Mea Culpa
Nobody asked me but . . .
A couple of days ago I railed about Ford renaming the Five Hundred, the Taurus. And I was wrong when I said Ford would probably rename the Montego, the Merkur. Instead, Ford has decided to call it the Saybull.

Say what? And by the way, what was the significance of the "500" moniker??

Dear Anonymous,
500 is a moniker Ford used with a variety of premium models, beginning in the 1960s, I believe. Remember the Fairlane 500 and the Galaxie 500?
