They are keeping their cards close and playing them very carefully for a reason. What you know, and what you will find out are still miles apart. This is going to be a huge part of fords future. They know it too.
Let us also not forget, the body panel modularity. Things are subject to change. I heard through the grape vine. More weight shedding was on the agenda for the "raptor" version. To offest other weight gains. Some things beefed up, other using potentially "exotic" materials. Take that with a...
I do believe I stated before, the whole first year of production is already accounted for. Thats what I had heard from a friend thats an insider. Awesome for ford. Thats a lot of interest in a vehicle that is so niche in nature.
My understanding is that industry standard is e15 capable across the board. E85 is slowing support, not sure why, but e15 blends net some benefits too. I would rather get a tuner with 3 modes, stock, eco, performance. Something that can be switched in moments notice.
For those questioning the top color. When black plastic has a shine it looks more grey. When the tooling has been finalized it will have the surface dulled, either acid ecthing or media blasting. Its pretty interesting to watch the acid create texture. Media blasting just roughs the surface up a...
With the suspension trickery this thing has, the drive line, gear ratios... there's absolutely no reason you can't pull 5k with it. Even if they leave the rating at 3500lbs. My only concern would be the hitch itself. But, two 1/4" thick plates, welded to the hitch, that followed the crossmember...
More recent late model cars have less valuable cats on them, the cats people want are late 90s to 2010ish they had more precious metals in them. Not that new cars are off the table. But the quick buck is off something like an 01 super duty with the v10. Several hundred dollars for those. The...
I want a silver top on black. My dad had a 79 like that growing up. Miss that thing.
So whenever I do get one. Thats the plan. Paint the top silver. 2 inch, and 37s
I know what you have been after, we have participated in a lot of threads together lol. Honestly, the shocks are amazing. The diff may come as limited slip. In your case id opt to change them to torsens maybe.
I agree, I anticipated more info to be shared. But it will come out with automotive media outlets. It is awesome though, I can say that with utter confidence, it is better than the competition stock for stock.
More or less, thats to prevent damage from people who dont know how to use it properly, of for when the sensors say "whoa, this isnt right, something is gonna give!"
Hybrid is in the works from what I've been told. 2020 as a whole, has fudged a lot of things up for everyone. But from what I was told, it was never going to be a first year option. They did plan for it though, the reserved space between the frame rails for a small battery.
