Ford seems to be playing funnel games with cutting so many models and not really listening or giving much options to their customers.
So which models do you look forward to buying or have a wish to buy? Is One Ford a Farce? For me personally Mustang Is still on the right track V8 Rear Drive Pony still true to it's roots for the most part. F150 is desirable but not available in Australia really needs to be. Fusion 2.7 TT Model is desirable again not available in AUS? Ranger is another I do like. Raptor is good but listen to the customers we need more engine options. V6 in any shape or form will silence us all. As for SUV's just not for me and Ford doesn't really make anything that stands out will Bronco change that or will it again be a mistake? Love to hear some thoughts Cheers!

Mustang. At least we have the option of a muscle car in this day and age.
Focus RS is a cracker. Just bought a Focus ST and desperately hoping in a few years time I can still buy one. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

keen to see what the new CD6 platform models are - we might have a chance of getting those

A Mustang would suit me fine but then I would have to get rid of one of my Falcons. Hence no Mustang at my place any time soon.

Ford GT and Mustang are great poster cars, but nothing that is likely to receive my money in the Ford line-up.
The TT Fusion might have been worth it, but unfortunately it's not available here and it won't be available anywhere else soon.

So it's safe to say we all love performance and if Ford slips on this interest is sure to slip too.
Don't Mind Seeing Older Fords probably the most desirable Fords anyway. As For Me Older Models Would Be : Any Falcon With a V8 Or Turbo Mondeo XR5 Focus RS (5 Cylinder Version) Mustang Sapphire/Sierra Cosworth models
