That's not an "if" -- it's a "when"......

Yes, we'll enjoy the temporary relief in fuel prices as long as we have them, but "below $70.00 oil" is not a realistic position long term. As soon as any kind of real economic recovery occurs, oil will be back in the "$100.00-plus" range in a very short period of time.

Ford got burned very badly in the early 2000's by not having any answers for improved fuel efficiency -- I can't see them letting this happen twice.

well the 93 explorer limited is probably gone, lady ran a stop sign (damn f150 drivers ) and dad hit her at 35mph. Have a feeling its totaled cause the insurance isn't going to want to fix it cause of the year even though it only has 21k miles on it. Main thing is dad is ok, a vehicle can always be replaced!

Yeah -- that Explorer might be totaled from the insurance companies standpoint, but you would have to be CRAZY to not fix that truck with only 21k on the clock! Fix the cosmetic damage and keep driving that thing and you'll be tens-of-thousands of dollars ahead of whatever you might be able to replace it with using the insurance money!

Unless, of course, you're sick of driving it and staring at the same instrument panel for 20+ years.......
