People have jobs, school, and limited vacation time. As enjoyable as a leisurely road trip can be, it isn’t always realistic. Sometimes getting from point A to B as quickly as possible is the only option.  

I have one word for you "microplastics". The overwhelming majority of leather substitutes are petrochemical based. There is one niche product based on mushrooms but it's very rare. Personally I think wool needs to make comeback. 

There’s an Audi A4 I see in my neighborhood every now and then whose driver has stuck an RS4 badge on the grille.

Pretty much most aftermarket mods, when I worked in bankruptcy would have clients moaning about the 25000 they put into their trucks and being amazed that the value would not go up at all, lift kits snorkels big ass tires tunes, nope at auction they went the same as unmodified trucks, told a few of them that if they…

Is that true?  I saw somewhere that EVs had the biggest depreciation hit. 

Awe what's got you all triggered cupcake?

Probably shouldn’t buy a diesel if they can’t afford to maintain them.

My dad was a Ford dealer for over 33 years. “Accident” my a**

“The dealer claims that when the truck came in, instead of being placed in special orders, the Maverick was placed in its regular dealer stock which is why it was sold.”

Counterpoint: I’m on my second BEV, and looking for my third. I will not consider a Tesla because of Musk. Not giving my hard earned money to that sorry excuse for a human being. I’d rather give it to a faceless corporation.

That’s the thing. Car makers never made a bunch of money on those cheapo cars, so they stopped making them; simple as. They’re under no public obligation to make sure everyone can afford a car, so they go for more profit, what with being for-profit companies. That’s why it’s so important to have viable, public…

In completely unrelated news...

When Musk has been dead as many decades as Ford, then we can start separating him from the brand identity. The only part of Henry in the company today is the squiggle of a signature in the blue oval. Musk is still elbow deep in Tesla, and still actively causing real world harm. Give him a few decades of being dead,…

But back in 84 he could throw the pigskin a quarter mile

This has Uncle Rico with a dash of serial killer vibes.

I went NP, I would probably peel the stripes or go with a different color for them. Only 1 clarification I can see for the article Rob, those wheels are not aftermarket. They are OEM 18" Viper wheels powder coated black, just from a gen 2 (1997-2002) instead of the 1st gen. There are a lot better selection of 18"…

I had no idea either of these existed. I don’t think I’ve ever seen one. Did Ford neglect to do any real advertising, and that’s why no one went for the NBX SUVs?

Are you seriously arguing that hybrid- probably plug-in hybrid, because that’s where the market is finding traction- ethenol-fueled cars that cost half what an EV costs are in some way a BAD thing?

I remember when unpainted plastic bumpers were the sign you bought the stripped model almost nobody else was too cheap to buy, but now it’s a design feature.

This article is phrased so negatively... so there’s a country that’s already using an alternative fuel that’s more emissions-friendly than gasoline, why are you mad at them for not wanting to go all-in on EV’s? How much is Tesla paying y’all?
