It is taller, wider and longer than all the other full-size SUVs, including the Chevrolet Suburban, GMC Yukon XL, Toyota Sequoia and Lincoln Navigator.
