minus-squareCADmonkey@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·2 days agoMy prediction: the 2028 Ford Taurus will be all new, but obviously a re-badged BYD sedan, and it will cost $50,000. It won’t be specifically a Taurus or a Ford, but there will be US cars that are rebadged Chinese cars, with a 300% markup because shareholders. Does anyone remember the Ford Courier, Chevy LUV, and Dodge D50?
