They should automate the seatbelt and have sensors that will not let the car start if all occupants are not properly restrained this will be Easter from a technology stand point. According to the CDC 1/2 of all fatalities involving automobiles are unrestrained occupants. Always wearing a seatbelt and encouraging…

Mine while original is going to be different than most other people’s as I like boxy 4x4 large vehicles.

Seriously this is trash

some people still buy them mostly fleets Ford tried to bring back the Single cab sport luxury truck with the tremor in 2014 but it sold poorly as people still wanted crew cabs.Car seat regulations and seatbelt laws are big factors. Growing up I used to see people riding in beds of pickups you don’t see that anymore as…

Thats why I own one, ski trips , take family and Dogs places, camping ,home depot commuting, airport runs, mountain biking, it does it all.  

I think this is why so many wealthy Americans are buying luxury pickups. The drive trains are durable and easy to work on with parts an abundance and they can be optioned with massaging seats, panoramic moon roofs lane keeping and adaptive cruise control etc. why buy an expensive less practical less reliable worse…

Even the F-150 had an optional trim package with Alcantara seats from 2013 through 2017 then went to full leather for the 2018. My brother has it in his 2014 and I think it’s really nice but Ford must have figured the higher cost was not something the customer would pay.

For me and many otherfull size pick up owners the reason we choose say the F-150 over the SUVs and the Ridgeline or Tacoma comes down to 1. Price SUVs cost more than the equivalent pickup truck. Even though I rather have an SUV the cost of the expedition or Suburban with the same features is $20-30k combined with lack…

I think that VW should just partner with a company already here to produce some trucks with their badge on them.

I never understood why when gas spikes that people suddenly cannot afford to drive an SUV or truck perfecting to take a bath on it and trade it in at a steep loss. I commute 80 miles a day 5 days a week to work. With other driving I do that comes to roughly 400 miles a week, 1600 a Month in a 5.0 F150 averaging 17…

I think Ford will leave loose the most if the standards are repealed as they have a lot of global models. The Fusion/mondeo, focus, fiesta, escape/kuga, Ranger, eco sport, Mustang, Transit, Transit connect, Edge, and c-max are sold overseas. GM products not so much anymore. FCA not many Hellcats in Europe or Asia.…

20” is not that impressive. Needs closer to 30”.Or a Range Rover’s 35”

I’d say my family is not brand loyal in the way many are. We but particular vehicles from specific generations. We love the GMT -400 Suburbans of the 90s we have owned 3 and like them better than the new one so much so that my mom bought one of Craigslist after one that we bought new hit an elk. My brother and I both…

I never got the only buy one brand thing. When I graduated college in 2010 my family had 2 Chevys, a Ford and a VW. Today we have 7 Fords, 3 Chevys, 3 VWs, 1 Toyota. I have keys on me to 2 of the Ford’s and a Chevy.

If you look behind the safety driver you can see the rope lights on the bridge. So they are there if you watch the video I posted around the 42 second mark is where the accident happened it’s got enough lighting to see a pedestrian crossing 3 lanes going from left to right.

Lighting wasn’t the issue.

It really isn’t that dark for humans. Here is the approach to the accident area through the accident area.

Here is the lead up to and the area that the Uber struck the lady

Here is a night time video of the same road shot with a different cam.

I don’t even use dumb cruises control people need to learn Pedal control.
