Great points! And we both completely ignored the huge assets they might lose who have 10-13 years of experience who look at that and say, “with a three month runway, I can find something better.”

Just gonna throw this out there, maybe stir the pot a little:

No freaking dice from me. This was an $8995 car back when I sold cars right out of college. It’s slow, unreliable, and I would rather find a same-year Boxster.

I have to agree with the other commenters. Six lousy months for 20 year employees?! Say someone started there right out of college and has been with them through thick and thin. They’re 42, maybe 43 years old with a few kids ranging from eight to 15 years old. That really one of the best times to be alive, and Ford…

Bingo

Don’t mind me, I’m just over here waiting on the Jalopnik staff to stay consistent with their “end traffic stops” narrative.

I will concede that I typed my reply in haste and had not read the OP comment in context of what else was on sale at the time. They were all crappy, but the Chevette and X bodies were in fact, worse vehicles.

This is Erik Shilling. He thinks damaging private property is perfectly fine in a wide array of circumstances.

For crying out loud, Shilling is on one today and it’s much dumber than usual. “Just tell the automakers to start making EV’s Joe!” I’ve heard the interns at our office say “I can’t even” and now I fully understand the meaning.

I can shed a little bit of light on this for you. Lots of people, and I’m thankful to count myself among them, faced nearly zero economic hardship last year. We just kept on doing our jobs but in a different location than we usually do. When I got to the office on June 8, 2020 I saw so many in-transit tags in the…

Trying to beat yesterday’s 94% ND?
Holy mackerel this reminds me of that.... Nova(?) from last week. 

Anybody who says a K car was better than anything other than walking, is smoking something that’s illegal in most states.

One I would absolutely do again: Omaha, NE to Daytona Beach, FL.

Take your star and bask in glory

I wish I could give a heart instead of a star. Fortunately, public sector employee union support is waning as most of them have overplayed their hand during the pandemic.

Isn’t $35k about market for a well-kept, later model Prowler? This is not a well-kept Prowler, but it is later model. My gosh those wheels... that wrap.... that underglow....

I’d much rather see Dolly Parton’s great big... smile than many other monuments.

Very cool. Not surprising, but very cool. Many country music fans have known for some time that Dolly Parton is a big time philanthropist in addition to an ethical business woman, but she’s not super outward about it. Let your left hand know not what the right hand does.

The take rate is completely superfluous to the fact that they were good cars. Does the fact that Ford sells very few Raptors, relative to the number of non Raptor F-150's, mean that the Raptor is a bad pickup?

It is clear by the content of your comment that you are way out of your depth on this topic.
