  1. Right, like not being able to get a sunroof on anything lower than a Titanium, ST or RS....
  2. Being that currently merely having a key in the ignition (whether or not the vehicle is running is irrelevant) is considered drunk driving, then yes.
  3. It's still a few years away and I can already hear the whining and bitching
  4. Thank you, that's very comforting to hear, especially since your sources tend to be very reliable.
  5. To your first question, yes to the extent that if there was a repair already needed they fix it, the 100 or so that are in inventory now won't be rechecked, they've been declared ready to ship once the Ok has been given. Every car built gets a VIN. Period. Even prototypes the Pilot plant builds.
  6. My buddy who is still at FRAP mentioned the other day that they've resolved a lot of the issues they were having and they can focus more on maintaining and improving quality. They're still waiting for the OK to ship.
  7. Nope, the Fiesta is the single most important thing in the entire company. Certainly much more important than the F-series.
  8. They're playing a delicate balancing act with the build mix at FRAP. Any more export volume might lead to a third shift and with the market softening here at home, that might not be the wisest investment right now.
  9. I'm not a huge fan of either dash to be honest Though gun to my head, I would take the Expy. I can't stand GM interiors. Never have.
  10. I don't remember, it was before I started really paying attention to the industry, but wasn't there a price advantage for the GM trio?
  11. and all 3 of those can be addressed with current or updated versions of current platforms
  12. No duh the Sport is going to be heavier, the engine alone weighs more than any of the I4 offerings....
  13. I don't think so here, but my (limited) understanding of the Australian market is there's not really a whole lot of room for lineup expansion. At this point for North America is whether or not the market is big enough for further lineup expansion beyond what's out now or due to be out by Q4 2017.
  14. Then maybe the Bronco slides in as the next gen Everest?
  15. From what little can be seen, front end looks to be borrowed more from the Explorer, tail lights look like the Flex to me
  16. That's a pretty big bomb there. Care to share where you heard that nugget?
  17. Balderdash. It was very good so long as you didn't want to turn.
  18. Are there any plants where they run 3 shifts that isn't on AWS?
  19. So basically the plants with trades on AWS are the plants running 3 shifts of production
