If it's not a pickup that will sell millions, they don't care anymore.
Pickups + fleet = majority of their business. The rest are all niche sales.
I will admit, they've gone from bad to crazy. They've cancelled every afforable performance vehicle they've made in the last 10 years, and priced the rest they do make out of reach of the common individual.
Performance is power, and to Ford power isn't cheap nor should it be readily available. Therefore, performance is expensive. Either you become inured to the fact that performance is expensive, or you just don't buy fast Fords.
