this isn't aimed at you jpd80, but just this comment in general. its one that i don't like. holden (with commodore) don't offer any more than ford does (with falcon) and yet the masses on here always say that ford don't give people what they want, and apparently holden does???

so a large car, made to a budget is exactly what people want, and its also what people don't want, depending on which badge it has??

getting back to sales, does anyone, apart from the accountants at ford, know the exact figure as to how many units falcon needs to sell to be viable?

toyota sell a lot more cars, but their local content is still reasonably small. are they being propped up by their imports?

its all guesswork and whilst we would all like to see sales increase, its a different world now, and there's a lot more choice. i believe there is a good chance ford have moved with the times a lot more than we give them credit for and we need to not be so 'falcon focussed', but see it as just another model in the ford stable.
