or a little flag?

Indeed, but that retooling of the plant was for that Explorer . The retool was part of the rollout itself. At least with the Lighting they have the benefit of already been producing this F150 for about a year, just with a different drivetrain.

I am by no means diminishing how difficult it is. I too work in an industry that is depend on several different companies all with their own several different vendors to produce a product (commercial construction). Nothing ever goes perfectly.

Indeed, heaven for bid they completely deservedly bus-toss the UAW.

1st: I have loved just about everything about F150 Lighting since it got revealed. I love that it looks like a normal truck. I love that there is real innovation like with the generator feature that makes the vehicle seem futuristic without being gimmicky. I love that the base model costs about 4k more than a base…

I’m curious, what sort of vehicle was the 7400 put into?

I’m pretty sure Eord is some kind of dutch royalty.

The kid’s name is X Æ A-Xii

Hear hear. GT Sport has been a good game despite some faults, but being without the classic fantasy tracks is huge sore spot.

Seriously, the Suburban of all things would probably run fine on goat piss. 

Running on premium only improves performance (both power and fuel economy) if the engine is tuned right to the edge of knocking out of the factory, which manufacturers have *RARELY* have done since the 70's, only ever in performance cars, because warranties.

I’m not talking about a Viper, I’m talking about something like an Avalon (because that’s practically the only one left. The ole’ land yachts that boomers used to idolize are probably closer to modern CUV’s than they are to most modern sedans in terms of egress.

I find it’s best to swap first letters/prefixes of modelsand manufactureres. 

I figured based on there being literally no pictures of regular and supercab variants. Still seems like a great deal because the cheapest you can get a gas crew is about 36.5k.

Were they that low? Like, have you tried getting in a Ford Panther vs. one of the last Impalas? The land yachts might not have matched standing height the way most CUV’s do now, but I don’t think they qualified as low.

*Most* unions have avenues set up for members to get on unemployment as soon as they are sent home. It tends to be on a week to week basis, but its common in some trades for a guy who has worked 40 hours over a span of three weeks to bill all those hours in one week and then claim unemployment for the other two. I…

I think just about everyone agrees with you. I’d just argue that Monaco is one of the last sporting events that can sustain itself on pageantry and aura alone. Couple that with just about any on track incident necessitates a safety car that could turn the race on its head, and  I don’t find it that hard to watch all…

I’m curious though what cab that base model is actually going to have. If it comes as a crew cab than that’s a STEAL, but I imagine the only they have been showing off the crews is because that’s what they want to sell the most of for the sake of the margins.

HELL yes. One of my friends who lives by me in Chicago but was visiting family on the west coast sent me a craiglist nearby for a ‘94 Ranger, single cab, manual RWD. Thing had some surface rust and 180k miles on it but frame was in good shape and mechanically sound. Guy was asking for 3000, so my friend sent me that…

I just think it’s so goddam important that it’s a essentially just a very normal, common, mass produced vehicle that *happens* to be a BEV. There’s no weirdo gimmicky bullshit (Hummer being the Warthog from Halo, Tesla’s general Tesla-ness) to justify the price the premium BEV’s. Fortunately, people have already been…
