This. The engineers and line workers knew the Focus/Fiesta DCT was a complete lie. They screamed to upper management. They didn’t care. They’re the ones people are upset with this time too, not everyone else.
OP wasn’t using it to describe a single object, was he? He was explicitly using it to contrast two vehicles. Did you read the post? “Fast” can’t be used as a subjective term to describe just one object without context of other, similar objects. If it is, literally anything capable of movement is...
Let’s go with the Oxford Dictionary definition:
“1.
moving or capable of moving at high speed”
Maybe you can indicate which word here describes “feel” or “butt dyno”. My grasp of the word is just fine, thanks.
Despite the drag race posed by this video, your subjective feel of your 2.0 Rubicon has literally no bearing on the speed of the Bronco. It’s not fast. The 2.0 Rubicon isn’t fast either. I’ve driven one. It’s not fast. Maybe it’s a little faster than the Bronco, maybe it isn’t. But it’s not...
Not every negative thing that ever happens is someone shilling for a competitor. Be realistic about the product. It’s going to have some flaws. The Bronco just is. Not. Fast. It was never going to be. People got high on their own farts over the HP and TQ numbers and forgot to check the weight...
The Bronco just isn’t very fast. It’s fine. It doesn’t need to be. It was stupid to begin with that everyone was talking about how much faster it was going to be than the Jeep. No one should care. But the excuses for it are getting a little silly. It’s just slow. People just need to figure out...
The situations are actually perfectly opposite. The similarity is actually between people blaming the owner for those problems you mentioned and people defending the dealership because we don’t know the whole story. People who attack the dealership do so because there IS NO JUSTIFICATION. There...
…you know the dealer in question has more or less acknowledged that it happened, right? What’s the “whole story” that justifies this kind of conduct? Is this why Ford has the worst dealer network in terms of ADM of any manufacturer I’ve ever seen? People try to defend them even when they pull...
Smart man. Funny how literally every RS owner I’ve talked to has some variation of this story. I was on my third trip to the dealer for my definitely sealant related oil leak which I informed them about each time but simply HAD to wait for them to replace the oil feed line and the banjo bolt...
I’m with several other posters on this. I think the top design, whether inherently or through manufacturing difficulties, is flawed. Ford needs to let it go, cop to their mistake, and ship them with soft tops. It is going to be a black eye on the product at this point - Ford can either get out...
