    Well I would have been convinced otherwise according to members' talk. How often to people need to drive more than 230 miles in a day? Charge at home and we don't even need an infrastructure.

    Because loan companies keep extending loan terms. 60 months was long at one point. Now there are some 96 month auto loans!! NINETY SIX MONTHS!!! That thing is depreciating waaaaay faster than the owner is paying it off and then they get conned into GAP coverage too.

    I can't agree enough with this.

    Great deals but I'd want to wait another year for even more heavy depreciation. Those first few years depreciate really bad. Plus, what's the diference between 12,000 miles and 30,000 miles? Nothing, imo. I'd gladly take one of them off their hands! C400 would be nice. That's not a bad thing, I don't think... If anything, it brings them more cash as a "double sale". I'd think fleet sales would be more detrimental to a company than leases.

    And they have primed the pump... And according to ppl here EVs can be driven everywhere so there's already enough infrastructure so why do they need to keep priming a pump that's already primed? Or I guess, how much longer should they do this?
  6. ccap41
    Well, if EV's are all they're talked up to be then people will still buy them, right? I also don't think it's a huge issue. Like it's already been said, Tesla, GM, and Nissan are coming up on their 200,000 anyway. What's more important? Letting consumers potentially save $7500 on something that they probably don't need to be buying or spending the $7500 somewhere else or just reducing debt? FWIW, as far as I know, nobody here has even taken advantage of the credit anyway.. Nobody is on the verge of it(or at least spoken out about it).

    I don't necessarily mean physical dimensions but things like mounting locations, trans mounting and things like that. but turbo plumbing probably isn't the easiest in the front end of a van.

    Oh I definitely agree. I would have said the Chevy 6.2 but Ford doesn't make it, LOL. This would actually be a perfect fit for the new diesel that'll go in the F150... but it'll be expensive and if it's a rental vehicle I doubt Uhaul gives a crap how much better it is because it would cost them more. Plus idiot renters WILL end up putting gasoline in the diesel tank. Yeah I'm assuming the biggest hold up with not putting either V6 ecoboost is that the E Series is so old and designed with different motors in mind that there just isn't a good way to cram a turbo v6 under the hood anyway. It just seems like there as to be a better option for the V10. I UNDERSTAND why it's used... but still seems odd.. it's 2017. hahaha

    Sh!t, only 5 years ago it was good still. They just started whoring it out in the last couple of years.

    The ZL1 1LE and Z06 beat everything except the AMG GT R. Period. Mercedes has AMG Coupes like the C63 Coupe, E63 Coupe, SLC43(fake AMG), and SL63 so we're not comparing the sporty coupes of GM to sedans at Mercedes.
  12. ccap41
    Ahhhh now things are making more sense! Fleet E-Series. I knew they were only for work vans but I hadn't thought of Uhaul or places like that buying them. I had to look it up.. 288hp or 320hp and 424tq or 460tq. What a freakin' dog of a motor. Nothing a simple 3.5 EB couldn't handle with ease.
  13. ccap41
    Are they all like, made-to-order then? Like they have the chassis and when somebody orders them, then they assemble them? Man, that's one old-ass vehicle bones! lol
  14. ccap41
    That's not GM's fault that FCA lost products to sell. Or Ford's or Toyota's...
  15. ccap41
    Yeah they're definitely work-only vans. I just wasn't sure if there was just that much overproduced at the time or if they actually still produce these new sales.
  16. ccap41
    I forgot about the Alfas, good point. That Guilia is pretty. Renegade is one as well but those vans aren't really new.. Hasn't Ram/Dodge always had work vans?
  17. ccap41
    Do you know if the E Series is still actually produced by Ford or i they're just old as dirt left overs sitting on some random lots or what the deal is with those? @Drew Dowdell Do you know this answer?
  18. ccap41
    Exactly.. stagnant, stale, FCA... What was the last NEW product they brought out? Everything is just replacing what they have that's old like the Compass, Pacifica, and Wrangler. 200 was new, FAILED. Dart was new, FAILED.
  19. ccap41
    No issues so far.
  20. ccap41
    Ahhh I wish I could do that but our family room area is kind of in the middle of the room.. There's no real walls around it. We're building a wall for the TV, fireplace, mantel, and bookshelf on the back side. I'll try and see what pictures I have on my phone. Yeah that size is cheap and easy to find but the white walls.. not so much.. . That size is on some 90's early 2000's Buicks as well, if I'm not wrong. We sold a lot of those where I worked. Yeah no reason to let them sit with weight on them for a few months, they'll only age quicker like that. I'd do the same.
  21. ccap41
    I fixed a typo that bothered me. lol
  22. ccap41
    It's sad because it's true.. now that they have the equivalent to M Sport at BMW with the fake-ass C43 and E43 crap...I hate it. I love me some real AMG but the watered down-ness SUCKS. Ford/Lincoln have more than 2 performance cars each. Fiesta ST Focus ST GT350/R (I won't count the Mustang GT as it's reptitive, just the top line Shelby) Raptor GT I wouldn't put them in the same class but theirs an Edge Sport, Explorer Sport, and Taurus SHO(I hate the Taurus!) but they're more performance than every other mainstream brands have.
  23. ccap41
    Ehhh the 1LE version is a little much, imo... Regular ZL1 for me!
  24. ccap41
    I believe they have a second vehicle that will best all but 1 AMG.
  25. ccap41
    All seasons are also known as no seasons for a reason lol. They do nothing great but everything "okay". Ice is one thing that can only safely be traveled on with a dedicated winter tire. No way around that one.. We got some ice last year when I still had my Escape and AWD didn't do anything because ICE. All four wheels would spin regardless if I wasn't suuuper careful.
