They have gone gone full Ford Heavy Duty.

Forget the arms, race, the HP race, the torque race. We have entered the who-has-the-biggest-headlamps race.

I’m surprised you have not covered the new Ram and Jeep turn signals and stop light set up.

They are LED, stop is red and turn signal is amber (Good) but when you have the turn signal on, the stop light is completely replaced on that side of the car and becomes an orange blinking light on that side of the car, as if

So, how long until Land Rover sues them for copyright infringement?

A friend has one in Canada, got to drive it, fantastic car!

Not all! and there’s a reason for those.

Every time I see a new Toyota, I wonder if they can make an even uglier car, and hold and behold, the new model is even uglier!
