If Ford stopped making SUVs for years, and you needed an SUV, would you wait and speculate, or just buy a Nissan?

Since Ford started putting iPod adapters in all of their vehicles except that one SUV (which Ford had not stopped making and selling, rather had simply not refreshed the line in a while), I’d wait until that new SUV engine could send power to the iPod.

Since there’s been real life manufacturing delays on that powerplant, I’d probably wait to see the 2012 autoshow offerings before buying a Ford Escort with the 12 cylinder engine and a tow hitch.

…Or something more eloquent yet analogous to that.

So, you’d like the Smart Car?

I don’t really know anything about SUVs or iPods – or US car sales either. I just think car analogies are appropriate in this context.

And to show off – and of course demonstrate the closeness of the analogy of the two pieces of machinery – I built not just my Hackintosh with its modern graphics card, but my other car too –
