JZ150

My 11 year old “that thing looks awesome. It’s an electric Mustang? Can we get one?” I have a tough time with his response. I just can’t seem to get excited about electric vehicles. Maybe I’m getting old. Maybe I just need to give in. I feel like I’ll miss the sense of sound in an electric. My 6 year old said it looks wicked. He wants it too. for now I’ll stick with my 8250 redline in my 350R

Hate to see it go. We are on our third Flex. Great vehicle for a family of 5 and to top it off it’s a great highway cruiser. I am amazed that my Expedition gets a full 2 MPG more than the wife’s Flex.

2069. Is this June 9 reveal?

The next couple years will be interesting for Ford. The table is set for some pretty cool vehicles. Raptor with 700 hp GT500 Bronco Bronco Raptor? lincoln Mustang inspired coupe? Explorer ST Mach E (or whatever they call it) Mustang inspired SUV 7.3 motor RWD platform for explorer/aviator too bad we don’t get the ST/RS Focus good time to be a Ford fan

Bronco? Dont shoot me for saying it. Lol

Levine clarified the Mach 1 name to Jalopnik. Look at their article and it listed as update at 6PM. Its a damn shame that in the article Levine has to update them twice after the release. #butchered

Anyone else feel like they butchered this whole thing. I watched the release video a couple times and had no clear idea what Ford was trying to say. Then mike Levine tweets about the vehicle and its not clear. Then Mike Levine tweets again to clarify his original tweet. He also tweets that the Mach 1 name is just being tested. Tested? Test it with a small group not the whole world. Who is running the show? This was poorly executed in my opinion.

http://www.autoblog.com/2016/07/23/2017-ford-f-150-raptor-pricing-leaked/ I almost expected it to be higher. Still a ton of money but reasonable considering where it lands in the current lineup

50,000 miles on a 2012 F150 Supercrew 4X4 and according to the MPG readout, I have averaged 16.0 MPG for the 50,000 miles. I am good with that considering how much time my truck spends at the job site (low speed, idle time). I can get close to 20 on the highway running 70 ish MPH. You can def tell a difference in the way you drive it.

Can this RWD platform lead to a F100/Ranger replacement?

700 miles of highway and the rest mixed city driving plus three extended idling periods to feed a 2 year old and an 8 month old. Most of the highway driving was 75MPH in the mountains so there are several long pulls up the hills. I am impressed with the MPG for the trip taken.

I thought I would share my real world MPG for a 900 mile trip taken this past weekend. The truck is a 2011 F150 Supercrew 4X4 5.0L with 3.73 gears.
