So 11.5” spring clearance sounds like a marketing ploy. Bs. You go by unsprung clearance. That’s the REAL clearance distance. Period. Always has been...

1994 Geo Metro XFi for its superb 75mpg highway terrorization. Or do I opt for the new 2022 white top Bronco Badlands? Choices...choices...

Wench?

Usually it’s the pumpkin to ground clearance.

For the record I was never talking about removing the manual globally. Just the big 3. I agree 100% with you on they should have MTs in everything. Far more efficient and reliable than a slush box. No matter the convenience. They should offer it in trucks to this day

Exactly. People want to spew reliability but know nothing about reliability. Find me a car made within last 10yrs (American) that got 300k on the odometer without a major repair or replacement. I’ll wait, in the 80s there was a reason Chevrolet acquired longest lasting trucks on the road...

Wrong. A 2000 VW Jetta TDI got 50mpg. A 90s geo metro got 50mpg. Both were ICE. Diesel engines are 30% more efficient than gas. They should’ve offered diesel with manual 7spd out the gate. Secondly they’re making engines simpler. Not the big 3, but outside America simpler far more efficient...

Ok IF that was the case, wouldn’t the dealer have less work to do? Less vehicles to repair? Go into a dealer to get anything done at 9am. See if they’ll get to you immediately. They won’t tell the public this, but if you think they’re making vehicles last? You know know manufacturing well...

I’ll be gone way before then. You’re entirely too optimistic and most certainly not informed. CAFE is by 2025. That would mean Bronco must get 54.5 mpg. I don’t care how you twist and turn it? No vehicles in 2025 is getting 54.5mpg with a 6spd manual. And they’re not making 10spd manuals are...

Ford offered the manual as a homage item. It’ll get phased out after 4 yrs which is when they change styles. 2025/26 Bronco will not look like today’s Bronco. Secondly what’s the % of manual Ts to 10spd? That will be your telling number. I KNOW that number will be extremely low. Most are going...

Thats exactly what every single person looks like when theyre waving vehicle specific like its a club. wave at me? Ill wave back. Hot girl? I'll wave to her. Seems every new vehicle thats breakout and most hyped by a company has these dumb waves. Should I wave? Should I close one eye, stick my...

I quit reading after this dumb statement. A vehicle is NEVER an investment. New ones arent anyways no matter how you try to spin it.

It's simple. Whats your plan for this? Joy ride? Mudding, or Rock/dirt road occasionally? Lease for 3 yrs low miles but hard miles. (no matter, under warranty) Pay the price and never get rid of it and not worried about keeping up with the Joneses.

That’s the only way you’re getting that treatment with big 3 is if you’re either working within or you spent $500k+ on vehicles. So regardless. It’s moot because 90% won’t get that sort of treatment. Aka bragger lol

Exactly my point. You’re not getting that kind of treatment with Ford. EVER! Your going apples to oranges here. You think that grease monkey at a Ford dealer gives a crap about who you are?

Curious what company comes pick up your vehicles on flatbed? Can’t be one of the he big 3....

Yea but the horror stories from idiots at dealers is terrifying. Not to mention cheap oil from dealer. I can save $30 and be done in a half hr doing it myself with MUCH better oil/ filter than a dealer. Plus your time is longer sitting at a dealer. This way, I know it’s fine right, less time and...

80% of bronco buyers will have mentality of climbing mountains with it. Reality is theyll never set off pavement unless its an unpaved driveway

Yea...so I’ll be seeing you panhandle at the corner when warranty work/repairs are needed?

Mt 2010 Camaro 2SS indexes. I live in Louisiana, so cant say what exactly would happen in cold? But I would think indexing isnt an issue unless sat frozen and window wont go down because at the window molding itd be frozen itd def stop from indexing. Heres an opinion stating its not good for...
