Another miss is truck manufacturers not offering engine choices or bed and cab choices. I know it's cheaper and easier for them and their excuse is "this is what buyers are saying they want " bullshit. I don't believe it for a second. I bought an extended cab long box Colorado in 2021 and it took me weeks to find a new one. It would have been months to get if I ordered one if I could get it at all.

My #1 idiotic idea: Slapping the Mustang name onto an electric SUV. In fact, Ford has been idiotic with a LOT of their names. The Maverick pickup? That should have been the Ranchero, thus reviving a long absent, very evocative, western sounding, name. Then they could have called their new EV SUV the Maverick, thus properly reviving that name on a new platform. They could have had 3 iconic names on 3 identifiable platforms and been off to the races. But nope, gotta water down their single remaining icon. I'm too enraged over this to call it merely sad.

Calling the Mach-E a Mustang was actually a genius move. It gives the regular mustang emissions wiggle room to stay around as we know it for a lot longer. Even Chevy is doing that with the Corvette. They are making an electric SUV with the Corvette name and styling, to keep it around as a V8 sports car for years longer. So you should stop with your "watered down" bs, because the Mustang is the only muscle car that is staying in production with a V8, while both the Camaro and Challenger are getting discontinued as V8 muscle cars thanks to the Mach-E. Better to have an odd new family member than to kill off the family entirely.

A friend of mine told me about his brother-in-law's brother who lives in LA. He bought an F-150 Lighting EV and wanted to drive it to Denver. He got 100 miles out of LA to Riverside, and had to re-charge. When he found a charge station that worked and was not occupied by a "dead head", the charge time took 3 hours. He got so pissed that he drove back to LA and abandoned the road trip.

Ford SHOULD kill the Mustang (ICE) and replace it with a 2-seat sports car to compete with the C8. I'm speaking as an ex Ford fan-boy, having owned 3 NEW Mustangs in my 67yr driving career, '68 Snelby GT-350, '69 BOSS 302, and '71 BOSS 351. I am tired of basically seeing the SAME old Mustang with the "back seat" (a total joke) all these years. AND, ALWAYS taking a back seat in performance to the competition (Camaro, Charger, Challenger etc.) And yes, Ford should have come up with a different name for the MACH E. With all of Ford's issues (re-calls, reliability "circling the drain") I doubt if I will ever return to Ford again!!

Can you guys actually use the TV behind you to show the cars you’re talking about?? Makes no sense why you aren’t

I thought the shoots without videographers were due to scheduling restrictions and conflicts with other planned videos; I never knew the manufacturers weren’t supporting bringing them along. That seems silly, when they can look at the videos shot with videographers compared to trying to shoot and host simultaneously and see the rather glaring difference in clarity of content and message when the host can just purely focus on presenting the content and let the videographer handle getting all the right angles to frame that content from a viewer’s perspective.

I really, really can’t stand piano black. I like to keep my car clean in the inside and the piano black easily scar arches and collects dusts. There’s plenty of different styles that you can do to make it look nice without doing piano black. I really also can’t stand when the gage cluster is a rectangle. It looks tacky to me and as a tall person it normally gets partially blocked.

Not a chance a c5 will run circles around an evora. The evora is a bit lighter with more power and 2 decades of advancement to the chassis. Are the two cars comparable? Sure but the c5 isn’t the obvious choice, it’s just cheaper.

I have a great idea! If a manufacturer will make a small pick-up truck, it will sell like hot cakes! It will be unybody , will not be able to tow much, the bed will rob interior space, bit besides being horrible at everything it will sell! Believe me!

Surprised Nissan didn’t make the list. They’re usually making bad decisions.

Ford does the same. I bought one and it’s super easy to do.

Yeah, Toyota Japan built vs American built... apples to apples. There is a tolerance difference.

Ford didn't do AWD on their fusion hybrid either. Not sure why.

Here is a problem with many cars. People stampede to sameness. That’s why every manufacture is only selling either a suv or pickup. And they are all almost identical looking. We have tremendous variety. If you want the exact same thing from all 20 vendors.

The trend to cancel flagship engineered performance root vehicles is driving me nuts. I wish Mitsubishi would make an all electric evo that competes with Tesla for cheaper fun Or Mazda put their new turbo inline 6 into a two door supra competitor. These companies have history for fun vehicles and they have just decided it should stay in the past. Make something exciting and cheap, that’s what America needs right now. It worked during previous economic crisis’ and we need it now more than ever.

Audi and BMW designs have ebbed and flowed many times over the recent years. Unlike Porsche, Lamborghini, and Aston Martin.

That’s the good thing about Toyota and Honda. They’re not just building cars for America. They’re building cars for places like Jamaica Trinidad, the Caribbean Brazil places that electric cars just would never work so their hands are not tied.

Hey tfl I am very sure that Doge may have just made career suicide when it comes to ditching the V8. The reason is that cost to make these vehicles is really high and with having the trucks having the V8 engine out will cost these trucks to go much higher then what they are now, and if the new vehicles that they plan on making sunny sell different will be in very big trouble. Also with a brew engine/ drivetrain coming out there are bound to be lots of growing pains and recalls to get them to work perfect! What Dodge should have done is taken a page from Ford and added the turbocharged engines to there line up as well as hybrid and electric vehicles save then slowly discontinued the V8, but they went cold turkey and now i will say farewell to Dodge! ( if they can't sell enough it will be the pickup trucks trying to keep Dodge/ ram afloat)

TPMS is the worst system I hate it

Sure, the Camaro was mishandled but the big thing is production. GM doesn't have any other RWD car that's not a SUV. The production line is too expensive to keep going at such low production numbers. They will want to change the line over to EV's. I'm sure. If they could have made the Camaro in Bowling Green it would still be in production.

i dont think youre overreacting at all Nathan. Wanting your kids to do tedious but important tasks is normal. We do annoying tasks all the time as adults but they still have to be done. But I think over-penalizing isnt good either. Taking the car away or even letting it get towed is probably too much.

1:19:53 Seems like that's the point. Why risk losing control of the narrative and image by letting individual videographers in? Why encourage larger and in-depth videos by having better wifi and allowing 1 on 1 time for each journalist, when a large group viewing with bad upload speed encourages only quick looks, topical video lengths of the eye catching features, and most likely resorting to the carefully curated talking points that the company just used in their presentation. Not to mention cheaper. It's a big advertisement for them. They know that they only need to give the important highlights to paint the image they want. And they know it's going to fall on the journalists to make their own content distinct from everyone else's in their own time to survive. They really just want these journalists' audiences. Seems to be the case for vehicles the company isn't confident will be a success, and they want to keep the narrative at face value and in control until production is in full swing and vehicles are already on their way to lots.

So noting that Audi is not an interesting design in the same breath you’re mentioning that Tesla is, is a head scratcher. I don’t know how to differentiate their jellybeans from one another and it’s taking me years to be able to figure out which one I’m looking at. A Y is just a vertically stretched 3 and a X has got some rooftop lines where the water gets in distinguishing it over the Y and the S looks like an overgrown three. You opt in but if Hyundai is tracking my driving to offer me insurance then you have better believe that every GM, Polestar, Volvo and Chinese vehicle running Android or Google is disseminating that information whether you like it or not and insurance providers are buying it whether you like it or not so they know exactly how rowdy you are when you drive.
