The Ford ... Sinus?

What were they thinking when they named this thing? And what's next -- the Lincoln Tonsil?

I knew they spelled it that way, but how else ya' going to pronounce it?
And of course every mechanical problem would get called a SYNus headache.

Maybe it IS pronounced sin-us since SYN is short for synthesis. Whatever, it scares me.
