Although I miss the buttons, it's a nice interior. The weird thing is that it's inspiring some strange 80s automotive nostalgia and I can't figure out why. Maybe it's the color they've chosen for the leather.

That dash design looks like it's straight out of 1986

Or you know... Cobra? Given the Ford-Cobra lineage I'd say that Viper was the furthest thing from Ford's mind.

no.

Should have done a complete redesign. Wait, scratch that, make the Everest into the Explorer!

That's going to be a SEPARATE (I know, sigh) post. Fellow author Wes Siler was along for that, and we're going to do a bit of a "he says/he says" breakdown comparison.

and here it is. What trails did you end up doing while you were out there? Also, I'm not sure if you told us if you liked it better than the taco or not?

To be fair, Ford was making cars before BMW was using slave labor to build munitions and planes...this industry has ups and downs, nothing lasts forever.

I read that as "Why are you crossing in front of an obviously faster-moving car". The green car could have been a little more aware. The F1 car's line out of the corner would be well-telegraphed. The green car - potentially - should have stayed left until the F1 car cleared him.

Ayrton Senna showing you how to drive Suzuka in a Honda NSX-R is best "instructional" video.

This is winning all over the place.

....sometimes you like to carry things that you don't want exposed to the elements. And sometimes you don't....

Henry Ford biopic. Brilliant visionary engineer who puts the world on wheels and kickstarts the industrial revolution that powers America for 100 years.

Ferrari getting it's ass kicked. Pick your example, but I'm partial to Ford getting pissed at Ferrari, the GT40 going 1-2-3, then Ford dropping the mic and walking away.

At this point, it's a "we've sunk too much money into it, no going back now" deal. In fact, it's been that way for quite some time.

That is very cool. Thank you for sharing. People/comments like this are what make Jalopnik so special.

Two unreliable cars, one being collectible the other disposable are perhaps not the best example.

But it's an automatic.
