Ron,

sorry to tell you but there was never a comparable model from FIAT. This Yugo design was exclusively done for the US, we fortunately have never seen that rolling toaster in Europe ;-)

So, I am to conclude that since Ford's primary platform, the 1998 Ford F150 is really just an acquired technology based on the Model T and that all subsequent Ford models are essentially internal combustion engines mounted on a frame and four wheels.

(I don't buy it, Ron. There is a great deal of evolution going on at Ford and Microsoft. As for the Yugo, that technology was bought by Tito from the Italians in 1957, (they bought Fiat factories) and frozen, because in a totalitarian regime you can set standards and enforce them. They don't need no stinkin' innovation. And the standard for an automobile in Yugoslovia was "1957 Fiat--period". Then the fools tried to be capitalists and export that piece of crap.)
