Well, the guy in charge of engineering is from Apple. The guy in charge of production, who works for him, is from Audi.

Or from a company that actually manufactures stuff, I mean, Tesla isn’t just outsourcing everything to Foxconn.

The guy in charge of car production is from Apple? Not making deadlines? Why not hire a guy with auto experience? lolz.

You seem upset. Do you need to tock about it?

This is how Apple makes itself relevant again

Not really. All the other companies have no problem releasing new models.

Did they bring a blown head gasket too?

Oh look, this is the vehicle that is going to save Lincoln. NBD.

When they first launched Android, they chose HTC. They have to go with the more desperate companies because they’re they ones who’ll play ball.

This is ridiculously easy to prove. All Krafcik has to do is step out in front of a Waymo at night and post the video footage.

I think you are vastly overestimating that stigma. I really doubt most car buyers could tell you (correctly at least) whether their car is FWD or RWD. They might know if it is AWD.

Had Lincoln gone with more of the design cues from the concept, I think it’d be selling a lot better. The overall look is SO generic and watered down that it screams MEH very loudly to me, and I like Lincoln. I want the Conti to do well. Sat in one a few weeks ago and it is, no kidding, pretty luxe. Suicide doors…

The name origin is because they prevented road deaths and suicides. Before suicide doors, a typical Lincoln looked like this. No doors:

Having owned extended cab pickups and experiencing the Element clamshells, I can say with absolute authority that ingress and egress in parking lots sucks ass. It’s a cool design feature, but an absolute trainwreck of function following form

I hope they succeed... but don’t really expect it.

Bring back the Moke.

This one accident is providing way too much content. I’m already bored.

If nothing more, this is a NP for a “first car” for your adventurous 16 year old. It’ll teach him/her patience (he/she will always be waiting on a tow truck) and the value of money (he/she will always be working to pay for repairs), and how to be comfortable outside (he/she should be encouraged to go wheeling).

OP said she’s pregnant, which is temporary and if it make’s the mom-to-be happy/healthy/less stressed/comfortable and can afford it; money well spent.

Oh, yeah, completely different. That generation was awful. Apparently enough so that I forgot they existed entirely and just assumed you meant a newer one.
