  1. ? its 416 in the bronco Raptor right now ( 455 with the tune, although truth be told I didnt notice much difference, tires I believe nullify any seat of the pants ) ....and the 3.5 eco is already 450 in the F150
  2. dunno...I remember renderings of a Transit Connect like van a year or so ago and it looked good....
  3. the little Ford "van" apparently had the front end of the Maverick.....
  4. id have to think thats directly from the Dealer to drum up potential pre orders...
  5. kinda confusing how it was relayed to me, and I agree with you...there have also been rumors regarding a Transit Connect replacement with EV and hybrid drivetrains...but I cant confirm how solid the rumors are....
  6. Im Ford only my friend....there was also mention of a Transit Connect replacement that could be 7 so Im hedging my bets...but its a needed injection of excitement with new product ...
  7. apparently the styling is very svelte and it doesnt LOOK like a 4 door...
  8. .... range extended F150 Lightning replacement maybe, but weve known about that for a while, so perhaps not one of the 6. Theres also the "hybrid? " Superduty rumors....6 new products were referred to, not all 6 were shared from what i was told..
  9. nothing solid per say...but itwas mentioned at the Dealer meeting to expect hybrid drivetrains basically across the board....
  10. Ill let Ford release the breakdown...Im tentative mentioning anything for fear of getting the Dealer Principle in trouble, but a LOT was shared at the Dealer meeting that got me excited...and Im a rather hard sell...ESPECIALLY with Electric....Im hoping the buyers are less "douchey" than the Mach E and Lightning clients...
  11. yes theres more....its intriguing to say teh least....some of those "patents" are instituted...
  12. been way to many of those and consequently backed up inventory...going through it right now on some Explorers and something to do with the second row seats....and some 2025 Broncos STILL sitting here...
  13. we refer to it as peeling the Banana from both ends.....
  14. dont get me wrong...I kinda dig the Slate, and I think initially it will do well ( its different and not mainstream ) until people realize some of the shortcomings, 4 doors alone is HUGE just from a convenience standpoint, then there's servicing, parts availability, durability and reliability ( after all its a startup ) and other potential issues...
  15. thats my point, with Slate thats the ONLY option ( 2dr 4 passenger option starts just under 30k ) which gives the ______ a distinct advantage for a similar , of not cheaper price...with more std equipment...nice try Bezos.
  16. Mums the word for the next few....personally I like it....but the little product snippets we were told gives me high hopes, even given its Electric, may just be a perfect sweet spot...at an "affordable " price tag
  17. exactly....thats huge.....but you can make it into a 2 door for 4 passengers...how much is that option...my 2 dr Bronco is a bloody NIGHTMARE to get in the back...4 doors is much more desirable if carrying passengers.
  18. its in there....hint to narrow it down...two syllables
  19. its going to kill the Slate given std equipment at a starting price below 30k, being a4 door for starters....how much more does that option add to the Slate...then theres power windows etc....
  20. been too long...its the major subject that found me here...screw the Electric BS...that market went exactly as I thought it would, at least initially....not too certain about its future either....be prepared for a hybrid resurgence...
  21. apparently a replacement for the Escape is inthe pipelines... The Bronco Sport will remain its own entity....expect some more drivetrain choices....
  22. Name has been released...to be revealed couple of days...
  23. interesting tid bits on this vehicle, some really cool features ...Ill share when embargo is lifted so Dealer principle doesnt get in trouble...Im sure it will get leaked...much like the 4 door Mustang....6 new vehciles in next couple of years...FINALLY something of interest...
