D-Dub,Mar 10 2005, 01: Wrote:bah you can say bye bye to the focus that car will never get a redesign here in North America. If you want to compete you have to put money in your cars, obviously they didnt want to so when it came time to test the focus against some new models of other companies cars the focus didnt have a chance.

If I were Ford I would kill all North American cars they make and import them from Europe, keep the trucks cause they sell alot but dump the car part.

I'm in agreement with D-Dub on the way ford of North America is being run today. I would love to see some more European / Aussie ford's being sold here in Canada, But I will disagree with killing all north american fords altogether.

As For Safety, Canada is better then the US when it dose come to Car safety, however since the Euroncap changed it's speeds, they are a lot faster then what Canada tests at presently. The standard test that Canada uses reflects the US version ( 35 MPH / 50 kph ) The new European standard is now 64 kph (40 MPH). If you want to see how euro cars stand up to the test check out their site.

I was the only member on this board with a Yellow Focus Sedan, and a 2002+ Euro Facelift on a sedan.
