Taurus still has brand equity with a certain family/fleet/business demographic (probably no one here, however) and when you consider that the Grand Marquis is becoming a fleet car only for 2008 (same as Crown Vic) moving the 500/Taurus up to the old fogies category (no offense) makes sense if the plan is to slot the Mondeo just above Fusion.
Bringing back a name from the dead that you killed barely two years ago and affixing it to a car that is the automotive equivalent of a sleep aid?
"Bold Moves" my ass... try "Boneheaded Moves" :rolleyes:
