  1. This!! The "end to end" battery pack concept is why EV's are typically more than their ICE counterparts
  2. Just a hunch, but my guess is the 6.7L Gas Cummins will crater similar to when GM diesel-fied the 350 Oldsmobile motor back in the late 70's, early 80's. It may be a good diesel, but it don't think it will translate to a good gas motor. Only my opinion.
  3. I seriously considered a Crown as my next daily as I yearn to get back into a sedan, but at the end of the day, I just couldn't pull the trigger to buy a Toyota....I hope Ford (or Lincoln) will bring back a proper sedan.
  4. What happened to the plant? Sold? Demolished? Sorry to see stuff like this
  5. Geez...2027??!?!? That is a damn shame to idle one of Fords best performing and high quality plants for 3 years....
  6. My Broncos were great with the windows down on the highway....my Explorer does well around town with the windows down and the moonroof wide open.....love to ride/drive like that.
  7. I had a 4 cyl Foxbody that I sold before I put in on the road, and then bought V6 Foxbody that I swapped in a proper 302 V8....gotta have a V8, but if I was buying it for a daily...I would consider the EB
  8. This kind of publicity is nothing new for Ford.... https://www.dailymail.co.uk/travel/travel_news/article-4048936/The-female-Indiana-Jones-Fascinating-images-capture-adventures-1920s-traveller-visited-80-countries-Model-T-Ford.html
  9. As always, it is sometimes good to vent - but you are blaming the workers for an issue that even you admit is FoMoCo's fault. I hope you get your situation rectified but no one would blame you if you went to the GMC dealership and gave them some biz.
  10. https://community.cyanlabs.net/t/swap-mkz-ecoboost-instrument-cluster-to-fusion-hybrid/4681
  11. CD4 is a dead man walking. Any future development would move to C2.
  12. Extending Edge by 6 months would give Ford the breathing room it needs as it sounds like the "EV plan" is still in flux right now...just gotta loop in UNIFOR so the speculation is kept to a minimum.
  13. I have a buddy that has an older Limited...nice truck, but I will keep my XL F150 and drive my Explorer TImberline when I want something nicer.
  14. I know a certain plant in Canada that could benefit by being refitted to C2 production....
  15. I am glad to see the Blue Oval back in the mast head.
  16. I see a modern iteration of the Edsel front end which, btw, I like.
  17. They'll bring the Challenger nameplate back on a two door version of Hornet.
