  1. Nothing a few diesel generators won't solve.... You know, clean energy
  2. I immediately thought range Rover evoque on the rear end.
  3. I doubt it. The Explorer Platinum and KR have the same engine too. This is a Ford Performance tune which the ST is the only Ford Performance variant. There are many tuning option out there that will give you more safe performance then this tune if one wants.
  4. Ok, have to give them credit, this bed functionality is awesome!! Hopefully there won't be water leaks over time. https://www.yahoo.com/news/got-early-look-chevys-105-164308895.html
  5. Despite the majority hating it, I actually love it.
  6. One would think this should be in the Lincoln forum. Regardless, I just went to the Build and Price to build one.. Can't get the Blue with the Red interior. Every other color.. sure but Blue, nope. Ughh!!! $65,000 fully loaded.. Wow for a Corsair.
  7. No idea what this has to do with FMC but try uship.
  8. Isn't the Mach e classified as a SUV? If so, the rebate covers up to $80,000 MSRP so nobody is losing it. It's just going in Fords pocket. If it's a sedan, then it's $55k MSRP which majority of the versions still fall under.
  9. Yup, I definitely won't be looking at one any longer as my next vehicle. That's a whole lot of gas you can buy with that.
  10. This is exactly how a car company should take care of their customer. I'll give Toyota props for putting the customer first and going above and beyond.
  11. Lol, it's silly with something like this but this dealer actually doesn't charge dealer/doc fees on any vehicle sale. So yes, with an ADM, it's silly but when buying an ordinary vehicle, they don't add fees to the agreed upon purchase price.
  12. So sell a lightning for $30k over sticker and thenise an allocation or 2. They are still way ahead on profit and worth losing a few. They should be cutting their allocation in half, not just 1 or 2.
  13. Interesting video I saw of politicians questioning Pete Buttigieg about the amount of power 2 EVs at every home equals to across the year. Based on average mileage, if each household has 2 EVs, it is the equivalent as each household having 25 refrigerators plugged in and asked him if the grid can handle that type of demand. His reply was no... So how is our grid going to be able to handle this 100% transition to EV?
  14. Sorry, never even noticed I was at 100%. Cleared out now.
  15. Yes, looks like crap when majority is blocked off. Remind me of the Explorer PIU which looks like ? ? with their grill. I like big grills if done right. Audi for example looks fantastic and executed well.
  16. But it's not an R Raptor, It's a Raptor R. To me if they are going to emphasize the R now which they are going with the badges at the end with a red R, they should have stayed consistant and kept the last R red on both sides. Again, this would drive me nuts seeing it all the time.
  17. Quick video reveal of the EV SS. https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTRhCGcKM/?k=1
  18. Ok, gorgeous truck.. wish I could afford one. But one thing drives me nuts. The "Raptor" decals on the sides of the bed. It just says Raptor and the last R is red.. so Rapto R or is it Raptor. And on the passenger side, the first R is red instead of the last one. This would drive me nuts looking at it every day
  19. Maybe they mean that more are shipping therefore that will equate to more sales. Obviously we know they can't count a retail order till it is sold but if Ford knows more inventory is coming.. They be be playing PR (twist on words) and using the words "dealer inventory" yet it's really "customer orders being delivered".
  20. So now you are saying that they should hold onto the vehicles that are missing parts for what could be months rather then release them to the customer if they are willing to take it. If they are not willing to take it, then cancel the order or refuse it. My sister in law is a prime example.. auto start/stop was deleted as well as the rear climate controls. Ordered, built and delivered in under 10 weeks. She will have the rear climate controls added in once available (this was an XLT). Allocation has a huge play in this as well which is on the dealer, not Ford.
  21. It's not just Ford, it's everyone. Have you seen the videos of the 6 figure AMGs with manual sliding seats? Tellurides are on average 10 months from order to delivery.. yes 10 months. GM removing heated seat functionality on their top trims. This is an industry problem, not just a Ford problem.
