hooo boy there’s myriad ways to answer that. Start with more trimming of corporate fat. Jim Hackett didn’t go nearly as far as he should have with that.
Thats laughable. The CCP won’t swallow their pride and take the L and it’s going to crush their economy. It’s already starting with several major Chinese banks going insolvent this week.
Two things about that. 2k isn’t as much as it probably could be and at least it isn’t a blanket increase across the board like some companies are doing.
Zero interest for me. I know too many people who have been seriously injured and nearly killed riding motorcycles through no fault of their own. One couple I know each lost limbs because someone was driving on the wrong side of the road and forced them off the highway. Another was hit by someone while he was waiting at a red light. Flew 50 feet across a parking lot, shattered his pelvis had a serious concussion, broke his leg in 3 places. He still can’t walk right almost 10 years later. People drive like absolute morons and it’s not getting any better.
not entirely. I’m willing to bet the doors, swing gate, floor pan(s) and dash (firewall) could all be used for both Bronco and Lincoln, not to mention the front structure pieces already shared between Ranger and Bronco.
I was scrolling through social media this morning and saw a clip from Doug DeMuro regarding this. The point was brought up that the G-Class is a significant seller for Mercedes and a lot of it is because of its retro styling built around capability, essentially what the Bronco already is. Seems like it could be easy for Lincoln to make a luxury version without coming across as phony.
