I could do without the “future fords may have this feature” articles everyday 😆

But will they have more on this soon?

Maybe he just forgot what it was like to drive a car and doesn't want to go back to a truck or SUV.

Say it ain't so.... close to 800 UAW members going to get a 6 week Thanksgiving & Chirstmas vacation. I know let's build all electric (progressive) units and the left wing will just make for a huge demand. Right.... Happy Times for the just barely IUAW prez now maybe call a strike at another American manufacturer.  

11 year old thread. Might want to start a new one?  

Scary..I have a 23 5.0 150.  Just what is an "axle bolt"?  As for your dealer GM, I can't imagine a guy in his position would say that to a customer.    And how many miles did you have on it when they refused to replace it because it was a "recall issue now".  So did you get the final fix?

I believe Farley said the goal for these affordable EVs is to be profitable within the first year of production. When it comes to price, it's worth noting that just like anything related to technology and engineering, it constantly improves. If there's one thing I know due to my experiences with a family of engineers, it's that engineers are constantly better themselves, and their work. If you give talented engineers enough time, freedom, and resources, they'll do things that genuinely amaze you.    So while a 30k EV may have been less feasible a decade ago when the model 3 was in development, the entire game has changed since then. 

Yeah, that would be impressive. Of course, this is just pure speculation. But that's going off of Farley saying in an interview about how desirable affordable EVs with good styling and around 300 miles of range would appeal to a broader audience. Who knows if it'll hit those targets, but that sounds promising coming directly from the CEO. 

$5200 is pretty steep. Especially since labor and tires are not included. Below are the individual prices. I couldn’t find the tire carrier on ford performance but I think the regular one is around $700, so they are giving you a slight discount for the package. Grille Letters -$110 ford badge - $60 Wheels - $1655 calibration - $825 level kit - $1900 flares - $555 tire carrier - ?   However, you can buy these parts significantly cheaper elsewhere. For example, I found the wheels for $1200, the calibration for $700, the letters and badges for $40, etc. You don’t get the warranty coverage if you go that route though.   I wonder if the ford performance 25% off coupon will apply to this package. Dropping it down to $3900 makes it much more attractive.
