Blue II Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 One word: Ranchero Honest to God, Ranchero. How about the first ever "Cross Over Non-Truck" (CUNT). Be patient, it's on the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2pintsplease Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 How about 30 mpg.... standard? I keep saying it, that the first vehicle maker to get a full sized truck or SUV achieve 30 mpg is going to be given a license to print $$$! -Ovaltine Do you really think that is possible? Even with the most gutless engine I think it would still use more gas than that because of the weight and the (lack of) aerodynamics. My Taurus was shaped like a bubble, weighed two thirds as much as a F150, and had a 3 liter V6, but still did only 28mpg. I know technology has changed but what your talking about defies the laws of physics. And Ford, please don't take this as a suggestion to build a (cough) hybrid, a truck needs to do work, and in 10 years all the electric bits in a hybrid will break doing a truck's work. The 4.4 TDV8 should be a good balance of performance and economy IMO, but 24mpg would be optimistic, I think. Nice thought though, I agree that 30mpg is a kind of threshold at which you stop caring about getting in the car for a drive; you don't think twice about making any trip.

Edstock Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 "if you want 30 mpg, buy an Aveo" I'd rather have a turbo-diesel Jaguar XJ, which gets close to 40 mpg, IIRC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

g48150 Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Be patient, it's on the way. What Ranchero, or CUNTs? Mainly cause I know where to get both, they're just old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtInTheZoo Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 How about seats that may not last 300,000 miles, but are comfortable for the first 300,000 miles? Yeah, the stains are a pain in the @$$, but the uncomfortable seats are a bigger pain in the @$$... Attractive factory wheels Stronger belly guards and rubber guards a HMS that doesn't leak HID's Flat-opening rear doors on the SCab's Match the Tacoma- Ford guys won't buy a GM for the most part, but they will consider the Toyota Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
