1st gear - What a waste of a good name, Model e would be the ultimate name for a popular price model, if Ford ever gets past only making EVs for the rich.

Late 1980s Mercedes 560 SEL. It drove like what I always imagined an 18-wheeler would feel like, loud, stiff, lumbering and noisy.

They do really seem to be having a moment. Damn shame, great looking designs.

I’m surprised Texas hasn’t outlawed drag races yet... think of the children!

The lengths companies must go to make bland little crossovers seem edgy. Sad thing is the sheeple will likely love it. I predict median age of these things even older than the demographic that adored Aztec, which of course will be AARP age, which happens every time a brand tries to appeal to younger buyers... Element,…

Sounds like a software issue to me, like the lane centering is trying to take over.

Corruption in Texas????????

Being nearly roasted alive in a Tesla got him to switch brands, another smart anti-aging tactic.

Exactly. This isn’t the normal inconsiderate parking type situation that deserves a light whack of the ruler across the hand, this is intentional MAGA climate-denier bullshit malice to prevent EV drivers from charging up. $500 might, might be enough to sting enough to make the bros think twice.

I have no problem with low riders but it pains me that in some way or another nearly all the pristine GM malaise-era survivors are no longer original.

This all sounds promising. Now if Ford would just do one damn fun vehicle that wasn’t a crossover/SUV/truck, like an electrified Mustang coupe, I’d get excited.

Officer Lillywhite sounds like a name SNL would make up for skit.

Seems like demand for both these vehicles would be sufficient enough that trying to shoehorn production into the same plant wouldn’t be necessary.

I think they have an extremely valid point there. I consider myself a very competent car buyer and had absolutely no idea companies were making a profit on this. But no big surprise that the courts decided in favor of Big Auto over consumers, glad they are appealing and I wish them luck.

Unless I am reading this wrong, this is 100% the fault of the air traffic controller for not immediately correcting the driver when they read back the instructions wrong. I mean, that’s the entire reason they read them back, for confirmation, so why the delay in “realizing” the mistake?

When you have to power the trailer and maintain it like another EV, claiming it’s preserving the range of the towing vehicle is rather disingenuous because it’s more like taking two EVs (or one EV and one ICE-powered vehicle) to get there instead of one.

Actually the cheapest way to get a vintage Land Rover (and one that’s actually vintage) is this... at a fraction of the price and with none of the compromises required to turn the toy into a Lego.

Third generation Taurus - Although it still looks like a much cheaper car than the first two generations, at least it still had a few right angles. And you’re being very generous with that description, not only did Taurus give up the number one spot alternating with Accord, it sent the nameplate hurtling towards…

Sorry ociffer, I was too drunk to walk four blocks, so I drove.

If this translates to people of a certain political persuasion have so little to do that they watch to see what race their Amazon driver is so they can give them a thumbs down, that’s really depressing.
