  1. This is one of the foreign Fords that would have been cool to have had here. ST wagon.
  2. They've both proven to be ballsy enough already(turbo 4cyl & turbo 6cyl in TRUCKS). They aren't going to let some startup take this away from them
  3. I cant realistically see a 50/50 merger either. No way. Helping each other in certain markets for certain vehicle? Sure.
  4. I completely agree. With GM and their Bolt technology and Ford saying a year or so ago they're working on hybridizing the F150.. I have a feeling both of those auto monsters know when and how to roll out their electrified versions. Not to say they are always correct but there's more data available now than ever to not screw that kind of thing up.
  5. I will not donate my money to a startup auto company.. It's one of the most difficult markets to crack into.
  6. Oh daaaaamn, haven't see that name in awhile! How the heck have ya been???
  7. How did you get that information? I tried fiddling with that site and couldn't find regional information like you found. Mine, more or less, asks me about specific jobs and what I'm looking for.
  8. Yeah, I wasn't sure how well that would upload.. Haha gas has dropped to under $2/gal here. $1.94/gal is what I paid yesterday. I average about 32mpg so a full tank is worth about 350 miles, on average. I read that the flow rate of gas pumps are between 10-11 gallons per minute, fwiw.
  9. That 20hp is probably a wash when you add a couple hundred pound AWD system and the increased drivetrain losses..
  10. I could see interiors like this being the future regardless of this specific company being successful or not.
  11. Turn the volume down/off as there’s a fire truck rolling past. 292CC270-8EF5-4F81-A8CC-59A88E8A2ECA.MOV
  12. I know if I wasn't guaranteed a job in a few months I would be taking the checks I can get now and managing that money carefully.. Then again I feel like I'm smart enough not to put myself in a situation where I'm striking my employer.. ??‍♂️
  13. It's the most common but 75% is a big stretch. All truck sales alone are just under 3,000,000 units(2,949,395 to be exact). Add in MB, BMW, and all other luxury brands and that alone will be well under 75% FWD 4 cylinder vehicles. I'm just saying your estimate of 75% is way too high.
  14. Hahaha youi're welcome! Full articles, if you're interested. Fusion Sport Edge ST
  15. The 2 million trucks sold last year would like to have a word with you.
  16. You didn't have a question mark in the paragraph. What was the question?
  17. No, they usually give them at least a retuned suspension and sometimes larger or grippier brakes and tires. The Fusion Sport got their "Continuously Controlled Damping" system. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a15349337/when-the-roads-gone-to-pot-fords-fusion-sport-will-mitigate-pothole-shocks-video/ It isn't as sporty as an enthusiast wants but it's not a genuine weakness. They gave it a pretty neat suspension system. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a15349337/when-the-roads-gone-to-pot-fords-fusion-sport-will-mitigate-pothole-shocks-video/
  18. Nor does Honda, Toyota, Hyundai, Mazda, etc. The sportiest is/was the Fusion Sport.
  19. Luckily, 99.9% of driving doesn't involve the limits that a car has an advantage at.
  20. There isn't much performance a CUV loses to in a Malibu, Fusion, or Impala.. Yeah, there's a Fusion Sport as an outlier.
  21. Yeah one of my best friends had an HHR SS. That was one quick little sh!t.
