Trader 10

That 29 mpg was obtained by driving for maximum economy in a manner few drivers will use. The EPA estimate is 24. Doubtful the Ranger will be able to reach above 30 mpg, but even 28 from a pickup that large would be great mileage.

Maybe PREMiERdrum will comment on this. I’m interested in his perspective.

When the the new Unifor contract was reached in September the press releases stated that BEV production would begin in 2024. That’s would be 36 to 42 months or more from now- way too early for a prototype this advanced. Looks like a model that will be ready for production in a year or less.

And that’s my point. All those Toyotas and Hondas that are being sold in the U.S. are filling the coffers of Japanese companies.

No matter where they’re built, Toyotas, Hondas, Subarus, etc. are not American and never will be. Most are designed and engineered in Japan. Those that claim they’re somehow “American” are deluding themselves.

106 K on my 2015 Edge with the 2.0. No issues what so ever. It’s a great engine.

He 2.3 has been out long enough that any similar issue would have been exposed by now.

Yes- and no complaining about the 1.5.

5 1/2 weeks stuck at home will do that I’m sure. I feel your pain.

Guess I needed to post a sarcasm alert.

Even the Flex (118) outsold it. And not a single Bronco sale!!

I think that anyone counting on the Maverick being significantly cheaper than the Escape will be disappointed.

Come on akirby - you know that’s not apples/apples - the kayak has to knock at least a couple of mpg’s off the 2009’s rating.

Happy Thanksgiving to all the BON family. Hope you all have plenty to be thankful for. I sure do.
