No, as I said, there has been more written about EVs, than any other subject which comes to mind. My comments on EVs is (was) a lampoon on the subject and nothing more.

I probably shouldn't add to the fray, but I am! We've just seen Carlos Tavares resign from Stellantis, essentially for poor sales results especially for their Chrysler division (and some of their other brands as well). Certainly part of the issue is the grossly-mistaken jump (more like a leap...

Well, they did take out the 5.0 and the flag under them, but that doesn't excuse them from copyright infringement. Yes, ask your lawyer, but the truth is, even if you win the award will not be worth the effort. Unless of course, it is an ego thing which is the reason in the first place. My...

Sorry, but all of this, seems to me, a lot of work just to hear a louder din while out for a road trip! I might be wrong, but I thought road trips were supposed to be a serene way to relax from the din, hustle and bustle of city life?

I haven't camped for many years, but if I were to do so today, I certainly wouldn't strap a tent top on my Mustang! Making things worse, there isn't anything on the car to attach the straps, clip, clamps, etc. to hold it down. Fact is, the way almost all passenger vehicles are made these days...

Your friendly Ace Hardware in the Metric nut drawer.

It's Morse code for... Get you ... in here! Not really, but it's the same cadence as the dum de dum when you get in.

This is a true statement: Paddles in drag mode, cars an animal. It is also true of the Eco-Boost too!

Arguing about car stereo is about as fruitful as talking politics! Nonetheless, there are a few interesting parallels one can draw between car stereos and those at home. First, if we could reverse their positions (car to home and home to car) not one person would be happy! Next, comparing...

I wonder about that too. I confess I don't know how Ford measures the fuel level, nor where the fuel sender is mounted. The logical place is in the center of the tank, but that is not always true. Imagine having it close to one side, and if fuel starvation only happen on left turns... You get...

This doesn't sound like a traction control issue, I think it's fuel starvation. I say this, after watching a video about the GTD. The engineer remarked that it had 'special' baffling in the fuel tank to stop fuel starvation during high G cornering. This makes me wonder what, if any, baffling...

I admit I'm not a super-duper Audiophile. I don't listen to Dolly straining her vocal cords! In fact, the morning show with Mike Winters on KEND talk radio is enough. However, listening to surround sound (Ford's' rendition) is passable about as much as a decent sound bar is. Even the low end is...

Maybe they'll call it the Pinto model?

If you don't have a rattle, but want one, leave the back seats down!

I believe Ford should make the GT ventilated hood an extra-cost item for the Eco-Boost. Are you guys game? I've looked around for a smashed or bashed 2024 GT with a decent hood, but haven't found one. A new hood, replete with the necessary mounting and latching parts, hovers around $1,600 plus...

Mine stayed in the garage. My wonderful neighbors invited me to their family bash, and we never once mentioned cars, nor guns, nor anything else, but how nice it was to visit friends and neighbors. Anyway you look at it, cars are nice, guns are nice, but nothing in the world beats family...

Yes, you get the first year or two oil changes for free.... If you pay for them! Don't kid me about this issue, as my son-in-law worked for BMW. Sounds good on paper, but in reality, squat!

I've never owned a Bemmer, and I never will. Yes they go like stink (as long as any E32 can!), but they're one of the priciest vehicles to own. It is bad enough paying $125 for an oil and filter on my Ranger, but $500+ on a Bimmer? No chance Sherlock!! Oh! BMW has used the same signature grill...

Ford's latest yellow might be grow on me, but the previous yellow reminded me of being a parent of a new born in diapers!

Age has nothing to do with it! With proper tools, you spent about the same tire as a certified mechanic would have.
