They also put the new SVT Focus on hold as well. From what I've read elsewhere, they did it to concentrate on the upcoming SVT Mustang.
The fact that they are losing money and sales are down probably doesn't help much either.

Thats nothing new, They more then likely are laying in wait. But Ford needs to make something for the Ranger with the Toyota X-runner coming out.

this has been known for a few days. autoweek and such are reporting it. also, SVT did want this to happen, it was a Ford decision. probably cause their company had a close call and they need to make it stable again.
