Just some prelim figures. Hilux number 1 by a landslide. Focus outselling Falcon by 60%

Territoty remain steady, i wonder what the break up of engine choice is?
Good to see the focus gain sales. Would the shift to Thai built cars include a lower RRP?

Whats the deal with Ranger supply, they could sell double if they could get supplies. Pull the whip out FFS. Commodore is copping a canning nearly as much as Falcon is. |

Plus it was only in May (last month) that production has got back to initial planned output. It seems the actual plant was OK, rather the suppliers that have suffered enormously.http://www.freep.com/article/2012050...inrichs-floods Last edited by Dr Smith; 04-06-2012 at 06:54 PM. |

Same with Focus and Fiesta, Focus is in big demand but a little hard to sell when you cannot supply.

Yeah the Falcon has been averaging about 1100 vehicles a month now ... probably will end up with 12K - 13K vehicles sold in 2012 ... ouch indeed.

If anything, the commodore's drop is more alarming.
Having said that, people may be holding out for the VF.

Does it matter, it won't make much difference to the numbers cause they hardly build/sell any.
4 today. V8's have outsold them so far. |

With skinny sales, there's no point in stockpiling cars (money), better to build to order. |

Poor Falcon... It's such a shame, but how much longer can they go on like this? I say it every month. You're probably sick of hearing it by now.

Falcon hasn't got much hope of selling anymore if the Commodore is struggling with under 3000 sales.

the Falcon and commodore have reached their trough, wont go lower. But both badly need lineup revamps...but can u invest a lot in a car which doesnt sell as much as 5 yrs ago?

As a Ford fan, I've played the victim long enough. Not anymore. Focus selling 1600? Hmm, I wonder if sponsoring that little show called THE VOICE had anything to do with it? I was cynical about the Falcon's future about 8 months ago and I let the ever 'positive' fans on here turn me around. Sorry, it doesn't look like anything will save the Falcon. A real crying shame as it is the best car in its class.
