Ford to Replace Extinct Probe with "Thermoma Recto" for '08

Ford set the tempo for a decade of sex-themed auto monikers with their anally-oriented Probe over 10-years ago. The chrome slathered bull nose of the Ram was soon to follow, and the broad guzzling Hummer kicked it up yet another notch. For 2008 the Ford Motor Corp will push that naughty envelope once again with the re-branding of the Probe to the questionable Thermoma Recto.
Ford publicity spokesman Will Townsend says, "our cars are sexy, you don't have to be an explorer on an expedition to see that and you don't have to be a ranger or an escort at the Mustang ranch to own a sexy car. We know you're a bronco, skip the excursion and be the first on your block to lay down your deposit on a Thermoma Recto. This car speaks for itself, and it does it with easy financing options."
But what exactly does it say to drive a thusly dubbed automobile? Perhaps you know what kind of person drives a Spider, Midget or Harley Davidson's Fat Boy or Soft Tail, but how far are you willing to drive your label?
Not to be outdone by their American counterparts, Hyundai has suggested their premium sports coupe, the Tiberon, will be renamed the Porta Felatio for 2008. Also, the successor to the Hummer H2 will not be the H3, but the Big Jump model, the Hummer BJ. The Eddie Bauer edition will be replaced by one designed by composer George Clinton, to be marketed as the Clinton Hummer edition.
Wall street reacted favorably with Ford Motor shares trading in positive integers for the first time in almost two years.
