This is also the last year for the current Ranger, that can’t be helping it’s sales.

I learned to drive on one of these, in quintessential 70s green.

My first car was a Toyota Corona Mark II Grande that I bought when I was stationed on Okinawa. It was right hand drive, rear wheel drive with a straight 6, I loved that thing so much. My first car when I got back to the US was a Dodge Diplomat with a slant 6, and foot-switch high beams named the SS Butterfat. Almost…

I have a Mach-E. The front doors have a fixed pull handle and button, while the rears do not are button only. Should I consider these to be a combo 5/13 in the back, with the fronts being a modern return to Class 3, or both fronts and rears as Class 13?

Very nearly as bad as this massive 400hp AWD bus.

It has a midgate, it could be both!

I want a full set of Clippy emoji, but only if I can force them on the people I send them to.

I’m curious about what the sub-911 Porsche models were. Do they have an effect on the big price jumps?

I’m with you on armrest love, but I just can’t handle the ID.4 ones. Because the armrest is mounted to the seat, it always ends up in a just-different-enough-to-be-annoying position from the rest attached to the door. I had a Saturn Vue that was the same way, drove it for years and I never stopped noticing it.

I can answer this one: it depends on how long your legs are. At 5'8" with short-ish legs for my height, I was nowhere close no matter how vigorous my driving. I’ve seen one video with a much taller person where they absolutely did run into it just sitting there.

So disappointed it’s not Esqalade

I’ve never been drunk that early in the day, but I have been drunk that late in the day a couple of times.

If your legs are as short as mine, there’s no armrest for the driver either. FFS carmakers, get rid of that useless crap in the center, move the cupholders up, and put a real armrest in there.

I have years of experience on the floor where I work, but I’d still need weeks of refreshers to do any job here well simply because I don’t do them every day.

I believe I saw a report that the electric unit is different from the Escape and not compatible with its AWD unit. I hope they’ll get it sorted soon!

I can’t express how much I agree with you. I want Rocky and Adrian, I want Morticia and Gomez. Give me love that is a strength for the characters. Love that lasts decades and is full of support for each other.

We call them “sky raisins.”

That defiantly incorrect on the Escape front. I know because we have a 2020 hybrid AWD Escape. The Maverick will use a different hybrid unit that is not compatible with the current AWD unit in the Escape. I would expect an AWD version next year, but who knows.
