In these tug of wars, traction is king. You want a real towing test, take something like an 8000 lb trailer and line the trucks up side by side at the bottom of a long grade. Then race up the grade. Then turn around on the top and come back down. Truck that gets to the top first and is the quickest/least dramatic to…

Those truck pull stunts are always bullshit. The heaviest truck almost always wins. It’s a traction game. No one is surprised an EV truck is heavier than an F-150 and no one is surprised an AWD truck beat out another truck in 2WD mode.

The Gang Dilutes a Brand Name

Justin lives in North Carolina. He’s often a bit confused about how the rest of the world works. 

“It’s finally getting cold outside around the U.S.”

I’m an airline pilot that flew out of Chicago during this storm. What happened here was you have a contaminated runway, snow and ice with braking action advisories in effect, plus a strong gusty crosswind. After touchdown, the mostly likely cause was as the plane slowed and the rudder loses effectiveness you rely more…

That looks like a 2.7L EcoBoost. You can see the top of the 2.7EB-only (AFAIK) cartridge style oil filter cap between the two damper reservoirs.

Plus, if you miss the icon you really wanted to click, you end up clicking some unknown icon that gets you into some other menu screen, so now you’re like “WTF is this shit?  That’s not what I clicked” and looking for the new icon that gets you back to the previous screen so you then find the icon you originally…

How do they honestly expect people to pick and select the proper icons without taking their eyes off the road for an extended period of time? Just as I think these things can’t get any worse, the newest version from the next manufacturer just seems to have even more buttons.

Something you missed in your comparison between the 2 row Edge and 3 row competitors is this:

Where are you getting your numbers?

So my F31 328xi wagon is faster than this, better looking, gets drastically better gas mileage, and has more cargo space. I know this opinion has been said to death, but why on earth are people buying these things when you get a drastically better experience by just buying a car?

But unions are great and we should never question them!

I’m just glad the UAW is putting forth the effort to make it a safe environment for its dues-paying members such as a union is intended...oh wait...that doesn’t seem to be happening. Good point about management. Where the fuck are they? Or, like you said, does it all stem from the top?

Additionally, where’s the UAW on this? These are their members doing the attacking or intimidation as well as the victims. 

1st gear: Ford engineers: The Explorer isn’t ready for production. Ford management: That’s okay, we’ll let our customers debug the problems.

“Roving groups of workers are intimidating other employees”. How does that even happen? Are there no management level employees in this plant or are they thugs as well? 

Wouldn’t self adhesive reflective tape cut to shape serve the same purpose for a lot less? Edit: Well, they claim to be more durable, more reflective, and able to deform in 2 directions.

I’m calling the entire thing fake right now before it inevitably comes out that this is a hoax (should anyone care enough to bother with getting to the bottom of this). I’m not accusing the player of making it up himself, but whoever typed this is just some troll looking to create controversy, and is definitely not an…
