Yeah, i thought of the sport-trac as well but i think the world has changed since then. Not sure its an apples ot apples comparison. Basically, the Maverick is Fords econobox car replacing the fiesta/focus w/a form factor that Americans love.

Forever and always: ACAB

The reason why i love wagons and own an Outback is probably partly because its obviously efficient form factor in terms of loading in ingress/egress and also my Dad is off the boat from Italy and we always had some pos Fiat hatch or smoething like that in the house. When those dumb cars were actually working they were…

I live in an area that is full of MTB stuff and even ppl with full size beds carry their bikes over their gate like that. I almost literally never see bikes just in the bed, only. They are over the gate or on a roof or hitch rack. 

Yeah, thats an interesting hypothetical but i would reply that group think is jsut as prevalent amongst SD/HD truck guys (almost always guys) as it is amongst journo’s who express a preference for ride comfort.

Im sorry..really not trying to troll you i swear but asking why ride comfort should carry such weight is really quite a take.

id reply to your reply about always having drywall but i literally cant find it. Also, your comment here about payload is, i think, correct and useful. 

lol, amazing. Fucking technology. Again, my notifications are working great on this specific post which tells me ppl/kinja are just fucking w/us. 

also, bright yellow, imo

Whats funny is that this is the first time in a week that my notifications are working correctly and only for this post! 

hybrid AWD has to be coming, id assume? Ford has the capability in their parts bin for sure. 

Is kinja being kinja for anyone else? When i go to notifications and click on a reply to me it just sort of plops me down into the middle of the comments and sometimes i cant even see the comment at all even if i click through all of them? 

If drywall/plywood is that big a part of your life you already own a fullsize or a work van so this is just a strawman. 

ah, the billionaire defenders have logged on quickly i see. Very good. Very good. 

Harsh but likely fair. 

Damn, this is nice! The hybrid is a nice econobox with a bed. Sort of reminds me of a modern Explorer Sport-trac from years back.

Hes a league average republican whose father was an outright racist. Hes also a fan of Ayn Rand, which tells you all you need to know.

this is pure vaporware/scam. Just look at the laughably bad animation of the plane on their site. 

we are not in real trouble. As i mentioned htere are asset classes that are seeing real inflation but, again, we arent remotely close to full employment or full output. 

i disagree but we will see i guess.
