It’s pitiful. You can get a diesel half-ton truck with a 100 more horsepower getting that same fuel economy.

Wow, I didn’t realize the diesel version “only” gets 27/30...the regular 2.5 NA gasser only gets 2 less combined, and the same highway. Even with $10K off, still doesn’t seem to be worth it. But if you can get the Signature for that price, truly, that seems more like an actual deal.

“People seem to forget that trade schools are...”

The quotes from Christian Meunier doesn’t talk about any of that. He’s not expounding on the benefits in performance of EVs. None of his statements are about instant torque or mechanical simplicity being a boon to off-roading culture. They are all literally lip service to the green energy, save the world from oil, and…

A Tahoe, sure. But not most crossovers which are the most popular SUVs right now are only a few inches taller than your wagon. Smaller women slip in and out of them easily.

Before everyone starts saying that a similar size wagon or hatch has the same space, what you are missing is the vertical space.

Not true. Hyundai engines aren't "cheap".  Pretty well engineered actually.  Sounds like a comment from someone who doesn't work on cars.

Ford is already effed... Evidenced as:
- getting out of the Sedan/Coupe market
- importing and selling the EcoSport
- overpricing the new Explorer (and everything else)
- messing up assembly quality on just about every model, but especially F150s since 2018.
- Using the cheapest possible interiors and components on their…

Yeah, there’s a whole different approach where you don’t “cheap out” on anything, but deliver a solid, foundational product.

Ford can’t escape the horsepower wars. Neither can GM and FCA.

While all the V8 fanboys have been whining about the Mach-E, people with lives outside of the internet have been making reservations. The “First Edition” is already sold out.

This will sell like hotcakes.

First, I’m not a “if it’s not an 8 foot bed it’s not worth it” kind of guy, but that looks like a really short bed. The 5.5' or whatever it is on the Raptor is as small as I can see being useful.

Which usually happens because parts stores no longer carry replacement parts. Yup...that's old.

It becomes an old car when you start making repairs with non-automotive products.  Spackle, tar, Gorilla glue, picture hanging wire, twine, tape, wood screws, etc.

I’m one of the few that likes the Aztek . The very polarizing is one of its best features (who wants to drive around in the same old bland box?) and the view outside from the interior is pretty cool, with all the glass panels. I’ve always thought of getting one and dropping the Grand Prix GTP drivetrain (or better yet…

*Raises hands* I got a race catted catalytic converter in my car. I’m thinking of going catless downpipes. I also got a piggyback tune that runs a bit rich too.

Yeah they look like 2 spare Garmins tacked on

That’s cool and stuff but also the screens look ridiculous. Gotta be a better way to integrate them.

I’m not a huge fan, as I’m one of those folks who think of it as a “set it once and forget it” thing, and thus not worth the money.

Give me a manual recline, manual fore-aft slide, pump-style height adjustment and manual lumbar, and we’re good.

But I agree, it should be an option. I have electric seats in my $800 Jeep…
