Road and Track made some statements in their article while lacking the facts to support those statements. Sure, every car could be stolen. But the fact that someone has a lien on that car does not mean that it is stolen. It does mean that someone with a secured interest believes that they are still owed money- a…

One should learn what “jumped the shark” means before using the phrase.

This seems like it should only surprise people who believe that everyone needs a new car every 2 years (auto journalists?). Let’s say the car averages 40 MPH over those 130k miles- 3,200 hours is not a lot of hours for a modern engine that has had basic maintenance. And automobile engines rarely perform at a 100% duty…

But the airbox mod totally gives it extra power and better milage!

It appears as though the passenger quarter has been repainted. If so, this car is not as “original” as the article suggests. Plus. have you driven an SL?A 72 F250 with the Dana 60 front, a snowplow, and a bed filled with suitcase weights is more responsive and engaging. The SLs were slow, dumpy, and handled like crap.…

“Ford’s Power Stroke engines used to be made by International, but the company has abandon that relationship to build the Super Duty’s diesel engine in-house for this generation of the truck.”

Ford’s press photo with the white single cab truck is priceless. Guess how that load of lumber will shift when the driver applies the brakes: Forward through the rear window. And no, the factory tie-downs would be useless in that application. Yeah Ford!

"…but with the cargo removed you can see the wear and tear easily, and no rust!"

Yep, you are 100% correct. Remember the early japanese cars? They missed the mark at first as well. And the truck buyer tends to be a lot more brand loyal. The first Tundra version was expensive and missed the mark. But if you consider the discounts relied upon by GM and Ford to move units, I suspect that the average…

"As the only commercial truck company building engines and bodies,.."

Judging by the difference in wear, the tailgate has obviously been replaced once already and the trim on the top of the tailgate has failed at least once.

Yeah, 'cause they use baby gen-sets and paint rollers to build hydro dams. Nice try Ford PR. -Michael

Yeah, bullshit. Ask anyone who bought a 2003.5 or 2004 6.0 Superduty. -Mike

I see your point, but I disagree. Overpriced does not = shitty. Overpriced = overpriced. Shitty = Bad design, crap engineering and poor build quality. The BMW 3 series is overpriced. The Chevrolet Cruz is shitty. The 2015 GMC Duramax trucks are overpriced. The 1993 GMC 6.5 liter diesel trucks are shitty.

Nice job! But I am also with RMSS. I believe that you are too harsh on the ELR/Volt. It was a brave risk and it may be priced too aggressively. But you really should drive one before you pile on. During conversations with owners, I do not get the impression that it is, as you say, "a pretty shitty product." Such a…

Should have been a sub brand. Take mini (because it's retro attraction has pretty much faded) and stick this thing in that brochure and call it day. Then there would be BMW and whatever this crap is "made by BMW." Perhaps you could stick the weaker X variants under that brand as well- then BMW could refine itself as…

If you want to do almost anything serious on your truck, you have to start be removing the entire cab from the frame. Yep. That's step one.

We test 560HP car in nation's most densely populated metro area, finds that we are unable to actually test car. But we make the discovery that it does 75 MPH and then stops when brakes are applied. We conclude that "it is worth it" based upon not testing the car at all.

Nice! I always thought they did a good job on the sheet metal design of the outgoing HD except for that panel. Good to here that it is gone. Now to get the DEF tank tucked away somewhere better… -Michael

I think what you meant to say was: "Wow, I can't believe how well that thing accelerates from 120 to 160. That is amazing! And is it really as stable at speed as it appears? Thanks for posting that video. I'm really glad those cars stayed out of your way because if they had randomly changed lanes, that would have…
