1) how to justify the money these dealers spent if they keep SVT alive but with a single model (or two) and with a questionable future, and
2) what to do if they choose to bring SVT back as a model variant available to all dealers - probably be looking at a class action lawsuit. That's why the Taurus was a SHO and not an SVT - they wanted the wider distribution.
