What news do you speak of? I'm a huge NFL fan.. Dallas Cowboys fan to be specific.

I hope that after all of this disagreement we can all at least be happy that Johnson did as well as he did, not because you voted for him or believe in what he does but that there should be a THIRD funded party next go-around. This two party system is junk and it seems like everybody agrees on some level. The more MAINSTREAM candidates we can get the more of 'the people' will get accurately represented.

Is there more to this read? It was a very good read and if there is more I'd like to continue reading it, thanks!

Ford EcoSport To Make North America Debut At LA: Comments
ccap41 replied to William Maley's topic in LA Auto Show
What engine/trans combo would we be looking at here? I assume the 1.5T would be somewhere but there are usually 2 engine choices... the 1.0T..? I know this is small but is the 1.0T enough for the much less aero-slippery EcoSport? -
Ford EcoSport To Make North America Debut At LA: Comments

Jeez.. about time the US get this. It isn't for me but people love their CUVs and not having a itsy-bitsy one has to be hurting Ford a little. Honestly, the only thing that looks appealing on that is the Raptor-esque grill. The wheels are ugly and almost look too small for a reasonable brake package. The graphic is awful.. -
Nailed it.

This absolutely BLOWS MY MIND that lefties don't understand the difference. I am all for getting rid of ILLEGAL immigrants but nothing has been said about kicking LEGAL immigrants out so I don't see the issue.
-
I completely agree with this. I think this is the first time a lot of these youths even voted and they didn't get their way so they're pouting. I heard an interview last night with a protester in LA and I kid you not this is word for word, "A lot of people are upset that who they voted for didn't win and that isn't fair."

I don't mind idling a plant or slowing production or whatever you have to do to correct your supply/demand. Laying off.. sucks. At least they know early enough to not overspend on the holidays. Hopefully the families will plan accordingly and will be back to work in only a few weeks or so.

15, she's just a freshman yet... lol Plenty of time yet! I'd be grouped in that as well because my girlfriend is Indian. It's a shame how close minded people are.
-
So you would have been wanting to more regardless of who won, right? Because the both acted like a high schooler with their drama BS.
-
AWESOME! I know you're not some dumb dumb but when I saw that I didn't know if you had looked past it at some point. Question, with it illegal there...how does that make you feel? Or Why would you choose a country which still does not allow a same sex marriage? I feel like that would be somewhat of a lateral move. Yeah that's just a f@#k'd theory.. No better way to word that.
-
Drew, just as a heads-up. You mentioned Germany at one point and gay marriage is not legal there. I don't know how a marriage here transfers to a country like that.. but it's definitely worth looking into. They allow same-sex partnerships which grant most of the same legal benefits but it is not considered a marriage.
-
It's horrible from both parties. Nobody shows respect for each other anymore. It is their way or no way.
-
I agree with this. Aaaand this..
-
They should have consolidated brands rather than try and bring more over here. Ford and GM consolidated brand because it was necessary and it's costly.

Personally, I feel like the hate crime stuff would have risen regardless of who won.. This was a very angry election by both parties. People tend to no longer listen to each other they just yell and yell and in person people will start fights over differing opinions..and that's ridiculous to me. So we ave different opinions.. state both of your cases..attempt to persuade.. and if it doesn't work both walk away. But nobody does that anymore. People seemingly build barriers and won't let anything in. It's bull$h! how people(in general) act these days.

What exactly are you terrified of?

Escape had massive gains as well once they released the new one for 2013. 2012 Escape 3.0 V6 FWD: 19/25 2013 Escape 2.0T FWD: 21/29 Same horsepower but like a 47ft-lb gain as well. 2012 Escape 2.5 I4 FWD: 21/27 2013 Escape 1.6T FWD: 23/31 Also, that 2.7 EcoBoost.. That's one great little engine.

The Conti is the first to get its own switchgear and I would assume that would trickle through the brand. That is a HUGE step to get out of Ford's shadow.
-
Aaaaaaagreeeeed!

I'd wager very good money that 90%+ have no clue or care that it's on a Ford chassis. Most people aren't like us car guys who even know that. Like I'd bet the same thing that people have no clue my Escape is on the same platform as the Focus. People don't know because it isn't relevant when buying. I do as well it's just a lot for a brand that hasn't had much in the last 10+ years. But you get out of a slump by doing things right..and those things cost money.
-
I'm kind of conflicted on that because doesn't it start around 45k? On one hand they've been harassed(by myself as well) for cheapening out on things by being too Ford. So they attempt and succeed at making it very much not Ford but now it costs too much.. so on one end it competes with 45-60k cars buuuut it can reach nearly 80k which is up there with some serious luxury cars. And at 80k those are base XJ, 7 Series, A8 and it will oust them in options. Its just kind of at a weird spot right now for Lincoln But I think it is what Lincoln needs too. A true Lincoln.
