    This may sound stupid but, why don't they sell falcons in the US?

    I think the falcons have such a better look than a taurus.

    Agreed. I think the Taurses have now been banished to fleets and the Five Hundred takes its place. It's too bad that they didn't make the Five Hundred RWD.

    Taurus is smaller than the Falcon, Falcon would replace the Crown Viccy...

    hehehe, it would be sweet if the police cars were falcons, and those who aren't familar with the US, the crown vic is probably the standard to many many police departments.

    Ford Falcon is the main Police car in New Zealand/Aussie, along with the Holden Commodore, which could replace the Chevy Impala, come to think of it.

    the first one is an AU, the second is a BA Falcon, the Third is a EL Falcon, and the fourth is an AU.

    The first one in the second group is a BA, the next 2 are EL Utes, the Fourth is a BA again.

    The First in the Third group is a BA, the next three are AU's.

    This is a car which bombed in Australia, we weren't very receptive to the New Edge of the AU, but the BA is going great guns. The real reason it isn't sold in the US is that the factory workers in the US would have a hissy fit, a big selling car made in Australia rather than the US, that't why there is only 18,000 GTO's going to the US. also the AU bodyshell was never engineered for LHD, so it's stuck beign right hand drive.

    IB4R the 2nd and 3rd in the second batch are EF Utes, the difference is in the grille. Hard to tell, but true..

    The EL gained the grille between the headlights, and the GLi and Futura got Amber lense tailights over the EF's clear lense units, for those who are wondering.
