Why are you assuming they need escape buyers to buy Bronco Sports? Thats not the plan. They’re replacing Escape production with EVs. Much like they replaced Fusion with BS and Maverick. That said it does open the door for a longer wheelbase version of BS with more amenities and a hybrid powertrain.

They never said or implied that. Only that Bronco Sport would be their 2 row crossover entry going forward.

So not new just retooled.

I knew a Ford suspension engineer who worked on the Lincoln LS which came with Firestones. He said they went through almost 20 different tire formulations before picking one. I doubt they do that with truck tires though.

We were told there was mere inches of headroom for Continental in FR - Maverick would require that renovation they started then stopped. Whats the other new plant besides BOC? Or is he counting the new battery plant?

Pretty sure that songs on a playlist are played in order because it’s a file and you control the order in the file.

Make a playlist.

I hate to admit it but I’ve seen a few of the new ones with the offroad package and they look great.

Very strange. Does the Lincoln app work?

Did you get a data plan from AT&T?

Back when they changed their print version to bi-weekly I said they had to change their name to AutoEveryOtherWeek…… Is there still a print version? I really liked it back in the early 2000s.

We no longer have access to the dealer system that provides the order guides. We only post them if other people provide them.

Well if you can steal an entire Raptor….

427, 429 - whatever it takes….. 😂

It finally arrived and no tariffs. 0-60 4.0 secs. Couldn’t be happier!

So even if you take the death penalty off the table you still have life in prison. Still doesn’t stop them. Criminals are criminals and they’re either stupid or don’t care.

I agree with the last part but the first part is silly. If she was willing to do something “if asked nicely” then why not offer that to resolve the tariff situation? Makes no sense. Thats why it’s called negotiation.

Even the death penalty doesn’t stop premeditated murder. Simply doesn’t work on hard core criminals. Short term maybe a little but longer term it forces more manufacturing back to the US. More US jobs and no tariffs. The goal is for Mexico to be more proactive on drug smuggling and be more favorable to U.S. exports and the tariffs go away. Ball is in their court.

Fenatanyl deaths by year. Probably exponentially higher by now.

If it was that easy it would have already been done. It’s a bit extreme but when the other side has zero motivation to change you have to do something.

Guess what wasn’t a big problem during his first term but is now? Fentanyl.

We have it on our Nautilus. It works pretty well 80% of the time but sometimes it pulls the vehicle too close to the adjoining lane (on top of the line). And the lines were very visible. I usually don’t use it.

Then it’s time for Mexico to step up to the bargaining table and get their own deal.

Obviously the pinch sensors weren’t working so they opted to disable them for safety. If it’s a software problem they’ll probably reenable it later.
