Come this time next year, the Ecoboost I-4 Falcon will be here and is aimed
directly at government and private fleet sales. If it is as successful as Ford
thinks, it could nearly double sales. That could almost guarantee that the
next falcon will be RWD - Wouldn't that be great!

The I-4 will probably offer enough differentiation to prevent I-6 and V8
resale values from suffering due to increased fleet sales.

Funny how the media judges Ford's 2015 future on what's happening now
instead of where it will be in 12 months time......
