[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What!?! They’re bringing back the name but applying it to a truck!?! The Maverick was our family car in the 70s — we rode around town in harvest gold style. I can’t imagine the same name applied to a pickup. [/quote] Ford is pretty much going to stop making cars, gotta recycle all those names on something.[/quote] Coupes and sedans have a very limited appeal compared to what most people desire in a vehicle. For sheer maximization of useable space and volume-for-footprint, crossover SUV’s/wagons are a much better design. A sedan basically sacrifices all the potential interior volume behind the rear seats above the trunk line and below the roofline. That’s probably 15-25 cubic feet less volume for an otherwise identical size car. Sedans are just plain dumb and wasteful from an engineering perspective. Coupes have merit as sports cars, because with only two doors, there’s no pretense about it being useful for anything besides hauling two people and some luggage. But sedans are just dumb. [/quote]
