    One more place I want to go. Our Debate team hosted Students from Rwanda once, it was a great event. I would love to visit the country.

    This is a good thing, actually. For both you and Paulino, I want to visit Italy but I want to go right after I retire, while I am still young enough to hike and walk a lot, and also while I am able to afford to spend 6-8 weeks exploring the country. I think the slow fall of the dollar, the decline of empathy for our fellow Americans, the decline in common sense, the propensity for California to over extend itself, the desertification of the southwest, the continued industrial decline of the US, a ton of negative factors will kind of eff California over. Interesting your comments on Expats, because I damn sure intend to become one.

    Interesting how badly the Ford Expedition does in this test. You would think for a flagship model they would get it right. Mustang did not faire well either.

    In general I have had excellent luck. Olds content for Drew...

    Interesting, no diesel fuel costs, greatly reduced labor costs.
  7. A Horse With No Name
    I think overall its a great little vehicle. I really like it and the Crosstrek as my top two choices.

    Political but automotive, I wonder how rental car fleets and things like Turo are being affected by the drop in tourism under the current administration. From a military and not political viewpoint, the 2020's decade is rapidly becoming a fecal sandwich filled with sludge.

    What do you know about Subaru engine reliability? Maverick and Crosstrek are my two top choices right now, and I am probably going to have to replace my aging Aveo as my second car in the next year or two. Without getting into politics, Toyotas political contributions make it a probably no go for me. I am unsure, a LOT of modern cars are having a ton of problems. Like I was telling Drew, thinking of replacing my 21 year old Aveo as a second car, but the Aveo is so stone cold simple and the new cars are so ungodly complex.

    My youngest daughters boyfriend actually works in automotive and aerospace metallurgical testing. Kia is not doing a good job with internal quality control. This is from a number of sources, not just this gentleman. Many mechanics and other industry insiders would concur. Automotive jobs are being shipped to China, and Detroit is being iced out in terms of production.

    On a happy note, AI can be used to generate endless images of cars, and I love vintage cars so...
  12. A Horse With No Name
    But it, a Maverick, or a Subaru Crosstrek would be perfect for how I use vehicles. Getting into interesting areas to camp and hike.

    I think I like the idea of a whole new 007 ish character that is not a typical straight white male. I sort of feel "007" got played to death back when Nixon was president. The character needs a fresh sheet of paper and a fresh incarnation. The whole world. FAFO. Zero sympathy for folks bringing this on themselves. Plenty of cyber trucks with healthy discounts though.

    And as a further note it is available in blue. Local dealer has one in Blue at 35K with Ford's current pricing plans. Hmmm.... Wonder what a 5 year old Ranger brings in trade in?
  15. A Horse With No Name
    I think this is one of Ford's best efforts in terms of a specialty vehicle. Better even than the Shelby Mustangs and the SVT Fiesta and Focus. OR the Focus RS for that matter. It really reminds me of the SVT Mustangs of the 1980's, in essence and details as well. Be interested in what colors this comes in, as an SVT ish marron would be killer. And For has always had fantastic blues. Wonder if it could be special ordered in Cactus Grey? The wheels are the bomb on this thing. As a current Ranger owner brought back to Ford by the excellent Ranger (at 112,000 miles mine has been excellent) I think I may be paying my Ford dealer a visit.

    Don't know if I posted this before, but I agree with this also.

    The Ranger Raptor has a timing belt that is problematic, that is a no go for me. The motor in my Ranger has a timing chain. I really want 400 plus miles of Range, would like more in my Ranger to be honest.

    This whole truck is fantastic. 37 grand is just slightly north of what I would like to spend, but since both of my vehicles are paid off and next month I am going to go from extra principal payments on my house to saving for my next vehicle, this might just be in range. Tariffs are going to kill so much, I don't want to get political, but its going to be really ugly. Would be an interesting combination!

    I do also, and they often remain un homed because folks have a bias against them. See, this kills my excuse for all of my irrational posts here. "Obviously I was hacked!" Goodbye Cavalier! An excellent video on the downfall of Southwest Airlines. Everything on this channel is well researched and enjoyable IMHO.
  21. A Horse With No Name
    I have not. Colors from years past...short video, cool.

    Its being ruined by equity capital, just like everything else in the US. I like their pilots and crews, but like I said, prefer not flying on Boeing products. Zero issues with that sort of AI. Interesting.
  23. A Horse With No Name
    Pathetic how we throw away cars... I prefer flying on Airbus, or Embraer. so I check the usual plane on the flight before I book a ticket. No Boeing flights scheduled for the rest of the year, and going several places.
  24. A Horse With No Name
    Big SUV's might have some big safety issues... BYD is making some interesting moves...
  25. A Horse With No Name
    They fly Boeing products. For political and safety reasons, Boeing is dead to me. I fly Airbus every chance I get, or Embraer.
