[Ron Porter]

Yeah...I guess!!

"Marketingspeak" Just like their claim that recommending BP gasoline is the
"first time" that a mfr has done so.

Jon,

Interesting.  I don't understand this quote from the article:

> The 2006 Fusion will become Ford's first all-new nameplate car for 
> NASCAR racing in 38 years, since the 1968 Ford Torino made its debut.


??????

What about the Thunderbird, and the Taurus?  They both were new 
nameplates and cars to NASCAR, maybe they mean the first nameplate NEW 
to Ford that was used as a NASCAR car in its first year?  That might 
make sense.
