So they are walking the walk and talking the talk. That gets you nothing!

It would not be a Ford Bronco Sport but a model based on a Chinese new energy vehicle architecture. According to the latest information, both BEV models and Range-Extended EV will be available.  

Another one   Ford recalls over 694,000 SUVs in US after year-long fuel leak probe     I just checked my Wife's BS and it doesn't seem like is affected by it but it was also a later production 2024    

Completely agree personal responsibility matters. Blaming manufacturers for reckless behaviour sets a dangerous precedent. Tort reform is long overdue.

Ford makes ridiculous decisions that customers notice.  I for one want the badging.  I haven’t heard many say they want them removed.     In respect to the Platinum, they are really diminishing the value of the trim.  There aren’t substantial differences between it and the Limited.    I saw a 2025 Platinum without the quad tailpipes which looked the same as the Active I drive for work.  I presume it’s the model with the 2.3l but it did not have a premium look.  

Coal-fired power plants have essentially been regulated out of existence in the United States. It isn't the free-market causing the issue...

So, as Bart Simpson said, "You're damned if you do; you're damned if you don't." It's adapters for everyone. I'm happy with my Tesla adapter.  

Nautilus ICE is way more powerful in addition to aerodynamics.

Is the Toyota more aerodynamic/smaller frontal area then the Nautilus though? That would account for why it does better at higher speeds MPG wise then the Nautilus.  A larger/heaver vehicle would also suffer around town due to needing more power/torque to move it from a stop then a smaller vehicle. 

Going by the interior (the C2 style arm rest/center console) it will be roughly the same size as an Escape or Edge...I'm assuming it will be ever so slightly smaller then a 4 door Bronco-in the 185 inch range.
