Mish,

Up 12% on a platform that might do 130,000 units in a year. Just window dressing and PR. Look at the decline on the big SUV's. Holy cow, that is pain for Ford as that is where all the profit is (what little profit there actually is on the sale of vehicles!)

Another reason that Mustang you saw having trouble in the snow is probably due to the real axle design. Not an independent type design. Very hard for better off the line performance. Just a toy car really, but we all need a toy or two.
