My little .02; I read somewhere that the Tour cost Ford too much to make (there's that greed again). Or at least my 95 SE did; hence all the decontenting.
But I'm with most of y'all; Americans don't appreciate real class in a car. All we want is plenty of room, soft ATX ride, big bumpers, and oh yeah, CHEAP.
I love my car and it's design and all the extras that came with it (the 95). The recalls that needed to be done were done by the previous owner, and I'm having a good experience in getting maintenance done by the Ford dealer who sold me the car in Jan. 02. I paid 6200 for a beautiful car with 37,000 m. on it. I call that good value. I don't care if there isn't much knee room in the back seat. Whoever sits back there just has to sit sideways...
