And the E-Transit is 12k over the Transit to start. $4500 premium after the $7500 tax credit. The Lightning will actually end up cheaper in the Pro than the F150 XL with the same cab configuration. So basing fleet sales of electric on the E-Transit fails to consider what fleets could do as the Lightning starts seeing

I have a lease ending in a bit and I don’t think I want to buy it out. I looked at used and new. New takes a bit of effort to get at or below MSRP. Used takes a miracle to find anything priced appropriately. In these topsy-turvy times, new actually might provide the better value.

While I am not in the market for an RV, it is hard to argue with this price. That said, the buyer should be thorough in inspecting it. An RV over 20 years old could have a lot of problems. Sagging floor, tank leaks, bearings, motors, structural damage around the slide-outs. If it’s all good, it’s probably a great deal.

As someone who was recently working with a Ford dealer who offered invoice on a Maverick order (not a big discount, but much better than markups), I might also look at that build sheet and see MSRP, zero discount, total of MSRP and think that was the deal. While my dealer also gave me the whole pricing breakdown,

I have a single vehicle at a time. My forever car would be something versatile and cheap to maintain, with no potential failures that could keep me from getting to work.

Availability still sucks on the VW. Not all the available trims/options have been released, and even those that have are few and far between.

I think the idea is that you would camp for multiple days, charging up for a 370 mile journey to the next destination.

I was sort of waiting for just a variety of Miatas. Truly surprised to see the assorted answers.

Came to the comments with the same thought. This will have to be a pretty small crossover to avoid duplicating there. I’m guessing this’ll be like the Kona and the Ariya like the Tucson, but who knows what Nissan is doing these days.

To be fair, the warnings that they are not working often look like a system fault, rather than a shutoff for conditions. And that leads to people thinking something is wrong, rather than the system working as intended.

The work in unison is why it shuts it down. If part of the assistive systems fails, at least in some brands, it shuts all/most of them down. I had a Honda that certainly did. My Kia seems to be less prone to shut down the assists, so it may not. But I rarely have it warn me that any are off.

The problem isn’t even contestant. It is using “constant” in its place. All of your options would have reduced the probable autocorrect issue, though.

I imagine Torch ran across this info and exclaimed something about there being a tire involved, so it totally counts as automotive news.

Chargepoint, in at least some locations, uses or used a single cabinet between two spaces with a cable for each space. Admittedly, I have not done any long distance on electric to see how common that setup is. It does appear that their Express 250 that is currently in use is a single cable setup. So my info may no

I had a Civic for a brief period a few years back. You *are* basically an ant on the road. I had someone in an SUV back into me in a parking lot because she did not see me out the back window.

I have not used Electrify America, but everywhere I have been with two of the same connector has allowed both to be used. Seems like a really dumb choice on their part to have two CCS but only use one at a time.

I’ll admit to immediately being kind of critical, but this may be a smart move. I am actually looking to get out of a Niro into something a little bigger while I have equity in it.

Ooh, I wanted a base model, but now I need the Marxman or Collective Farm. I mostly thought it would be fun to put a rainbow flag with some sort of patriotic bullshit about respecting the flag on one of these, but I realize I have not gone nearly far enough.

1. Got to go hands-on with one and it seems on-par with my Niro, comfort-wise, except for things like the ventilated seats and such that put me into the top trim level, which is beyond what is offered on the Maverick.

The worst mistake Ford is making isn’t marketing, but limited production.
