So the problem with that is people who are leasing the vehicle, what incentive do they have turn their vehicle in if they already have...

Not that easy, you need an approved certificate to talk to the ECU. That means going through Ford to get it approved.

People are forgetting the basics here-a Electric motor is far more efficient in delivering power then an ICE is. An EV motor only loses...

Your just moving the goal posts now. You never meet emissions standards with it either. But hey isn't that the whole point of moving...

Right tool for the right job I say. EVs are fantastic for commuting and super efficient HVAC wise. I can run full blast AC for days...

Still have mine and just under 16K on it now. Haven't had any major mechanical issues with it.

Don't tell me what to do! :p

Yep mine does it, comes off no problem though

stupid name and stupid AI generated art LOL

Yep, but its mostly a Ocean/Monmouth beaches thing. Further south (LBI and Wildwood) they are called Shoobies from the people who came...

damn its still using a manual transmission, suprised they didn't drop an auto in it, but I guess manuals are in more cars in the Far East?1

When I was going through mechanic school in the Army about 30 years ago, one of my civilian instructors claimed that the Gamma Goat was...

I don't know about that...a modified/updated M715 known as Kia/Hyundai K311 cargo truck is still in use today...

What is wrong with the Maverick? I've haven't heard anything outside of the fuel tank recall. Remember the Maverick is supposed to be...

You need to remember one thing: YOU BOUGHT A BASE - WITH TECH LAYERED IN TO GET YOU UP TO THE "$70k" You DID NOT buy a new Defender...

Average cost of a new car is like $48-50K right now. Small is hard to nail down-something around the size of the Escape or Bronco...

Completely different market at this time. Rivian also stopped production of its new factory in GA to give them more time to avoid going...

In the end, the dealers are the customers of Ford - not us. 90 day supply is on the upper end of healthy. The 350+ days supply of the...

In all seriousness, why are you talking about people who where hired 50+ years ago? The automotive industry has changed quite a bit in...

Make of it what you want, but https://blog.evbox.com/fast-charging-battery...
