Cut the truck!!

Although the usefullness of the light and medium truck auto segments have become more useful, the price of fuel and the "MPT" (Money Per Tank) factor has decreased the sales numbers of that segment. Back in the late 80's and 90's, Ford had 7 car models and 3 main "truck" models (Explorer, Expedition, and F150 Series truck). Now they have 4 car models and 6 "truck" models (Escape, Taurus X, Edge, Explorer, Expedition, and F150 series); not to mention the gigantic Excursion model not being produced anymore.
