A new version of the Twin Traction Beam would be interestingly different....but, they were a service nightmare back in the day and would need extensive servicing every 30K....

Jeez....It's getting down to "just pour some plain machine oil in" and call it a day... 

That is a pretty bold claim-just look at the Bronco and Maverick launches a few years back.    if the demand is there, dealerships will charge an ADM on a product to make more. They are entities that exist to make a profit, not be nice    The new ZR1X costs $207K and I've seen reports of $125-135K ADMs on them. If you go with the quail silver package that is apparently limited, add another 20K to that.   Why didn't they sell it the same way Ford did with the GTD? 

Just bought daughter a 2026 Rav4 hybrid and it takes 0W-8 engine oil. I have never heard of anything less than 0w-20.  I know it's for fuel economy but this seems one step away from water.   Anything else use super thin oil?

Ultimately, that only benefits Ford.  Not every dealer is a parasite. Some have integrity and appreciate their customers by charging MSRP or less on specialty vehicles.  Assuming you are correct, now everyone gets the “ADM”. 

Well, a crew cab with an 8' bed is pretty much usless off road, but if that's what the mall cruiser crowd wants than Ford should offer it.  The XL off road package sounds interesting.   Ford should design a good 4X4 IFS for the Super Duty.

Just took delivery of 2026  Aviator. We purchases this for more interior room for our grandchildren. Third row seat is very disappointing. My 5 year old struggled to get back to the third row . The biggest problem the second floor seats don’t fully flip up . Can’t believe Ford/Lincoln engineers couldn’t figure out a better design . Just search the internet & found this is an on going issue that Ford/ Lincoln know exists. I should have researched this better . I am going to see if I can have rear console removed & carpet replaced .

I don't think he ever said there was no market.  I think he said or meant that Ford couldn't make money with their current products.

Mach-e but even better looking. The mach-e is already a really good looking crossover. A next gen that was a little leaner, lower, wider would make for a striking vehicle.
