So...the Lordstown plant was on "Cruze control"?

I can't wait to see what the Opel and Vauxhall versions look like...should be "over the top"

You're such a tease.....

T speed rated tires was the O.E. rating on the 2006 Fusion SE...I used to sell tires and have been to Michelins tire plant in South Carolina twice...they make a damn fine tire...but back to your question...when you put higher (or lower for that matter) speed rated tires than O.E., you will change the handling characteristics of the vehicle at lower speeds as well as the listed "limit" of the tire....a car will handle, ride, corner, and brake quite differently when you deviate from the OE speed recommendation...sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse...since my car (since traded) had T speed rated tires on it and I was satisfied with the performance....I wanted to stay in that range, hence why I didn't get the Firestones.

Wondering if anyone would consider going to Mexico, retrieving a quad cab and doors and returning to the US for installation onto their own Ranger?

Keeping fingers crossed that BORG does not add MyLincoln touch to his walk behind mower as well.....

If I can get a medium sized pickup truck in a quad cab configuration with my beloved Ford logo on it...I would in a minute....but the F150 is too big and too thirsty for my needs and desires.

If you like this, wait until they roll out the GMC Jimny, Buick Autoclave, and Cadillac TXZS-V+ versions....

My first car was a 1970 LTD Brougham 2 door formal roof in dark green with a black vinyl top.....it was an awesome car, until the rotted frame rail that I missed when I checked the car out (youthful exuberance) broke while I was trying to do a hole shot in front of my buddies house.....replaced that car with a 1969 LTD XL sports roof.....damn those cars were huge!

XTS Job#1 is now on order.....some guy named after a villainous race of beings from a famous science fiction television show is rumored to be that customer.

My link Translation = "I will take category, 'Kiss of Death' for $2000, Alex."

You are too busy looking at your MyLincoln Touch screen......

Alert the media!!! Someone put a call in to T-Stag, STAT!!!!

fordmantpw...you are nominated for POTW!

I remember when our television (25" dia. giant screen console, not the cheap-o 23" version) had two knobs and I WAS MY FATHERS REMOTE CONTROL.....get up, twist the channel from 2 to 3, then to 5, on to 9....rotate past UHF (because public access sucks) and back to channel 2...once he decided what he wanted, then I had to turn the volume control up for him.....he had it all down to hand signals...never said a word....and he owned a television store (Zenith) back in those days too!

I am glad to see that Ford is once again moving away from "The Corporate Grille" design whereas all cars in the line must have the same type of grille style.....

My 2012 Fusion SEL has a single disc in it...no problem-o here, I just moved my music library to a USB thumb drive and access my music via SYNC...it is actually kinda cool. "Play artist: Frank Sinatra".....BOOM! Ole Blue Eyes comes right up and belts out "Night and Day"......"Play artist: Gordon Lightfoot." POW! The Great Lakes balladeer croons out "Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" in a flash....

With the restyled grille, you can do (or say) just about anything....get your hairdryers out and remove the logo from the hood and run down to the local Auto Zone for some applique letters in chrome to spell out what you really want to say .... Or simply get a Ford Oval and place it in the middle, but if it were me, I would probably "off center" it to match the rear oval...

Crown Victoria, Town Car and Ranger.....oh, wait....

They were following then CEO Jacques "Jac the Knife" nASSers' mantra....get rid of big trucks and buy euro-trash.....

I am thinking that you will not be satisfied unless Alan Mulally himself hand delivers the flash drive to you personally....

Nah..... :reading:

Yeah, but now that Steve Jobs is gone, the "connectivity issue" has resolved itself.

There ya go...fixed.

This if Fiat still owns Chrysler in 2015.
