I have some specific training in the radio communications field. The problem is not the radio interfering with the car, it's that the car's high-power electronics produces a lot of electromagnetic interference that AM radios are sensitive to. The car's electronic environment interferes with AM...

Hybrid is the way to go a given the current state of the art in engines and motors. I'm surprised nobody has yet revived the gas turbine engine as the prime mover coupled to a generator / battery storage unit, with an all-electric powertrain. The next real innovative step would be micro-sized...

Well, since everyone's working from home now, maybe you can have it delivered. Send me some money, and I'll work something out with Uber or Doordash. :)

I was doing just fine until I read the " ..., while the manual top requires an estimated five person team to operate. " sentence. LOL I blew right past the F-150 Convertible link like it wasn't even there...

Can't tell what part is the gas pump and what part is your truck. Can you take another photo without the nozzle in it?

I got the same steps, and mine's a SuperCab XL, too. I sprung for a few upgrades, but she makes regular dump runs, too.

I've turned off lane keeping assist in my last two vehicles. A Subaru Crosstrek and now the Ranger. They can't reliably tell the difference between a re-routed lane or a repair and the new lane continuation that deviates from the old path. Dangerous, when your own car tries to run you off the...

Still waiting myself...

AAAAAAAH! Not the dancing banana!

That is what the Ridgeline WISHES it was. Fine looking sport truck. Following in the footsteps of the El Camino or the Ford Ranchero. Doesn't even need lowering. But you could... Did they sell good?

Wow! Not exactly what I had in mind... This is South Florida. People would be tryin' to snatch my truck and slaughter it for black market beef...

Wow! That's really nice work! Are you a pro?

Mostly true. Even the little crease above the headlights. :) But it doesn't make me love the Ranger less. It makes me love the Taurus. I've never even seen one around in traffic.

It's just the blue oval, but with clipping...

I see it. It's a nice looking front end. Good styling is good styling. The lower grill sides are angled in more on the Taurus, and the Ranger headlight extends below the inflection point on the grille sides. I think that's what the Tremor"nostrils" are keying off of. You're kinda wrong...

Tough to say. In the automaker business loop, cost savings is achieved by deleting parts, laying off personnel, and "pausing" R&D projects. In the railway space, cost savings is likely to take the form of "deferring" maintenance tasks. Labor disputes that are not resolved in favor of unions...

Apparently they hit the emergency brakes, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergency_brake_(train) and actually managed to avoid hitting the truck, but the train ended up derailing even so.

Does this mean it MIGHT be possible to get a new car deal done in LESS then 6 hours?

Great name! I like it! I actually do like S better for driving slow. Keeps the revs up, so throttle response is improved. If you leave it in "D"efault, it has to downshift two or three gears if you so much as nudge the gas. My standard drive is Trailer mode, because it is just less "busy"...
