Ford shouldn’t monopolize C&C carnage (C, C &C?). Other makes should get in on the action. Competition breeds excellence!

Neutral; Keeping my Expedition because Ford told me the Ecoboost engine is economical. Prolly gets the same mileage as a Fit. It’s right in the name; Duh!!!

Why choose? Taz floor mats AND Yosemite Sam mud flaps! Add gecko seat covers for the white trash trifecta!

It MIGHT decimate unsuspecting folks at stoplights, or it might grenade the differential; delighting unsuspecting spectators at stoplights.

Star for slippery eel on WD40 analogy. That’s a new one on me but imma use it.

That engine bay is making my OCD hurt. And even with the bonnet closed; Automatic? LT1? Chrome autozone fender flares? $3,200 is super-cheap for one of these yet I still wouldn’t buy this one. CP.

Such a good option for a daily driver!

I was (maybe mistakenly) assuming it would sound very similar and have the accompanying odd vibrations.

Well, TBH I am making an assumption that’s it sounds like a VW 2.5 or an old Audi 5000. If it does in fact have a pleasingly-raucous exhaust note and a lack of the NVH that the older 5 bangers were notorious for, then I retract my ignorance-influenced statement.

CP! Swedes are socialist pigs!

That’s more like it!

Fourth Gear; Ford isn’t doing anything with Lincoln. They should just hand it, and McConaughey’s contract to Geely and see how the brand does without the Ford family’s meddling incompetence

96 month loans? OMG! I CAN afford a Hellcat!

I also find the note of a Dodge Viper to be offensive, and I don’t like the Fiat 500. Maybe I’m just an anti-quintite

Being legally forced to allow a pump jockey to molest your vehicle is one step down from “valet-only” establishments, which I will not patronize

I was unaware of the jug handle turn but it actually sounds brilliant. I now officially like 1 thing about NJ.

Providing points and counterpoints within your post and showing an entire and rational thought process. Star for you although you are doing the internet wrong. Misinformed, high-volume opinions are the norm here; FYI.

“. . . Early 2000s Chevy plastic dash.” Savage insults being hurled early today!

Although the use of an audibly toxic 5-cylinder is unfortunate, I like everything else about this. Fill the hatch with speakers to drown out droning engine! NP.
