Impressive Q4 and 2024 sales, especially for Lincoln. I'm not too overly concerned about the recent December sales compared to 2023. So many factors and circumstances to make it alarming. I'm just glad to see Lincoln is doing well as well as many other Fords. I'm hoping and sure 2025 will add on to the success of 2024. I do think the 'CE1' skunkworks products may be revealed at some point this year, though possibly in concept form. Speaking of which, I wonder about this coming Detroit Auto Show. Seeing how some of us are talking about potential future Ford products coming in the next few years, has anyone heard whether Ford plans on revealing anything this Friday in Detroit? I'm guessing not since they haven't done any social media tease about it lately. I can't find an actual schedule on the Detroit Auto Show website other than the general 'media day' on Friday from 9am-1pm.

Well I bought a Back Rack for my 04 Ranger and it served me well with loads of heavy PT 2 x 6's, 8's etc. When I was considering a new Ranger replacement I went to Back Racks website and was surprised to find they didn't list one..couldn't understand that.   Guess I understand now.  How short sided can you be.   PS. Dummy me, one day I jump in the Ranger, hit the "open door" button and start backing out  without verifying door was all the way up..destroyed bottom panel-and this was a heavy insulated door-Back Rack was just fine.

Toys for the uber wealthy that want something unique.  At least the 911 Dakar has actual race heritage

Flood Ford

My b2b warranty on our 2022 F350 is about to expire. Where is the best price / place to CURRENTLY buy an extended warranty?

Yea...   The last Civic to be fully designed and for sale before CAFE footprint rule came into effect was the 9th gen (2011-2015) and the footprint was about 42 sq ft. If Honda had kept the Civic at the same size, it will have a 60 MPG CAFE target in 2025.    

If Ford won't build it, the aftermarket will  

I don’t really care for either of those. 

Frankly, I don't understand the jacked up sports car trend like the Lamborghini or Porsche, and by extension, the talk of such a Mustang model.

Just on the jacked up Mustang, the blow back from research was absolutely savage. I don’t know whether they were targeting the wrong group or people have a defined image of what Mustang is as a heritage name…
