How California is preparing its grid to handle the transition to electric vehicles
CurtisH replied to silvrsvt's topic in Ford Motor Company Discussion Forum
I saw a report indicating that natural gas was the largest contributor to decreased GHG in the United States. Sorry, but I don’t remember where I saw it. However, the charts shown earlier appear to support that point. -

How California is preparing its grid to handle the transition to electric vehicles
CurtisH replied to silvrsvt's topic in Ford Motor Company Discussion Forum
From articles I’ve read, I believe it would be viable for commercial use. I believe you are correct regarding the cost, so that may kill any realistic potential for commercial use. -

Next gen Lincoln Nautilus for China leaked
CurtisH replied to joseodiaga4's topic in Ford Motor Company Discussion Forum
We’ve had the Edge 12 years now. I prefer to trade it before it starts to “nickel and dime” us. Had the right rear wheel bearing replaced a few years ago. That is the only non-scheduled repair I’ve had to make. It’s been a really good vehicle. -

CurtisH replied to joseodiaga4's topic in Ford Motor Company Discussion Forum
If I can ever convince my wife to go car shopping, I think she would like the Corsair. Size wise, our 2011 Edge falls between the current Corsair and Edge/Nautilus. We would lose a little bit of cargo space, but there is rarely more than the two of us in the car. Would still have plenty of storage space when traveling. -

Ford Quality Czar Says Issues Should Subside in 2023
CurtisH replied to ice-capades's topic in Ford Motor Company Discussion Forum
From the article: Repairs are not available yet, but after owners are notified and take their vehicles into dealers, the vehicle's engine software will be updated to detect for fuel injector leaks. The dealer will also install a tube that drains fuel from the cylinder head and away from hot surfaces. Ford said if a pressure drop in the fuel rail is detected, engine power will be automatically reduced to minimize risk. Since repairs are not available yet, I thought they were describing a temporary fix. Perhaps I misunderstood. If that is the permanent fix, then I agree that this is a stupid fix. -
Ford Quality Czar Says Issues Should Subside in 2023
CurtisH replied to ice-capades's topic in Ford Motor Company Discussion Forum
I’m not sure I understand why this is a stupid fix. It seems like Ford doesn’t have replacement injectors, so they are implementing a temporary fix until they get the replacement parts. What am I missing? -

Perpetual Future Ford Products thread
CurtisH replied to silvrsvt's topic in Ford Motor Company Discussion Forum
That is an important point. For my wife and me, we aren’t willing to accept that challenge. So, our next vehicle will not be an EV. -

Ford Confirms Layoffs, Says It Is Cutting About 3,000 Jobs - WSJ
CurtisH replied to j2sys's topic in Ford Motor Company Discussion Forum
Most of my career has been in business-oriented software development (not banking). I usually have a 95% rule. That is, make sure the code can handle 95% of the possible scenarios. The remaining 5% may never occur. Just make sure that the error-handling routines gracefully handle that 5% if they actually occur. Even with this approach, it takes extensive testing. For level 5 autonomous driving, this approach would never work. I can’t imagine how difficult it will be to solve this puzzle. I’m still not sure it will be solved in my lifetime. -

We can agree to disagree. If I agreed with you, I probably wouldn’t have bought the 2018 model that I currently drive. 😄 -
