I don't really mind carrying the names forward, but then I wasn't alive to see most of these the first time through. I thought the first-gen Taurus was well-received, and we know the early Mustang was as well. Both cars had dark periods, but I don't know that it's worth throwing a name away over.

yah, with that in mind, that might be okay for the younger crowd of today.
im not sure since im not a ford fan, but also, i think they failed miserably with the 500 or watever that fugly sedan was that was supposedly the replacement for the taurus(?) so perhaps they wanted the name recogntion again to ensure that people know it's a ford car to isolate bad memories.
