  1. So how is Ford getting away with this blatant lie. KIA Sorento 7 passenger is rated 22 city/ 32highway Toyota Highlander Hybrid 4wd is rated 28 in the city for God's sake.
  2. Interesting. Seems Ford is halting production as they are using the same pedals as Toyota. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704194504575030891636493402.html
  3. Wow, what a derailed thread. And what a thread full of ignorance about the Ridgeline. I love the comparisons to the F-150 you Ford Shills. Why are you afraid to compare it to Ford's real competitors? The Sport Trac, or Ranger. Base Ridgeline to the Base 4x4 Sport Trac. Sport Trac is a couple grand more expensive. The sport Trac gets even worse mileage. The Sport Trac is way down on hp. The Sport Trac is longer, taller, yet the bed is even shorter than the Ridge and the passenger space is way down below the Ridgeline. The Sport Trac has a lower payload. The Sport Trac is rated to tow a whopping 80 more pounds, but there is a caveat. - Truck makers rate maximum towing with zero passengers, and zero payload in the vehicle - Ridgeline tow rating is 5000 -plus passenger - plus 150 of luggage Ford tried to copy the in-bed huge trunk on the Ridgeline, but the Sport trac's version will barely hold a six pack. The list goes on.
  4. Why did "WE" save GMAC? WE didn't. Follow the money. GMAC is owned by Cerberus. An USA ex-vice president is a Chairman at Cerberus. Political pocket lining. YOUR representatives saved GMAC with YOUR money to reward an ex political ally.
  5. GM doesn't have to make a profit. Obama will just funnel more taxpayer money to keep the UAW happy.
  6. Good ole wiki. I wonder what wiki's answer is for my 98 Grand Cherokee. Unibody construction, solid front and rear axles......
  7. yeah, funny how that works. Ford Sport Trac is listed on their website as an SUV, not a truck.
  8. Yeah, my dad took his Ford to the dealership at the beginning of the massive cruise control recall. They informed him his was not recalled. Guess what, Ford years later added his truck. It seems Ford keeps adding to the cruise control recall list. I guess Ford was waiting for many of those affected to be out of service, then add to the recall.
  9. Yeah, don't worry about the Expedition burning your house down in the middle of the night!
  10. GM losing $5000 per SAAB. Is that loss less than the loss they have on Chevrolets, Buicks, Caddies? Perhaps GM should stick with SAAB if they determine that is their brand losing the least amount per vehicle. Give us tax payers a break already.
  11. I can't believe Ford guys are complaining about "blocky" SUVs. :shades:
  12. No, I meant while driving. The top really is that easy. Press one button, grab lever and flick the roof back. Not much more effort than opening an electric sunroof. The Miata top is a marvel.
  13. I'd say the JDM Odyssey is more a competitor to the Flex.
  14. As an owner of a MX-5, one of the biggest beauties in the car is the fantastic roof design. Pure simplicity and ease of use. WHILE driving you can lower and raise the top with just one hand. The Pontiac and Saturn are the polar opposite, and an example of everything NOT to do when designing a convertible top. Utterly unacceptable top design.
  15. Dude, get a clue. First, Microsoft doesn't invent stuff, they copy from other people. Second, Acura has had voice activation for many many years!
  16. Do you really care that much what this kid Brad thinks in HIS OPINION and rating of these vehicles?
  17. I thought they moved to Washington DC several months ago when Obama took control of GM.
  18. Hi, I read that finally after all these years, Ford is finally putting side air bags in their trucks.
  19. I'm not sure who is better at tricking the EPA test cycles for Monroney Label bragging rights. GM or Toyota.
