454 with those tires and gearing? If it got 1mpg I’d be shocked.

How do the front tires not rub when it turns?

Let’s dissect this for a second. The Focus didn’t come out in the US till MY ‘00 and the SVT Focus was MY ‘02. The SHO V6 was canned in ‘95 and replaced with the V8 which was only available till ‘99.

PWM removes the flicker because it IS noticeable, which is why you don’t see dimming fluorescent bulbs.  It’s a headache in a beam.

Actually that’s something about older/cheaper LEDs that bothers me to no end. Move your head side to side and you can see the flicker as it happens at 60hz (what you get from the plug here in the US). The PWM units won’t have the flicker and have a soft on/off ramp up/down.

I’m guessing he is saying 150HP isn’t great out of 2 liters in 2020?

Super frig that.

We all wish we were clairvoyant when it comes to rates, tell me about it.  I will say shop around but be sure the company you end up with is both:  1.  Not scum and 2. Not likely to sell the note to a company that is scum.

It’s like the videos circulating social media where the husband buys his wife her “dream home” that she saw and talked about once before.  WTF If I did that I’d be single AND broke.

How does it compare to a similarly priced/sized car in the same market?

All of Maine has 2 Mercedes dealers total.  They’re about 150 miles apart.  You have some independent shops that might specialize, but otherwise you’re always a long ways from a dealer.

If there’s a name that better embodies Scania than Henrik Henriksson I don’t know what it could be.

Oh sure, it does mean you’re not getting that 3% rate with no points or closing costs, and you may have to shop around for a bank willing to wheel and deal. I looked at a refi this year but after a million hoops it would have cost me around $15K to refi and the savings just weren’t there any more.

When you work for yourself, the name of the game is get your net income as close to 0 as possible. If you’re not taking the deductions available to you, that’s money left on the table.

You can’t teach a triangle pi, and you can’t admit you have a super soft take on the GT.

From my experience those ABS sensors usually signal the changing of a wheel bearing on the 2nd gen Explorer.  It’s a dead simple process that is inexpensive even done at a mechanic.  Mileage is about right for them to start going, but even doing them all isn’t going to break the bank.  I only wish it had the 5.0 and…

It has a ABS light on, which usually means it’s time for a wheel bearing.

We’re lucky to build a mid sized bridge for $160M in the US, and it won’t look this good.

You’re moving the goalposts here by stating that the car would be, according to you and a claimed majority of people, objectively cooler with a different powertrain. The argument can be made that it is objectively cooler for not having the standard default V8 engine and going with something unique instead. The only…

If they lost another one it would essentially kill Boeing as a commercial jet company.  You couldn’t convince anyone they were competent after that.
