I'm going to miss Fairlane

[prydey]

my Ford [not river crossing] is very good as well

[Elks]

I've been to Fairlane, in Dearborn MI



Says Elks, Not the large moose like animal.

[Franco Cozzo]

Occasionally I like to drive to work with the Fiesta [Not the party/feast/festival].

[max_torq]

fairlane is okay, though i like my thunderbird [not North American native rain deity]

[Chopped]

Lol, I think a new internet Meme has been born...

[bob^]

Maybe they can bring back the Fairlane name along with the GT HO[not a promiscuous girl]

[gcg2503]

I bet Raser [not razor - device used for shaving] feels a bit sheepish starting the [....] trend

[flooded one]

my forte (not strong point) runs well

Well there is the G6 [not a luxury personal aircraft] now on offer.

[Bossxr8]

I've noticed the new Ranger (not park) is quite big, is it bigger than a Fairlane (not farm)?

[NanoDuke]

This thread [not sewing] is full of win.

[Hayden1]

The Fairmont is very much like a G6 [not song]

[Elks]

Bourke & Wills were Explorers (Not the SUV) that went to the Territory (Not the SUV)

[80kms]

[flooded one]

old mustangs (not horse) are tuff like old falcons (not bird)

[XAGSV8]

My Fairmont (fair (not cheating) Mont (not Mont Blanc, a massif in SW Europe, mainly between France and Italy: the highest mountain in the Alps; beneath it is Mont Blanc Tunnel , 12 km (7.5 miles) long. Highest peak (in France): 4807 m (15 771 ft)) is turning 40 this year.

This is by far the funniest thing I've read in ages! I hope flappist doesn't decide to lock it, it's quite funny and not hurting anyone I hope!

A thread lock [not Dunlop SAS116 Thread Lock] would be a tragedy.

But what's the power difference on a dyno [not prehistoric]?

[SPArKy_Dave]

I'm quite partial to XF's [not the Jaguar] I have quite a few.
I like to drive them around, pretending I'm living a dream, cruising along the coast of Italy, in an XF [not ford].

I overtake a slow Corsair [not computer chip], as I'm heading to Naples, near Capri [not Ford],
where there awaits my mistress, in a beautifully restored Cortina [not spanish musical interlude].

As I drive, window down, wind rustling through my hair, I hear the unique roar of a Mercury, [not ford] propelling a boat along the bay,
and my mind drifts, with the thought of a romantic dance with my mistress to the soft sounds of a Cortina [not ford] after a heart pounding tango.
As I arrive, my mistress steps out of the car, wearing the tightest pair of Capri's [not ford] you've ever seen.
She brings with her, the laptop I asked for, powered by the latest most reliable Corsair [not ford] memory chips money can buy. After all, it holds the very key to our innocence.

We briefly embrace before abandoning our cars for another waiting beast. We can't risk being caught. Not when we're this close to freedom.

I start the turboed Capri [not island in italy, or tight pants], and we roar off down the uneven cobbled laneway heading towards the bay.

In the distance, I hear the unmistakable roar of a Windsor [not british royal family] screaming at the redline.
Suddenly in the mirror, a Mercury [not outboard motor] appears from round the corner, tyres screeching.
I start to panic, it's getting closer and closer by the second. I look over at my mistress, wondering if it was right to involve her in this.
Too late now.
As we dart in and out of laneways, I glance fleetingly at the temperature gauge slowly rising, the Cosworth not liking constant boost, and I wonder........who could be pursuing us......
Heaven help me if the royal windsor[not ford V8 engine] family ordered us captured.

I glance in the mirror again, our pursuor fast approaching. They're going to ram us I yell.
With the roar of the american V8 and scream of a tortured turbo in my ears
we're shunted violently forward. My mind looses focus.......
everything goes silent.


gradually, my eyes swim back into focus.............
with a mixture of relief and dissapointment, I let out a sigh, realising that I'm sitting in my worn out XF Falcon, still on my way home from work.
I'm not an international spy,
there's no mistress beside me,
and our pursuer..........
just the impatient fool behind me, taking offence at my lack of movement, with the green light ahead.


Someday, I murmur as the old Ford rolls forward........ Someday.......

it's funny you say that, because the exhaust is the only factory thing i've changed because people kept asking if it was an XR6.

PS, fairlane should have never been dropped. ford let it die.

I wonder if this was FoA calculated plan [not phone] right from the off?

ie/ Start killing off all the extra models one at the time, and then your left with one last model, then that dies as they have less excuse to stop production due to low demand.

Not sure, but somebody told me that before the 380 died [nee, Magna] its volume was still more than the Falcon currently is?

If thats true the Falcon is as good as dead.

Will Ford start importing a large sedan, or not even bother with large sedans any longer, and just sell Mondeo in its place, the market is changed.

How much longer do i need to wait for my $30k F150?
