  1. Another 2 door SUV/CUV? Why? There is no market for 2 doors.
  2. And yet a Bronco based on existing architecture and powertrain takes how long?
  3. Quad headlights and it's a BMW
  4. Mid 70s Thunderbird and Lincolns. But to your point, that was about moving very heavy cars. Not necessarily speed.
  5. I think that was a miss. The Sky should have been a Saab and the 9-2x a Saturn. The 9-7 should have never existed. Badge engineering can work if done within the brand character.
  6. No love for the Granada as a name? No worse than anything else suggested.
  7. Check your math. Ford alone has 15 models.for every model disappearing, another is taking its place.
  8. It comes from a wholesaler and its dyed red.
  9. Let's get people excited about a vehicle that won't launch for 5 years... then do the same with a variant where the original still hasn't launched.
  10. Seeing as how Silverado keeps slipping, there are fewer and fewer people that agree with you on this point.
  11. It will be interesting to see how this compares to the redesigned RAV4. The previous model with the stormtrooper grill sold very well. The Tacoma inspired "masculine" look seems to be selling well, so far. With Ford softening or "feminizing"the Escape, will it gain or lose?
  12. I guess you've never dealt with a Toyota diesel forklift. They're pretty solid without catchy ad agency focus group names.
  13. The front end feels Mazda-ish
  14. Its name is Toyota. And yes, some jurisdictions have separate classifications for coach/heavy truck mechanics vs light duty vehicle mechanics.
  15. He had a thing for square lights. Square wheel arches. Square accents in the interior...
  16. In Canada, the government is suggesting adding charging stations to the building code. If it passes ALL new homes condos, towers etc would have to install these at point of construction. No word on retrofitting existing apartments and condos.
  17. Or Fords steering wheel buttons that lose the back finish leaving visible white plastic.
  18. I'm sure Ford would protect themselves from any loss of partnership. Chrysler continued to use MB tech/design after being sold.
