And that is my point. The fired up nut jobs turn out at primaries and too many don't pay attention and they stay home. Trump didn't have the stones to debate Haley..he figured he didn't have to. And he was running against the weakest ticket ever. He got a lot of Dems and Independent votes, not as votes for him, but as votes against two clueless people.
Too many people stayed home instead of voting in the primaries.
It’s interesting that Lucid’s financial stability was highlighted. I wonder how being an outsider will impact the House’s leadership and future decisions.
Same guys tested an old Ford V10 Super Duty without balance shaft (rotating) to prove it won’t “blow up”. Never heard that myth so not sure how widespread it is. Apparently some don’t understand what balance shafts do. Obviously their 4-valve V10 does not have one. Wonder if original Ford V10 prototypes with 4-valve heads also deleted the balance shaft?
I'm loath to enter what has become a political discussion, but will add this: the primary system is broken. Both party's primaries cater to their fringe/extremist elements (both sides of which have figured out they can influence the outcome of their respective party's nomination in vast disproportion to their % of the electorate), resulting in essentially an impossibility that either party will select a more centrist candidate, instead selecting a candidate that, of necessity, must court that party's fringe/extremist element to win the nomination. Both parties need to, but won't, determine a way to correct this imbalance. Until they do, we'll get nominees, that as DeluxeStang wrote "So it kinda felt like picking between two STD's."
Since its pretty apparent you guys didn't watch the video, they used a front end subframe from a S550 Mustang to fit the V10 into.
Otherwise they would have actually fit a Conti body shell over another platform, which would prob have been even more work.
Not as easy as body on frame, but the same way they built fusion and edge on the same platform. Or escape and focus. Fiesta and Ecosport. Explorer and Taurus.
Out of curiosity, because the Continental is a unibody, and the cd6 explorer is a unibody, how would you go about doing that? Or if you wanted to take the frame of an older body on frame explorer and slot that under a modern Continental body.
I was under the impression that with unibody cars, because the chassis and frame were essentially this combined unit, that you couldn't put the body of a modern car on another chassis like you could back in the day when everything was body on frame where it was a lot easier to pull a frame and a body apart.
But if it is possible to do that, that would be quite cool, I didn't even know that was an option. The more you know.
I never got any update msg on the truck when I had a tranny TSB done on my Ranger, just a note on the repair bill saying in part that a refresh had been done.
