  1. If it's in Miami, it's just being tested for real world, road rage duty actually. Maybe they are testing new brakes on the Edge which are desperately needed...thats a great place to test them at :)

     

    :hysterical: No, it was the Boca area.

     

    Miami drivers are horrible though.

  2. Funny and entertaining - and granted I'm not Australian so I probably don't fit their target market - but, it seems to me that I'd be more convinced to buy a "ute" on its merits than a cheesy commercial. That's why I like the current F-150 commercials. They show real advantages of the truck, and what it can actually do. Hot chicks around here would follow around stupid ricermobiles, doesn't mean I'd buy one because of it ...

     

    I agree. I did think it was funny though.

  3. Aside from the front end which could use a little less of the curvy treatment I like this one. Great mileage too. If jeep builds this one I'll end up trading in my Wrangler for it.

    I don't think I'd opt for the green color either.

     

    It does look cool. I don't like the green color either. Maybe they painted it that color to emphasize the fact that it's a "green" car?

  4. Ford is a little late to the game with a Hemi fighter. Here Chrysler is saying that the Hemi's days are numbered and Ford still hasn't got their engine out on the market yet. I will say this though...a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. Even if the Boss is as great as they say, its not here yet. If I were buying a half-ton next year, I'd likely go Ram Hemi again.

     

    It'd be cool if they had a way to have the BOSS be the most fuel efficient V8 in a truck.

  5. So, ability and capability is "lame ass" but, "who's got the prettiest interior..." isn't? If your opinion is that the Dodge has a sharper interior, so be it, but the Ford has better capabilities.....time will tell.

     

    I think the F-150 has the nicer interior.

  6. Hey rmc523, thanks for the welcome. It's driving me crazy waiting for FORD to release the BOSS to public! If its as good as some are reporting, it's gonna be AWESOME!!!! :happy feet: :happy feet:

     

    You're welcome. I agree, I can't wait either.

  7. I was being driven to the Enterprise rental lot to pick up my rental car. They picked me up in an Avenger........CHEAP CRAP!

     

     

    nothing from Chrysler impresses me.

     

    They have to put thousands on the hood to sell them

     

     

    Went to the Detroit autoshow, and have to agree. Chrysler/Dodge needs to start competeting, or they will end up selling only to employees and rentals....

     

    I agree. All Chrysler stuff is cheap.

  8. Have your parents considered a 2008 Expedition?

     

    Yes and no. We're still trying to decide what to do car-wise when I go to college, so that will play a factor as well. Plus we're still paying off the 04 (I believe). The Expedition offers so much for the money though, and really the smaller vehicles dont offer that much better fuel economy for the price and the sacrifice in size you make.

     

    I, for one, would love to have a new Expedition Limited in White Chocolate Tri-Coat with a tan interior. (much nicer than the 04s)

  9. What's strange about a Ford Edge Limited, we've already sold more then a dozen of them :idea: Probably just a Ford rep's car.

     

    It wasn't the vehicle that was strange (I see quite a few Limiteds already), it was it's license plate. It had a Michigan Manufacturer plate (in S. Florida), which are usually on vehicles being tested.

  10. How are those "declining across the board "Ford sales holding up?

     

    How is that declining stock price holding up?

     

    Actually, Ford stock was up 0.32 points, or 5.39% today to close at $6.58.

     

    And those declining sales are beginning to end.

  11. No son, listen, you gotta learn how to talk good english boy. lol

     

    Do ya'll think. Not you all. Come on, don't be such a duddly do right. Ya'll. See how that just rolls off the tounge better?

     

    Kind like "Mister I'm about to beat your butt!!!"

     

    No, no you stick in the mud, it's "Boy I'm fixinda whip yur ass!!!" See?

     

    You'll get it. You'll be fine. Practice in the mirror. LOL

     

    Maybe they were testing the Edge for high humidity climates. Didn't someone say they are looking at selling them in Brazil?

    :hysterical: Sorry....I will try to correct my ways. FIXED!!

     

    That could be possible. Yes, they're going to sell them in Brazil.

  12. Just guessing, but the film could be clear with the black or white spots already on it, and they just cover everything with it. Find out who makes the film, and all you MI residents can drive Priddy & Co. stark raving nuts. :)

     

    As to the pictures, I have to agree with one poster on LLN that the vertical bars aren't on the grille, they're on the cover. The grille behind them looks more solid, like a Fusion 3-bar grille. It has spots, too.

     

    I'm not sure about the painted vertical bars. They look real to me, I think they're spotted, without a 3 bar behind them.
