Yes. Huuuuge safety issues with this car, but they can be resolved by staying under a certain weight. So before you take delivery, Ford is going to weigh and take "center of gravity" data on each owner, their family, and every potential driver and passenger and you'll have to sign off that...
This is directed at the small but growing number of people moaning about their list of complaints and perceived injustices related to the Bronco rollout.
What if you never knew the Bronco was coming? What if a dozen different Broncos just showed up at the local dealership one day, stickers on...
Really? It's built on the Ranger chassis? You mean the one that comes out in 2023, and is being built on the Bronco chassis?
Take out the things that weren't engineered for the Bronco, it would be an underivable vehicle. I challenge you to name all the parts that are "parts bin" on this...
What Ford is doing has no roadmap, in a time when all the prior practices and procedures were thrown out the window at exactly the most inopportune time. Most of that is still in effect today.
Throw in resurrecting a hallowed badge, meeting the expectations of purists and paying homage to the...
On the one hand, I have trouble believing that the ONLY way one can get a new Bronco is by making an online reservation. There has to be at least SOME dealer allocation, if nothing else for the purpose of show and tell.
Likely not in the first shipment, likely not in the first month of...
Both of these are absolutely unacceptable - it's so easy to do it correctly and have it look and read perfectly, it's almost as if someone intentionally third-graded it. If that's what the dealer thinks is their flagship representation to their customer base, I'd be looking for another dealer -...
Analog is more quickly interpreted by the brain. That's why even the most advanced glass cockpits generally have an analog display (coupled with a digital embed for exact accuracy) - pilot workload and information overload is a real thing, and there are plenty of studies about it that guide...
I don't know how surprising this is, especially with Super Cel just a few miles south last weekend and at least one Sport scheduled to be in attendance.
I have an '02 Excursion with leather, 260k on it - all of its life in Arizona. The driver's seat has some slight cracking on the edge, the previous owner was 300 lbs. That said, even in a light color, it can be hot and sticky. Most modern automotive leather interiors don't need a lot of care...
Tell me more about Italian Corinthian leather. I'm unfamiliar with the product. For instance, what part of Italy does it come from? What qualifies it to be called "Corinthian"? Do the words have to be spoken with a Ricardo Montalban accent?
I just thought that a bed liner just shy of two inches thick would be a huge waste of material. :)
For those who aren't familiar with the product, it is damn near indestructible if applied correctly. Huge commercial mines use it on their immense dump truck beds, as the mining materials...
1.8" thick? That's going to cause some interesting clearance issues.
Even at the (much thinner) recommended thickness, it isn't weight that will be a problem - it will be clearance between mating surfaces. You can't coat two mating surfaces and expect them to dimensionally align again, let...
