Default RE: 35-MPG CAFE Could Drastically Alter Detroit's Future Product Plans

This is not a good thing. Gov't making business more difficult for an industry that is already struggling and already over regulated. I hate the looks of the picture posted of the Lincoln MKS but I'm okay with the picture on the website. I think the biggest mistake Ford could make next would be to make the interceptor. Ford needs to get it in their heads that gigantic pieces of chrome on a flat oval design is UGLY! They need to just bring over the Falcon, it looks good and looks fun. The Crown Vic, Grand Marquire, and Town Car need to die and soon.

I hope that they are careful with how they will restyle the 300. I think they need to look into using a better transmission with more wisely chosen gear ratios for better fuel mileage.
