Hey remember that time Ford stopped calling it’s Electric Mustang hybrid crossover concept “lightning” because that nameplate has a pretty solid history of being attached to a performance truck?

And 9/10 times youd probably be correct

Im happy I saw this. I'm making a Ute out of a crown Vic as soon as I find a suitable donor in my price range. Added benefit of being body on frame and using the modular V8 I can swap whatever Ford power plant from the last 20 years in there 

Im well aware of the risks. Never said it was smart, just said that in the past I have

Why are people perpetuating this myth? I've driven nothing but manual cars my entire life and I can easily text and drive. I usually don't but I definitely have. It's not hard

Dont cherry pick the models, the Altima, Maxima, versa, juke (RIP), and now the kicks are all riding on new platforms. The Titan got an update two years back.

Then how is he gonna send Snapchats and post to the gram?

The more rational argument isn’t “all technology bad” but more “is this absolutely necessary or are we adding complexity and cost for minimal gains”.

And pushing it freaking sucks because of how heavy it is. It will have to be pushed 

Now what if this network gets hacked and the bad actors can turn the car off or control the steering?

Right you are!

Good luck getting that old AOD to pop with the stock power output a 4.6 has. 

Throw an LS T56 combo at it and it's seriously fun

The best part about that car is it looks to be sitting on gt500 reps. Car looks great though

Good Lord I need something that rowdy in my life

There’s just something about a buttery smooth hive of pissed off hornets winding up to 10,000+rpm that just does it for me.

Until this article came out I seriously forgot these existed

I am glad you like your car. It would suck to have to live with something you hate

But if you can find a 530i, oh my....

Most of the hate is unwarranted really. Quality in the long term remains to be seen and even though I have no interest in ever owning one I don’t see them as bad cars.
