Ford can’t afford to sell their own cars here because the cost of federalizing them would exceed projected sales (smaller models have historically been designed by Ford Europe).
And that doesn’t even go into Ford’s legal troubles with CBP over the chicken tax (for the transit van).
The US regulations don’t benefit anyone except the useless, overpaid bureaucrats at NHTSA.
It was a big hit when they brought it back for a year in 2014-2015.
Unfortunately this time it’s auto only.
