Really? I drive one a bunch of times 4 hours each day for about a month. I absolutely loved it. The corolla sucks but that feature alone made it bearable to drive.
I was having a hard time deciding until I remembered I have a girlfriend and a 60 pound dog that will take up the back bench.
4 door easy. The 2 door has very little storage space for me.
You can almost certainly put more weight on your roof and drive around. But be mindful that more weight up top will greatly increase the center of gravity, thus increasing chances of rollover. Especially in a lifted suv.
Going a little over (like 1.3x 110 lbs) is probably okay. I wouldn’t go...
Oh damn, inception. That’s a good question, I see what you mean now after re-reading. I don’t know haha. Hopefully that’s how it is. 5k all together.
Based on the difference between base 2 door and 4 door pricing (about $5000), I think think the 10 speed is $2500 or so. The other $2500 of the remaining difference is consistent with the other trim levels’ 2 door to 4 door price difference. The 2.7L will probably be an additional $1000-1500. So...
I second this. I had a set of Grabbers on my 2007 Acura MDX in college in Morgantown, WV. Got me through some tough snow seasons in that hilly town for sure. And I mean HILLY and STEEP. They’re surprisingly good in rain too.
I mentioned this on another thread but Ford’s website lists the 4 door base model with the 10 speed auto as standard equipment. That would help alleviate some of the Sasquatch cost if true.
It’s a pre-production vehicle, I wouldn’t worry about it at all. Plus these guys probably have all kinds of wires and crap for sensors set up in there for testing the vehicle. Not to mention he’s going 30+ mph over sand.
I’ve made up my mind. I’m going with Granger assuming I can keep my place in line. I’ll be making the call today to switch the reservation from a Houston dealer to Granger. It’s a $200 flight worst case scenario and $200 in gas on the 13 hour drive back. I’ll probably stop in KC for some BBQ...
Same here, 8 inches will be fine, trust me. 12 is actually obnoxious in my opinion. It’s cool in a Tesla, but that doesn’t mean every auto company needs to jump on that train. Just my two cents though.
I noticed Ford’s website lists the 4-door base model with the 10 speed auto as a standard equipment. This would explain the huge price jump between the base 2 door and 4 door versus the other trims.
Edit: I also noticed that the other trims upgrade from 2 door to 4 door cost about $2400-2600...
