    FORD has 8.7 billion dollar loss!

    That isn't true, ford started making crossover suv's in 01 with the escape and they built the fusion before gas prices went up. Toyota is also effected by the higher gas prices, so it's just not a ford thing. Ford is only building 2 regular suv's, the explorer and exdedition and the explorer is...

    FORD has 8.7 billion dollar loss!

    You can't blame ford, they only built what the people wanted and were buying. The suv isn't dead yet, ford is still selling alot of the crossover suv's like, the escape and edge and people will allways need trucks. People are just shocked right now with these gas prices.
