send them on their way with an Ecoboost Maverick reaching to the high-$20K range.

Ford dealers will have a special place for Maverick Hybrids right near the base model F-150s.

I want the hybrid but AWD. Ford seems to be making several mistakes here and the car’s not even out yet.

Ford seems to have made some marketing errors in not allowing the hybrid powertrain to be used in AWD setups. Either that or they’re not actually trying to sell the hybrids (Escape, Maverick).

My cousin had a Festiva. Know what happens if you get a tiny car for a teen? Other teens move it.

Gotta hit those fuel economy standards somehow!

I think Erik accidentally copy/pasted something from Tracy’s porn folder into the article.

“Her hair was the color of rust. She was tall as though someone installed an aftermarket lift kit. Her walk had a smooth glide like the shifting of gears on a manual transmission. She was the Holy Grail.”

“I never thought this would happen to me…”

That last paragraph sounds like an excerpt from a David Tracy erotic novel.

I saw some youngsters in a first-generation Jeep Grand Cherokee driving in my neighborhood yesterday morning. One of them was asleep in the front seat, another one was in the back jamming with the music. The driver was a no-nonsense young lady who was shirtless. Written on the car’s windows was its price: $1,000,…

Neutral: “non-nonsense young lady who was shirtless”

I’m a Chicagoan, my grandfather was a milkman and I’ve worked on many dairy clients’ campaigns over the years - here in the midwest especially, dairy is in everything and it’s big business. It makes sense too, because we’re mammals, healthy infants drink mother’s milk, there are substances in dairy we’re hardwired to…

You’re not wrong. There’s no legitimate reason to give any child “milk” or a “milk alternative”. One of my kids is highly allergic to a laundry list of many of the same things listed by the author - milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, etc, so I’m speaking from experience here.

There’s a want for your child to be able to…

Good question. Thanks for taking the time to comment. A lot of people just cut dairy and are fine. My son started having issues when he was a baby so this was part of combination of things. If my son only had issues with dairy, it wouldn’t have been a big deal. But it was reactions to everything else that complicated…

I never buy milk or use it. My friend next door makes masala chai pretty frequently and occasionally she’ll be out of milk and ask me just in case I’ve bought some for some reason, and I have to apologize that I still don’t have any. I’m not even allergic, I just don’t like it. 

I don’t get it either. The appropriate milk alternative in this situation is water. 

I think she actually has a hard legal case if there is a force majeure clause, which most contracts do and as a former big corporate attorney I would be shocked if there isn’t one. A force majeure clause allows a party to opt out of portions of contract based on unavoidable and uncontrollable circumstances. So to win,…

I cannot get over just the sheer audacity of the Disney response. Not just that this multi-billion dollar company is invoking the pandemic tragedy as justification to seemingly breach their contract with Johansson, but then they claim that somehow Disney+ has enhanced her capability of earning additional…

Stupid question, legit not snark or shaming really want to know: Why do people need milk and milk alternatives. My kid and I are “lactose intolerant” and mike give us stomach aches and other GI issues. We literally never have it in the house, we do not cook with it, we never eat cereal, we have tried some nut milks…
