  1. I don’t want to say any more beyond I’ve heard rumors. The only reason I mentioned the flat rock thing to begin with was because it’s publicly available information that was shared in the 2023 UAW agreement. If/when the company is ready to announce something I’ll comment further.
  2. I’ve heard some rumors, but I’ll leave it at that because there’s nothing concrete.
  3. if you’re shopping 100% on budget like a ton of people do, you’re not paying attention to that
  4. If you’re shopping purely on budget, when you can get a lease on a Ranger for the same monthly payment as a better equipped F-150, why would you choose a Ranger? I’m willing to bet most people would choose the F-150.
  5. My flex is just as bad. I have terrible luck with windshields. Every vehicle I’ve ever owned has needed a replacement at one point or another. Best decision I ever made was adding window coverage to my insurance. Only costs me a $100 deductible and most places around here will pay that so it ends up being nothing out of pocket for me.
  6. Yeah I’m aware of what the specs are, but seeing is believing. I’ve sat in both and there is a difference even though the physical dimensions say otherwise.
  7. This isn’t entirely accurate. They basically modified the Ranger cab to fit on the Bronco underbody, which resulted in better legroom for rear seat passengers. also, not a refresh. Completely different program number.
  8. It was never happening to begin with. I hate how that stupid clickbait website got that much attention for that.
  9. That would be a HUGE investment into MAP. The body shop would probably have to expand.
  10. Sounds like another fancy electronic gizmo that doesn’t add anything except yet another thing that can fail to me.
  11. Yeah but Ford already did that 5 years ago. GM is kind of in the process of starting that now.
  12. The Chinese government has no fucks to give, they have no problem with subsidizing their entire industry if they have to. Works well for their propaganda machine.
  13. Im at the point where the less technological gizmos, the better. Give me Sync 3/4, a decent variety of information in the instrument cluster and power windows/seats and I’m good with that. Unfortunately for me nobody will build what I want without waiting ungodly amounts of time for them to get around to scheduling it, if it even gets built in the first place.
  14. You’re thinking of Hermosillo where Maverick is already being built. Cuactitlan builds Mach-E.
  15. I think they bought one of the presses to test out at some R&D facility in Dearborn but no Ford stamping facility currently has one in operation and AFAIK there aren’t currently any plans to have any installed.
  16. Because your UAW overlords demand it of you
  17. Because you’re like me and are unnecessarily anal about how your music is organized.
  18. I saw an interesting mini-doc about that. That all started when Boeing merged with McDonnell-Douglas. The two cultures clashed completely and because the executives at McDonnell ended up with more control over the board their corporate culture ended up weeding out the Boeing culture.
