Enough with these damn tablets on the dash already, I don’t know why manufacturers are so eager to emulate the tacked on dashboard that was arguably the worst feature of every non-Pontiac G-body.

Thanks for the link to that old magazine,kind of interesting reading about these newfangled Hanna-Barberra catoons,the Colt Combat Rifle that would eventually become the M16, Firestone’s experiments with super singles back in 1960.

Here’s an idea for an episode of Black Mirror, rich people can pay ‘selection insurance” to be placed higher on a list of people who will be the highest priority to live in an accident where death is unavoidable, with the richest being able to afford top tier “insurance” with virtually zero chance of ever being

Jason Kenney is a loudmouthed out of touch hack who only got a federal cabinet position because he mindlessly kissed Stephen Harper’s ass for a decade, and when he threw his hat into the ring for the CPC leadership he still lost to Andrew Scheer, a man with less personality than a paper bag filled with shredded wheat,

Nice price on a blue GTO

which the company said could cause some Jeeps to “crash without prior warning.”

Yeah you’re that snob, you dropped $50K on an oversized Tonka toy it doesn’t make you so special you’re entitled to a brand new vehicle when there’s a problem that can be easily fixed, I’ve seen weld defects in a seed drill frame holding up a 15,000 lb wing section repaired perfectly by a journeyman welder (actually jo

A truck like that can only be found in 2 places, Florida or Calgary, Calgary really is just Canada’s Florida.

Where in Canada are you from?

At that point it might just be easier to build a smaller version of a countershaft type powershift, that uses a hydraulic input shaft clutch and secondary cutch packs on each gear instead of a synchro, or make it like John Deere’s 16 speed which uses the clutch pedal to disengage the selected output shaft gear clutch,

I let Google spy on me because I;m pretty sure that algorithm’s existence is pure miery.

I still believe that the NHTSA should require all vehicles to be equipped with mechanical interior door release handles and electric door handles should be limited to exterior use only with a mechanical backup in a DOT mandated standard location so firefighters know exactly where to look for it in an accident.

Does your plan involve making service manuals, parts and manufacturer specific tools available to customers and tuning shops because if so I’m in.

So exactly how fucked does Ford need to get before they fire Jim Hackett’s worthless ass?

I would buy a Dodge Aries and park it right out in front of FCA’s office with a sign saying “Lee Iacocca saved Chrysler with this car, STOP FUCKING IT UP!!!

The important question here is gearing, the F-150 is available 3.31, 3.55 or 3.75 gears, the Jeeto must have a lot of gear reduction to handle a 1,542lb load with an engine that makes 16hp and 28 lb-ft of torque.

It has a pretty strong resemblance to it’s Mustang siblings.

I kind of want Ford to build a new electric powered Econoline with the gen-1's cabover design.

I think the legal term for FCA’s situation here is “we’re boned.”

You forgot GMC, if they can only build one truck they should get out of the light truck market and bring back the General.
