I think it's just an admission that no one reads the Owner's Manual...

You could have saved a lot of time with Google Image search. Transit pickup trucks are ubiquitous in Europe.

“Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!” cries she
With silent lips. “Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”

... not enough coffee this morning, deleted.

This made my day!

Weirdly enough, I check yes (grocery store), yes (Harris Teeter, Whole Foods, and Walmart, something for everyone), yes (I like the Chinese takeaway nearby), and yes (¡Vamos Pollo a la Brasa!) to your initial questions. It’s really awesome!

Torch, i was doing a little bit of Wikipedia rabbit hole searching on Ford do Brasil’s offerings when I came across the word “Tropivan”

I love it.  I think this would look boss in the back of your truck dude!

I made the mistake of pulling up to the Truck Diesel high flow pumps when I first got my TDI many years ago. It’s really frustrating that your local station put in a high flow pump.

That’s the issue with bespoke regs. With Holden dead, Nissan almost dead, the vehicle template making the last manufacturer standing’s Mustang look like a cartoon, and the limited national and international revenue potential for the sport, it’s no wonder they are struggling.

I don’t understand why they need bespoke cars for this. There are plenty of homologated regulations and platforms they can adopt (Australian Supercars, TCR, Rallycross, DTM/JGTC, GT3, etc.) that i would think you’d be better off just picking one of those instead. It would help keep costs down and help keep the other…

If this is the market they want to target, I hope they get wise and lean on their technical partner to turn S-classes into Lagondas...

Wouldn't be the first time.  Definitely won't be the last 

Burning shit is bad for the environment anyways...

I like the front end of the Palisade a lot.  Looks pretty sharp to me.

It is a bit of a shame they used “Bronco Sport” instead of an equally nostalgic name from the Bronco back catalogue...

My girlfriend almost bought a Wrangler “because it looked cute,” “because it’s a convertible,” and “because [she] sits high while driving”.

It’s not an F1 race until Seb is pointed the wrong direction on the track...

Give this year’s Santiago eGP a try. An entire season of F1 racing action squeezed into 45 minutes.
