The BWW one is even better, IMHO, by the sauce-factor alone.

Oh man, how about not just a trunk, but a whole car filled to the cubic inch?
I’ve got an entire photo album for this one, but here’s a couple photos that peel back the layers:

Look, I fucking love these gen 1 CRVs.

Now thats what I call a Ford Fiesta!

“FRUNKY” is a very good EV vanity plate.

Ford Accountant: “Hey, I got the purchase request for supplies for this weeks marketing photoshoot with the Mach E prototype. It looks like all you included was 90 pounds of buffalo wings and an extra large spread of cocktail shrimp. Can you send expected costs for the models and crew? Sounds like a big shoot with…

Glass gets dirty, scuffed, and broken. Adhesive fails. Those alignment servos do die or strip out pretty regularly on older cars.

No, I work in the industry as a mechanical engineer. I’ve sourced and tested automotive-grade cameras and screens.

By that logic, why would they give a shit about anything?

Right, and Ford sold cars with transmissions that would fail in the form of sudden and unexpected surges of power.

It comes with some advantages, such as better visibility at night and in the rain/snow. It also provides a much greater field of view. You can also pipe that camera view onto any of the interior screens for better contextual situational awareness.

Also, cameras and screens are pretty freaking bulletproof at this point.…

We’re a lot less flexible about things like camera mirrors and crash testing- I think that’s all it is.
E-Tron got around it by putting real mirrors on the NA models, but that’s not a simple change- all the screens dedicated to those cameras and all the software expecting those cameras has to be altered. If those…

Is your commute short enough that you can get away with a two or three partial recharges a week?

I can’t charge easily at home and the charger at work is shared, but I still make it work with a 120 mile range i3 and I love it.

That being said, if it’s NO to all of the above,…

This has startling implications for the current presidential regime.

Oh totally- but a lot of those cars have a lot more real estate for that arrangement AND a lot of those cars still end up having to turn off the brake lamp when the turn signals engage.

Thats a pretty small little corner that Jeep left themselves to fit brakes, running lights, and turn signals.

I honestly don’t like the…

Torch, I’m sorry, but this is wildly common. I agree it doesn’t seem ideal, but it’s the result of a couple different CFR regulations.

The four offending regulations are:

I’m about to sell my ‘04 6-speed TSX with 140k, a flawless interior, and a dinged up exterior and I was thinking about starting at $4.5k after I put new tires on it.

Fantastic car. Absolutely adore it, and they hold up well. The outside on this one looks better than mine but the inside is trashed.

Here’s the thing,…

Having seen it in person, what’s your take on Cam’s comment?
Everything I heard from people who saw it was contrary to what he said.

Shame their infotainment looks and feels like its from 2002...
That’s the one thing that holds me back on them.
