    That's the spirit! ;)
  2. Ford Temporarily Halts North American Production

    Or, to paraphrase how Lewis Black put it: There are two parties in this country, the party of no ideas and the party of bad ideas.
  3. Ford says future vehicles not interrupted

    Strange, I don't remember that! Oh, right- I had a Mac... :LOL: Super stable, and could boot to a near-full GUI from a floppy due to it's closed arch and well sorted on-board kernel.
  4. 2.7 vs coyote power curve

    Something is wrong with those Ecoboost graphs... Look at the crossover.
  5. Ford says future vehicles not interrupted

    Still got that cheeseburger and six foot erection, eh? ;) "No no no. We need to keep fighting. Make a couple of stops on our way home from the Persian Gulf. First stop! Vietnam! Surprise the fuck out of those people, huh?" "You make a movie?" "Not this time, pal!"

  7. will the bronco be cancelled altogether?

    Somewhere under all that jingoism and whitewash of the nuance of the American tort system is a kernel of truth... I see little in the Chinese system that suggests it's a communist country- it's more of a hybrid autocracy (not quite a dictatorship, and with odd hints of capitalism) with a cool...
  8. The Bronco information drip feed

    It doesn't, but the name still makes me giggle! For me the term 'Badlands' evokes a somewhat more rugged impression than the 'XLT' this would probably be in normal Ford parlance. And from what I remember, the Sahara at least got (standard) slightly wider wheels, larger tires, and the bigger...
  9. States more interested in the 2021 Bronco over Jeep and other competitors

    You already did, when you used the 'free' service they provided! As the saying goes, there's no such thing as a free lunch!
  10. Big hood size, engine optimism ?‍♂️

    Exactly: Non-Ethanol=lowered cooling+other effects 85 Octane, fine for NA engines@high altitude=too low for a turbonormalized engine If you did the 87 first, there's a chance the reset parameters on the engine hadn't kicked in yet before you'd burned the tank of 91. I have no idea how Ford...
  11. Coronovirus discussions

    Really? DId you read it? Seemed fairly reasonable to me. TLDR: If we do stupid things, lots of people will die, if we do smarter things, less people will die. Also, humans tend to panic, but sometimes one brave soul can save the world. Not that different than anything else really, Dumb=Dead...
  12. Big hood size, engine optimism ?‍♂️

    If the engine is tuned for 87, adding higher Octane fuels will accomplish nothing. The engine has no way of determining what the Octane rating of the fuel is. Most likely, there's a knock sensor that will retard timing based on the assumption of low-Octane fuel or Carbon buildup on the cylinders...
  13. The Bronco information drip feed

    HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! Badlands Package appears to be the mall-crawler special. Body colored outside bits and heated/power/leather inside bits. As someone said earlier, people are stupid, and this isn't likely to improve the overall perception of the Bronco name...
  14. Big hood size, engine optimism ?‍♂️

    There are several diesel aircraft options- unless you're talking about turbine aircraft that use JetA. I believe the military replaced JP-4 (old formulation, now they use JP-8, more like JetA with some extra additives) with diesel in tests and it ran fine, but destroyed the engines. I think...
  15. Big hood size, engine optimism ?‍♂️

    I see the problem, I forgot my sarcasm tags...
  16. Big hood size, engine optimism ?‍♂️

    Exactly what I said... Also, perhaps limit ourselves to fuels that don't have thermal losses.
  17. Big hood size, engine optimism ?‍♂️

    I think we should stop putting hydrophobic anything in our fuels... ;)
