I’m as much of a “eat the rich” person as the next guy, but your statement is absolutely not universally true. Steven Spielberg owned a $160M yacht until last year. He didn’t do anything wrong to get his money - he just directed some of the most popular movies ever made and got lavishly compensated for it.

This list is AWFUL. Literally a list full of sales kings and game changers, but because some pinecone on here had issues with one of them, they are among the worst things Ford made? I mean, come ON.. this should be Pinto, Edsel, Maverick, Mustang II sort of stuff only.

Admittedly, if I was Toyota I would be concerned about the bZ4X.   Someone needs to catch that damn cat that named it while walking across the keyboard.   It should be the 2nd highest priority at Toyota.  (First is to take away the ugly sticks from the stylists)

Our insistence on using the “market” through tax credits to get where we want to go is so goddamn stupid. Aside from the fact that EVs aren’t going to do much of anything to “solve” climate change, if you want to incentivize their purchase, just cut people a check if they buy one. And oh yeah, don’t give it to rich

For months, Ukraine has been trying to close a bridge. Finally they have done it after several months by using some really expensive military equipment.

Ford identified the root cause of the alleged defect as interference between the valve and piston within the 2.7-liter EcoBoost engines”

Engine testing cannot discover supplier sourced defects. It could be as simple as a missed step in heat-treating a component, it might be a single location in a heat-treat oven doing a batch. If the problem is over a small number of bad parts even random selection inspection won’t find it. Full destructive testing

Even the previous-gen Fusions were pretty damn good, at least after the 2010 facelift. I had one with the V6, and aside from the rev-hang when you let off the throttle at higher RPMs, it was a pretty nice engine. Also the V6 was more reliable than the 4 cylinder (and designed by Porsche), so problems with the later

I just wonder what changes were made before putting the 2.7 in Broncos. I’ve owned two 2.7 F-150's and both have been perfect. Whatever they did messed up that platform.

And he’ll take credit for it going down.

Good God, this is a mess…

Not only that, but the part about the “crystalline substance” only amplifies the “why was this person on an on-ramp at 9PM?” thing. There was plenty of depressing-but-valid reasons why not to pin this on Bowyer, and I still imagine he is crushed by it anyway. 

It’s funny, because if you ask the typical buyer about the fuel economy they’ll say “I didn’t buy it because it’s good on gas” but they’ll be the first in line to complain about gas prices after they fill up and slab their “i DiD tHaT” sticker on the pump.

the cause of the collision is unknown.

It’s their money. Let them spend it how they wish.

Figure 8 train car racing

Turn 10 needs to make sure that this game is actually fun, because that’s largely what’s been missing from the last several Motorsport games. Spending 100 hours grinding career mode isn’t fun. Tight vehicle restrictions for race series isn’t fun.  Homologation racing in a video game isn’t fun.  Trying to emulate Gran

The Explorer in Slide 10 is actually an Expedition.

Sorry in advance for being “That guy”

On the morning of the first day of school every year, a smiley face balloon flies around my area. A few years ago it bounced off the roof of the high school. But other years the students are just distracted watching it out the window
