Yeah I like like your's lower down there - the stock setup is up high and requires drilling into the mod bumper. I made sure the dealer knew that I didn't want that. I was worried about going w/o the front plate on the Alfa 5 years ago. I stopped at a construction site one time in it. Cop starts...
I think the front end is so nice that the plate distracts from the visuals. The cops don't care - hardly any new Vette's have them on. I have a 2017 Alfa Giulia and the front plate would mess up the looks. But if you don't mind ... that's cool .... live free or die!
I'm very happy with my BD, 7/17/2020 reservation, got it last Tuesday. Looks just right to me. I obsessed for the last year and a half about color and wheels. I wanted a retro look and it looks great with the Steelies! 18.4 mph not going over 50 mph so far, 130 miles .... not so great but mph...
Wow, I guess I'm lucky then, my rez was 7/17/2020. Order converted October 2021, built on Jan 13 2022 and showed up at the dealer (Walls Ford Salisbury MA) Jan 24 .... ETA was Feb 3. Black Diamond, soft top, mid package, 2.7L, tow package. Originally had the hardtop but I changed it before the...
Yes! I'm an avid rc plane flyer and have a DJI Mavic 2 Pro. Also FAA 107 certified. Today's equipment is incredible. DJI is like Apple in it's seamless performance.
Please fly your drone responsibly .... I hate how bad behaviour there spills over into government over reach into the benign...
I gave up and bought a 2021 Subaru Outback Touring XT with a 260-hp WRX engine in it. Day after the deflection corporate email hit. Tows 3500 # if I am so inclined. $40K. It's really comfortable and has a thigh extender on the driver's seat. I was driving a used base Subie Forester 6 spd manual...
All this electronic stuff .... geez. I would love a base model with the MGV seats, 33-in tires and that's it. Maybe there will be a way to do that. Kind of like a modern trail/surf rig.
Their indifference and "let them eat cake" attitude motivated me to spend $40K on a new vehicle. I bought it and took delivery yesterday. I have decided to move on. If my rez comes in I can make a decision then.
My dealer said they ordered 6 and they all show as "scheduled" status on Ford's...
Ford concentrated on telling us and the market how good they were doing on EV products and all that. Sucking up to what they perceive as the sweet spot for the next 10 years of enthusiastic buyers. And corporate business media. And the board I suppose - who signs the fat cats' paychecks.
I...
Exactly - why couldn't they fess up vs the long winded BS in that letter. Oh heck, just answering my own question. Typical corporate shine-ola wordsmithing - they love sniffing each other's butts ... I'm car shopping tomorrow, in stock vehicles only. Will take a look at the Sport, Subie, and VW...
This is turning out as bad as possible. I used to work at a Ford supplier and have some inside info. They basically picked the wrong supplier and would have been a challenge without the pandemic lockdown and everything else. Then throw on TOP of that (ha ha) .... a more complex and aim high...
They are dumping bad news on a Friday afternoon to limit the impact to the stock, giving us the weekend to get over it. I just shorted the stock and hope to make enough money to buy a Bronco T-shirt .... hope they have stock of that.
