I wonder who started sayi...Joel, it's not just you. I wonder who started saying it looked like a Mini on steroids, probably a Ford marketing guy. But the white roof and general shape and proportion are closer to a wimpy FJ Cruiser.<BR/><BR/>Shawn, the Mini Van market will shrink, but isn't it sad that Ford never ever got it right? The Aerostar was crap, then the Windstar became so bad they had to change the name to Freestart, and hope people would think it was someting new.<BR/><BR/>CUVs and small SUVs are going to be a big part of the market that's for sure, and luckily Ford has some promissing products. That 3.5 DOHC V6 is long overdue, but the 265 hp will make up for some of that.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the tips on quitting, unfortunately I had been at stage 2 and for some stupid reason decided to sneak a smoke for old times sake. So it's starting from square one. I had actually quit for 5 years and started again. <BR/><BR/>I've also tried the gum and cough drops routine, works somewhat. I just don't want to go for the "patch" or hypnosis. I'll kick it eventually, but combine that agrivation with the change in my schedule and I'm just a cranky lazy guy.Big Ford Fanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07649352599746912038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24487566.post-1151411762946834942006-06-27T05:36:00.000-07:002006-06-27T05:36:00.000-07:00Minivan market is drying off anyway.

While it is more useful than an SUV...I think most people are going with small SUVs or CUVs now.<BR/><BR/>I think Ford will do well with Fairlane...but please change that Fairlane name!<BR/><BR/>I think the new 3.5 is going to help a lot. The products are coming out very slowly, but I think they are doing the right thing making sure everything is good quality before it is released.<BR/><BR/>Okay Joe, I'm an ex-smoker. It's been 2 years since my last cig. I wish you the best.<BR/><BR/>Mint & gum really helped during the 1st stage with the craving. The 2nd stage is when you feel like you've kicked it and home free. Final stage is when you feel like you can have a cig and not smoke again because you haven't smoked in weeks or months. This is when most smokers fail. Just remember you can never touch another cig again.<BR/><BR/>Good luck.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24487566.post-1151340720935287992006-06-26T09:52:00.000-07:002006-06-26T09:52:00.000-07:00Is it me or does the Fairlane and the Toyota FJ Cr...Is it me or does the Fairlane and the Toyota FJ Cruiser look similar?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
