A Horse With No Name

Tacoma you have to get the top level TRD pro to get the manual though. Were they to offer the manual in other trims, I may well have a Toyota in my driveway rather than a Ford. Not unique to GM or EV's, Ford is having to step into that proverbial alley and step up for that $20 whore to get rid of the Ecosport. https://fordauthority.com/2020/11/ford-ecosport-discount-reduces-price-by-6750-in-november-2020/ Before we intellectually invest in an alternate universe where GM is sucessfully selling 40 EV's profitably in mass quantity, lets see them do it with one first. If GM were any better at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, they would be obliged to run for public office. Obviously a love sick beast trying to make an unholy alliance with that GM Chevrolet Bolt OCNblu hates so much.

Neat Restomod Bronco. I really like Bronco's old or new in light grey. If I get one, I would love cactus grey. But Video is hugely cool. They grey interior sets this off nicely.

For a guy who spent a good many years absolutely hating Ford, I gotta say they are impressing the hell out of me right now. My Ranger is one of my five favorite ever vehicles...others being 66 Fastback Mustang, 55 Chevy 2 Door, 2002 NB Miata, 2015 diesel Jetta. Defroster is best of any vehicle I ahve ever owned, which is just awesome for Ohio fall mornings. Average fuel economy contin eus to drop slightly as he gets broken in and I esxplore the boost in ecoboost more, and also haul more heavy loads of lumber. For SUV's though, It would be game over Lincoln if I were buying a luxury SUV. I love the current lineup. Especially the interiors. Love the modern architecture of the house also.

Or navigating the waist deep bullshit in threads here at C and G! Wonder if there is a Bovine Fecees mode in the 4WD controller....sort of like snow or sand mode in a Jeep 4wd. I want something lighter and smaller. But thanks for thinking of me. Or a slwoly rising segment of the market that is neither going to take overything voer by 2023 nor will it go away or diminish. Lots of electrics here in Columbus. And ICE vehicles also of every stripe. I kind of find it sad. Lots of people will loose jobs, including service writiers, emchanics, engeneers, car carrier drivers, et al.

Plus Ford is telling people to expect very high depreciation on the EV Mustang, and has dropped the price by $3000. Kind of like Pony cars and muscle cars in the 60's, everything has it's saturation point. There is a reason AMC did not sell a quarter of a million Javelins or AMX's in 1971. I think there is a market for electric vehicles, Obviously. VW is selling a ton in Europe, Norway is highly electrified, Tesla is selling a ton of vehicles, Rivian has a bunch of deposits, high interest in electric commercial light delivery vehicles, China is building a bunch of electrics, etc. However GM's approach to this is the same thing that caused them to loose all of the brand equity in cars they had like the Impala, Cutlass, Grand Prix, etc. Namesly, making about the dumbest possible production and marketing decisions and expecting people to live with them when other choices are available. A Frumpy little hatchback and a Vaporware super truck are way outside the parameteres of what most EV customers want, so the free market will bitch slap GM like it was a 20 dollar whore refusing to give a blow job in a back alley.

I think you are over estimating how much electrics will take over the market.

Add Bronco and Wrangler to the list as well.

Best owner review I have ever seen in terms of people who have owned a Tesla long term.

Of course, we won't throw ICE out of the garage, this is cool also.

Neat Trailer...

I could see this being what the Ranger gets traded in on in five or six years. A midsize truck from Rivian would be killer. Notice the Benz and the Nissan and the Porsche in for EV conversion as well. Apparently in Europe and other places a lot of ICE are being converted to EV.

Ford and Chevy trucks of this era are rapidly becoming like crack cocaine to me. I absolutely love them.

I have two children who work in the Insurance industry, they would echo this. Fighting the urge to go look at this. But loosing the battle. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/3443372062414552/?ref=showcase_feed

Before any snowflakes loose their shit, it's a replica.

No I am not!

Not impressed.

Chinese are not sleeping when it comes to Electrics... Mazda action...

From an actual Craigslist advert or two....found "blu ICE woodworking bandsaw. Sorry I can't get the pic to post any bigger. Someone actually did this conversion.... On page 20 of thsi thread... http://www.owwm.org/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=89851&start=285

Yeah, although the body and Chassis on Teslas is breakdown prone enough to make up for a good bit of that. I have high hopes for Rivian and VW in their electric endeavors. They have much more experience building cars than Tesla does. But the number of older Teslas on the road proves the viability of electric technology.
