thats the thing…when u hook the DMV computer up to the car it says verifying make and model car…i dunno if it actually does that thing…so it s possible that any make of the same year could possilby be used…who knows…it could just scan for FORD/LINCOLN/MERCURY ecus and thats it…or maybe it can actually determine the type car…its all big BS…cause technically all the registration would say is Ford Sedan or Ford Coupe of Ford Suburban (for SUVs)
