I'm still salty at ford over my maverick order and many other things, but I'm getting quite impatient for the maverick competitors to come out.

Bronco Sports are an abortion, wishg I saw more real bronco's on the road. I have no need, but the tarted up ones give me the warm fuzzies to look at like when Tacos and 4Runners were looking sick when they first came out (forget which gen but the nice body and scoops)
I’ve seen a few sports that weren’t terrible, but still ranks very low in appeal of small SUV’s.

Cheap shit on a different economy car platform made to look like the real thing for low info buyers.

This guy desperately needs an editor, that was irritating as hell to watch.

'Let's walk over here to this 2024 used Bronco Wildtrak on the lot. They're listing MSRP as blah blah. Ok, now let's see what it's selling for at 2025.' *proceeds to walk down a row of cars for a minute* 'Guess they don't have a 2025 Wildtrak on the lot...'

Thanks guy. This isn't live, remove that entire exposition. That video could have easily been under 5 minutes and still delivered the same information. He barely talked about the clickbaity title he had too, it was 90% about how Ford has overpriced the MSRP on their vehicles and has to walk it back with discounts.

All of his videos are pointless clickbait.

Hey guys, we've revolutionized the assembly of vehicles. Imagine this: we have a system where we build out some subassemblies and then mate them together at a later point. For example, we could build the chassis/drive components, then later on join the cab/box to that - kind of like we've been doing with body on frame pickups for a bazillion years! I am curious at how they've vastly improved the ergonomics lime they're claiming.

Copying tesla with the giant aluminum castings seems like a good idea for savings although I haven't looked at any postmortems on how that all has been going with Tesla. I guess time to buy some Alcoa stock. I'm curious how they're planning to bond all the vehicle grounds, aluminum is doable but requires special attention, could be a lot of electrical gremlins if they do it wrong. Also curious about the zonal architecture they implemented. Every OEM is in love with the concept, but the implementation is sketchy.

Sales of these 30k EV trucks are going to really depend on range. I can't find anything on that. Too short and all their utility is going to be gimped.

Overall, was disappointed, I don't think it remotely came close to living up to the hype. Seems about right for Farley's tenure.
Not related but the great big giant,mega conveyer belts that move the vehicles for Ford,Tesla and everything from automotive industry to Amazon. I build the crates for all those belts.

Think it's okay, interesting enough to set its apart from the mass of white/silver/black everywhere without overdoing it with bright green or meme matte tints.

Anyone here up to date on Tesla lore? I test drove a Model 3 today and one thing that kept bugging me is how it shows the other traffic around you on the screen, basically means stuff is constantly moving on the screen and drawing your eyes to it because of it. Is it possible to turn this off? I couldn't figure out how during the test drive.

Pretty sure you can’t turn it off. I feel like it drew my eye for the first week or so when we got a Model 3 but became used to it quickly enough.

Or tesla could stop being gay and put a normal dash screen like the S and X stop making that a premium. It’s more natural in that location than the side.
