Ford also has potential problems with a bunch of dealers who paid a lot of extra money over the years to own the "exclusive" rights to the SVT franchise name.

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.
