I like it. The refreshes, even though limited entirely to the Chinese market (for now) are quite complimentary.

Wish the article had included some interior pics.

Makes me (almost) want to go to China and bring one back to the States.

I still firmly believe that the powers that be over at FMC were/are incredibly short sighted by pulling completely out of the car market altogether (save their iconic Mustang of course).

In the last 2yrs alone, I purchased a (used) 2014 Fiesta Titanium, 2014 Ford Focus SEL, and a 2018 Focus Titanium for each of my children respectively.

Families have varying needs. College kids = small cars/high mpg's. As they get older = midsized cars, less concern on mpg's with a greater focus on amenities, options, etc.

Middle aged and older folks still like the sedans and sporty cars (besides just the pick 'em up trucks and SUV'S).

Hopefully Ford STRONGLY reconsiders their postion(s) and decide to return the Taurus to the American market(s) respectively.

Is it too late to start a change.org petition to "Bring Back The SHO"????
