The new Montego is a nice picture, but is it a permissable use? If it's copyright and there's no written permission, it shouldn't be up. RivGuySC 18:49, 11 Aug 2004 (UTC)
I don't believe this car qualifies as full-size. According to Ford's own specs, compared to the Grand Marquis, it's a foot shorter, 10 inches narrower, and 600 lbs. lighter. The reviews I've seen are comparing it to Accord, Camry, Passat, and the new Buick LaCrosse--all mid-size. RivGuySC 03:41, 22 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- The US EPA classifies the Montego as a "large car" - it's in the largest vehicle size class, along with the Taurus, Impala, 7-Series, Grand Marquis, etc... The Accord, Camry, Passat, and S80 and Sable (?!) are "midsize". It's a big car - I've driven one. The Fusion is intended as the midsize, while the Five Hundred/Montego are the new fullsize, replacing (sometime) the Crown Vic/Grand Marquis. --SFoskett 18:01, Dec 22, 2004 (UTC)
