I honestly believe ford uses the most plastic out of all the car manufacturers 

Right. For all the praise these trucks get, its never mentioned how trash the interiors are.

Am I the only one who really dislikes the broad move to big screens for everything including the dash?

I’m with you. Ford and GM appear to be in direct competition for cheapest interior materials. Ford goes for most hideous look, and GM for most playskool look. If i’m paying the big bucks (3 years down the road when the big bucks are $25K, that is), I am looking for something like FCA did for the Ram 1500 in 2019. 

My folks got a new F150 last fall. It’s amazing how poor the quality materials are despite it being a ~$55k truck.

Am I the only one that hates Ford interiors? I mean every single model is drab and usually even worse in person (the Mustang is ok, but even thats not saying much). I mean has anyone sat inside the new Explorer or Escape? Full of cheap plastic and just overall not good looking. This interior looks to continue the…

Actually haggling Best Buy on the price of a fridge can save you a great deal of money. 

“...the fact is that you have to haggle for the price for these just sucks. I don’t haggle with best buy on computers and refrigerators.”

The homologation specials of this sounds amazing, like a 4-door GT350.

And it would get me to actually tune in to NASCAR. I don’t watch this stuff - it doesn’t mean anything.

It would be a riot to see actual stock car racing come back into fashion. 

Or you know, let the manufacturers build the damn cars and actually have real cars on track. Gut the interiors for all the safety cage gear you can possibly build into them and then run real cars again. And with the drive train they come equipped with!

While I disagree with taxing the fuck out of anything I’m fine if we let a few companies die to teach the others a lesson. We bailed them all out last time and here we are a decade later with all of them asking for money again. Its becoming the new norm. The car market in particular is a pretty overloaded space. There’…

I keep hearing people say that wages haven’t kept up with inflation, but it isn’t true. If you’re not getting cost of living raises as much, it’s because cost of employer benefits (namely healthcare) have gone up. Or maybe it’s you.

I’m really only here for the David Tracey, Andrew Collins, and Tom McParland articles. Every time I go back to reading a Shilling or Brownell article it’s the same shitty takes regurgitated over and over again. Even when I actually agree with them their schtick is so painful to read.

Because I think certain parts of Jalopnik find it gauche to own a fancy truck. They seem to be blind to the certain reasons for ownership.

How do you even write for this website? This makes sense anyone with the slightest inclination when it comes to understanding economics or common sense. Anyone with a basic knowledge of consumer behavior would have predicted this. Fuel is cheap right now, and with market instability I’d rather buy a vehicle with the…

Because we can all have fun lifestyle coupes, but the moment you put the coupe on a ladder frame and give it a bed, it is a Bad Thing

Why hate on trucks? I prefer cars too but modern trucks really are the do it all vehicle. They make a lot more sense than an SUV to me.

You do realize that a lot of people actually work for a living and need trucks, right? That Kale salad you are eating was grown by a farmer that needed a truck. That structure you are living in was built by contractors that needed a truck. The internet you are using to post was installed by a person who was driving a…
