So should I spring for the GT3 Touring instead?

This. Amazon operated in the red for years. They’re doing pretty well nowadays.

And im not defending Ford, I have a neutral opinion of the brand. I am merely commenting on the engineering/analysis that goes into making the most boring of parts

F-150 switch gear get abused day-in and day-out on millions of units. They definitively know the switches hold up to use.

The GT is not a “small” car.

Proven reliability > Unproven beauty

How many farmers have you seen missing digits? All that time spend standing next to dangerous machinery eventually you’re gonna say “I wonder what would happen if I…”

If you don’t want to recline, you buy a bulkhead seat. Otherwise, gently recline and carry on. You paid for it.

Same here. I’ve never had any issues, and I plan accordingly to minimize the headache: I wear athletic shorts to eliminate the need for a belt, and slip-on Vans to avoid laces, and the body scanner doesn’t bother me.

But why blame that guy? Why not blame the airline who packed you in like sardines and still saw fit to give that guy a way to make you mad? The other guy is just trying to get to his destination in peace and relative comfort, the airline is the one making bank off of both of you.

I’ve never had a real problem at the airport. And even if I do, the people at the TSA are just doing their job. The body scanner doesn’t bother me, taking off shoes, etc doesn’t bother me. In my head I’d rather be safe than sorry. I never get why people complain so much. I’ve been pulled out of a line and scanned…

The way I see it, you’re hurtling through the air at high altitude with at least dozens of other people in a pressurized metal tube partially filled with jet fuel. In a country that not an insignificant number of people would like to see burned to the ground. I’d rather they make things a little inconvenient for us…

When you buy a ticket to sit in an airplane seat that reclines, you have bought the privilege to recline. If you want people to stop reclining, don’t call the people who recline monsters, call the airlines that simultaneously give you very little space and the ability to recline monsters.

9: Don’t force a conversation with the person next to you if they are trying to ignore you and everyone else.

Don’t get TSA PreCheck. If everyone gets it, you’ll ruin it for the rest of us.

This is how GOOD COPS/ REAL COPS conduct business.

He didn’t say Obama... He just said “The President”

Can we lump them in with every muscle car and bro-truck owner who think their loud exhaust is great too?

They should just transition to an all-trike lineup to really cater to their target audience. Old guy “rebels” with obese-guy knee problems who threaten to “kick ass” but get winded walking from the armchair to the fridge.

Cheap for an entry level lux crossover. Every thing is relative.
