So how are we to know what Ford’s plans are if they are continually changing them?
While it’s not hard to map out possible products and put your own spin on what’s likely, all of that can go out the window if Ford goes in another direction because they’ll take a bath on costs or some other sourcing or shipping issue.
Economy is getting tougher and it feels like more people will be cautious with new vehicle purchases but then, Theres probably another group above them that’s less affected……it’s a hard read this year, I’m glad we have this place to discuss things and how Ford copes with change.
Yeah, he does seem to be all over the place. I believe members like Fuzzy, JPD, and Explorerdude are a lot more consistent in the info they leak to us.
He has a weird personality disorder-he basically throws shit against the wall to see if it sticks
It was also part of the reason he got booted here because he was wrong more often then not.
I perused a CX-90 when I was shopping for a hybrid last year....my need aligned closer to the CX-50 but I would've considered a CX-70 which is basically a CX-90 without the third row seating. But then it was kinda big for a 5 seat CUV....in the end, I bought a 2025 Maverick Lariat hybrid - trading in the 2023 Explorer Timberline. The Maverick gave me the flexibility to get rid of my 2005 F150 so I saved even more $$ by not having to insure two vehicles.
Which isn't bad. It has that blocky look but is a little more rounded for areo. The clay reminds me vaguely of things like the super chief or interceptor concepts by having that singular, blocky graphic that goes across the entire front end. It gives it a more muscular look which I can get behind.
