It’s never going to happen. 

I think there’s some element of that. There was a lot of “angry white guy with a gun” rhetoric early on, but it ended up being a Syrian immigrant.

nvm 

The boulder shooting is very similar. It’s already off the news. I think sometimes “he was crazy” really is the answer.

Eh, it could be personal preference too. I’m not involving police if the only casualty was damage to a car I didn’t own. 

I have a rubicon express 4.5 inch short arm lift on my XJ. I have a heavier bumper and winch and the front rides OK, but the back is VERY stiff. If I had it to do over again I would do shorter leaves and relocation brackets.

Correct me if I am wrong, but he went off the road on the far side of the road, right? That’s pretty hard to do unless you’re hauling ass or impaired.

Certainly a risk, but we live over 1000 miles away so I’m comfortable with being a good sport now and again.

Same with us. We settled on a cake which was corny, but goddamnit my parents put up with me as a teenager, so I didn’t think it was too much to ask for, lol.

Most people do something. So long as you don’t involve explosives and firearms, typically they are fine.

This was my take. Nothing inherently dangerous there, the pilot just made an error that unfortunately cost lives.

Wife’s family insisted on a gender reveal (1st grand child and her mom is VERY present on social media).

I look forward to getting stuck behind one of these on a trail in Colorado. A lifted Subaru trying to do a 4x4 trail will almost never move over for faster vehicles. Otherwise, it’s kind of neat. There’s lots of lifted Crosstreks in Denver, too.

I’ve done Black Bear pass. It’s terrifying because it is narrow and on a shelf road, but it’s really an easy trail from a technical standpoint. 

My car payment on my ‘19 F-150 is almost $400/mo.

A ford transit is smaller and will have a lot more cargo capacity and probably payload. I just don’t see the value this car provides as a fleet vehicle.

With regards to fleets, are you sure? Ford already offers the transit, ranger, and f-150 for light/medium/heavy duty. The maverick slots in there, but only for companies that need to carry four people regularly but also have something large / dirty that needs to be in a truck bed but also light enough to not exceed…

I mean that people will come to a ford dealership to buy a Ranger and will get sold into a Maverick. I don’t think many people will come to a ford dealership because they want a Maverick.

This seems like it will take sales from the Ranger.

It’s a pathetic punishment that did not occur in a timely manner. That’s my point. I don’t believe it will affect his future behavior.
