NEW YORK, June 26 (UPI) -- New York's taxi industry says it is so-far underwhelmed at the next generation of cars slated to replace the Fords and Lincolns that currently shuttle folks.
Ford has announced it will soon close the plant in Canada that manufactures the roomy Ford Crown Victoria and the venerable Lincoln Town Car, leaving the Big Apple looking at smaller cars, including hybrids and even Volkswagens, as replacements.
