Love those big hulking things. Love ‘em love ‘em love ‘em.”

Man, there’s a lot you are just not considering insofar as the truck market, but this argument has been beaten to death for the last decade on this fuckin’ website, so I’ll keep it short:

I enjoyed this trailer, when does the movie come out?

Nobody actually wants a simple, cheap truck, even though folks around here act like that’s all that anyone wants. Nissan sells a bare-bones, RWD, extended-cab Frontier for <$20k; how many do they actually sell to individuals? Ten?

I daily drive a crew cab 1/2 ton from one big three at any given time and I have zero issues parking it at the grocery store or anywhere else. I’m no master wheel man and I’ve been driving 1/2 tons to 1 tons and land yachts since my teens but I can parallel park my truck in one shot with a screaming baby in the back

The thing with EcoBoosts is you can have “Eco”, and you can have “Boost”. You just can’t have them both at the same time.

Corrosion in aluminum ends the same as rusting in steel.

Can we please stop using this clearly inaccurate artist’s rendition of what will certainly not be the new bronco?  Just stop.  It is spreading misinformation to everyone.  The number of arguments I have a week with people about how inaccurate that rendering is is getting out of hand.  Stop perpetuating the cycle of

No, that is a (very popular) fan made rendering that everyone wishes the Bronco will look like but will ultimately lead to disappointment when the final product looks nothing like what fans have hyped up in their head.

Please can we stop using that fan-made bronco render without disclaimers? It’s just going to end in disappointment when people actually see the new bronco and it looks more like a jeep than an F-150.

Any entry level Jeep, i.e. Compass & Liberty;

america works just like a car... you put it in (D) to go forward and (R) to go backwards...

I managed a large government fleet of Ford GM and Ram trucks, roughly 1000 trucks midsize to 1ton. The Fords and GMs had the same long term repair costs even factoring in we had a large amount of 6.0s and 5.4s which were panned as being in reliable. The GMs would nickel and dine you with many small repairs while the

The FI’d V6 makes far more torque down low than the 5.0, so the V8 would be the one revving its balls off.

Please come to Portland and buy a $55,000 Expedition from my dealership that has a flip-phone screen and no BLIS. Nobody else is gonna. We can’t keep the $70k+ Limiteds and Platinums in stock tho. You may not need the parking sensors and 360 degree cameras, and getting your ass massaged while cold air blows up your

Very few people, including most jalopnik.com writers and readers, buy the vehicle they need. They buy the vehicle they want to and can (sometimes) afford. Nobody needs a BMW, Tesla, sports car, Jeep, roadster or any other car any of us would like to own. They all need a camry or a Grand Caravan. Or really just a bus

I sell Fords. I try to explain to customers that the new Ranger will disappoint. How can a mid-size rig be even $5k cheaper than a full-size truck? Other than 500 pounds less metal how is the manufacturing cost significantly less? The Ranger will have the same 10 speed transmission, the same electronics, airbags,

“Hey honey, gotta work on the car today. This should only take me an hour or so, and I’ve got everything I need already.”
