  1. The more I look at it the more I like it. The front is going to take some time but boy the rest of it is beautiful to me. They got it right. Good morning America did a sorry job and didnt give enough air time imo.
  2. Yep, and I am praying it doesnt have a Fusion front clip on it.
  3. The fundamental problem with this argument to me is that you are comparing ancient drive trains to the latest greatest from Ford/Gm. Now it is what it is at this moment but lets see what the Colly can deliver. The other elephant in the room is price. Once again, if you dont need a full size there is probably 6K you can keep in your pocket.
  4. Yup, vast majority in my area carry a sack or two of groceries and a styrofoam minnow bucket on a normal day. Add a case of beer on the weekend and thats about it. I am all for weight loss however they can come up with it. The 150's are so capable now that its ridiculous.
  5. How about putting the 10 Billion back to where it came from and that is the taxpayers pockets! Jesus Christ, all you libs want to do is tax and spend.
  6. Ford is a text book study on how to do things right financially anyway. The goverment is a text book study on how to spend other peoples money with nothing to show for it and then still be in the hole.
  7. Its a good question and I have yet to hear any answer to. I think the big plan here is to legislate through executive order the rest of BHO's term and be damned anybody that challenges it. Remember, the DC court of appeals is now about to be controlled by liberals. He knows he is a lame duck and this is the way its going to be. At least, that is my theory.
  8. The memo has been passed around to quietly referre to Barack Hussein Obamacare now as the Affordable care act. The pres no longer wants his name attached to the cluster. The libs who passed it will not attach BHO's name to it any longer. They are in full panic mode. The BHO administration likes to run the clock out on other scandals but its not going to work on this one. This is a giant snowball already headed straight to hell and it cant be stopped now. Thanks liberals!
  9. Interesting the 4.3 is not being used here. I am assuming the 3.6 is more efficient even without cylinder deactivation. The more I look the more I like it. Its wishful thinking on my part but I hope these sell like hotcakes. Diesel option is interesting as well.
  10. Motor Trend is reporting prices ranging from 19K-32K. I was walking out of China Mart the other day and saw an older pre 97 Ford pickup and thought to myself that is the right sized pickukp. I wonder how the new Colly compares size wise to them. I know its too heavy already! 3950-4500 lbs is the estimate.
  11. Forget about gas mileage and capability for a moment. F150 starts at 24445. Tacoma starts at 17800. About 7 grand difference to be compelling when you dont need a F series. I am still plugging around in a 96 Sonoma that does everything I ask of it and is as handy as a pocket on a shirt. Where the new Gm trucks come in price wise is going to be a big deal to those really interested.
  12. I think it will depend on price and fuel economy. They already kicked themselves in the nuts with no reg cab for a bare bones price. I would cross shop it against a reg cab full size but thats me.
  13. According to this there is no regular cab. http://news.pickuptrucks.com/2013/11/2015-chevrolet-colorado-first-look.html I think it sucks but it is what it is.
  14. Money matters and they are making a mistake here imo by not offering the reg cab. Fleet people are going to wear out their Rangers sooner or later and need to replace them. Extended cab is nice but not worth the extra money to some. Normal buyers may be in the minority here by a long shot but I dont think fleet buyers will be.
  15. Looks pretty good to me. Interesting there is a floor shift but none on the full size. No reg cabs is a fail. It will be very interesting to see gas mileage numbers and it sounds like there will maybe be a stick shift on the base 4 banger.
  16. By the time his second term is over he will have run the deficit up more than all 43 Presidents combined before him!
  17. You have officially lost all of your marbles. I am the first person to jump on Ford for a bad product or launch but nothing they do can or have done even remotely compares to the epic failure known as Obama care. Nothing. There is nothing that the goverment can do better than the private sector because they have no incentive.
  18. Barack Hussein Obama is to speak at 11:30 EST to try to fix some of his lies about Ocare. The genie is out of the bottle and it cant put back in.
  19. That is my understanding as well. The train wreck is already in motion and cant be stopped at this point. Pretty bad when a popular ex Pres comes out and scolds BHO though. By the way, the goverment is counting those who just put a plan in their shopping carts as part of the 50K that signed up. Wonder how many actually payed?????
  20. Clinton to BHO: Keep your promise. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/11/12/clinton-to-obama-keep-obamacare-promise-let-americans-keep-what-got/
  21. Even a die hard lib has to find it suspicious when all of these plans are being canceled right when O care rolls out even if its only on 3 wheels. There is no argument here. Ocare is the reason for the cancellations.
  22. Preliminary numbers are in. 50K have signed up for O care so far and 4-5 million have lost their insurance. Out of the 50K nobody will say how many are young and healthy and how many are medicaid. You could not screw this up any worse if you tried. This is what happens when you elect a socialist with no experience running a dime store. This will go down as one of the biggest screw ups in history by the goverment. Now that is rolling the wheels are already coming off.
