  1. Busy starting programs to cancel them right before they launch
  2. I still hear people calling regular gt500s Eleanor at car shows pretty frequently, I think gone in 60 second may have had a big impact on using the GT350/500 names.. plus all the racing heritage.
  3. Sounds a lot like a current poster that is always unhappy 🤣
  4. Essentially my point, the people that are loudest about wanting exactly what this company is providing will find some other reason it's not right and not buy it, imo.
  5. Yeah, it's definitely interesting and a very loud segment of the market they're trying to address. Time will tell if Slate can deliver and if the squeaky wheels really want the grease or just to squeak.
  6. Not sure if completely on topic, but I'm curious to see how the new Slate truck does. It checks all the boxes for all the comment sections/forum people that don't want all the "useless" stuff and want a basic/simple/cheap ride. I'm interested because someone finally is doing it, but I'm betting most of the ones clamoring for it will still find a reason to not buy new and wait it out until it's even cheaper used. Maverick has done well on the ice/hybrid version of affordable so maybe they're on to something. Their presentation was a little sketchy, but so was every other start ups first time in the spot light so................. who knows, something to watch anyway.
  7. Seems pretty no brainer to me to take the raptor body, slam it on the ground, make it awd and offer the R engine if they really want to get back into the street truck market. But like you said, this looks a lot like an appearance package.
  8. I thought a manual backup was required inside on all cars?
  9. I'd bet on coyote based... maybe Godzilla, but doubt it. If you mean an actual FE 428, besides never happening, why would they want less power and more weight??
  10. I do that in my old 7.3 😅 Mostly not on purpose, but it does dump some fuel in the 'hot' tune
  11. I wouldn't mind if Ram drives boycotted driving because they couldn't get their HEMI. Without fail it is them tailgating and driving like an absolute fool when you're already doing 15 over in the hammer lane. "Dick in a dodge" is what we called them years ago.
  12. Just here to say both a 4 door mustang and a Lincoln version (continental I'd hope) sound really cool and I'd love to see it. Also seems like a good opportunity to introduce the v6 ecoboost (maybe even hybrid/phev if it transfers affordably from cd6) to both. As much as I'd like to own the continental it'd be very hard for me to justify that purchase. Makes sense for incremental volume for flat rock and maybe some pretty good margins if they sell enough. Who knows if the actual demand is there though, besides Ford I guess.
