Motherfucker PLEASE.

I think I shall have to revise my previous opinion of you good sir :) Shall also buy this book...

This guy is just trolling for fun. Either that, or he didn’t read literally the first sentence of your article. Anyway, fuck that guy. And thanks for these articles! I appreciate that you incorporate some nuance in your posts.

That's the way to do it! When a reader expresses disagreement, just tell him to fuck off! Seriously, no snark I respect this. I disagreed (not disrespectfully) with someone and got greyed and deleted... Would have much rather been told off. Any chance you could help with the greyed thing?

What’s the range with those lights on?

poked holes? where? what do you mean?

495,000 on my 2000 Econoline dually van (E450 running gear all around) with the V10. Bought it from Enterprise with 105,000 miles. It was a plain white van when I bought it, got dualliefied a year after I bought it (after chewing through too many rear tires). Then got it’s extreme makeover around 250k when I realized

*cough* money laundering *cough*

I always have a shovel in the back, among other things. I like to be able to get it without climbing into the bed. I can do this on my 90 F150, can’t even reach the bed floor on my 2017. So basically the new truck is just executive transport. If I’m doing dirty work I’m always in the old standby. Yes, they are too

The best part is how absolutely useless they are for hauling anything in the beds. With those over-sized cabins eating into the bed as manufacturers try to position them for family comfort. I was buying lumber the other day, shoving a bunch of lumber into the back of my Forester, just some six and 8ft boards and all

Car purchases are rarely logical. The American road trip is a romanticized concept. Whether people actually take them or not, it’ll be hard for some to imagine buying a car that isn’t at least capable of road tripping without long delays for charging.

The thing about the tax credit is it doesn’t do much for a truly mass-market vehicle. If this sells at Tesla Model Y numbers, Ford will enter the phaseout period for their credits very quickly, because they’ve already dropped over half of them on C-Max, Fusion, and Aviator PHEVs and the could-have-been-amazing Focus

As I understand it, that button selects a mode that uses the electric motor’s regenerative brake capability to simulate a low gear on a conventional car with a multispeed transmission.

“Works” is a strong word here.

I think the real story is that David Hasselhoff sat in the stunt driver’s lap, if only briefly.

I wasn’t really sure what to make of this one, so I asked the webbernets.

Yikes. I’m sorry, but I’m seeing nothing but design flaws and laziness. I guess they’re aiming for a cheaper market, but $36,000 as equipped is not a cheap car.

1991- 2001 Explorer models are considered “first generation”. The 1995 remodel was only cosmetic. At that time, Ford rounded out the fenders, changed the headlights and grille, and reconfigured the instument panel. It wasn’t until 2002 when Ford completely remodeled the Explorer.

Winter air is cold. Cold air holds less moisture than the warm air inside the air. When you heat up the cold air from outside, the relative humidity drops.

Not gonna lie, I read the first half in David Attenborough’s voice.
