well they certainly didn't earn 'their big dollars' on their $5B losses a year EV venture - that's actually where he got religion and his new philosophy - if a new vehicle can't be profitable within 12 months they won't build it.

yep - even earlier - had an 85 corolla , put 200K miles on it, besides basic maint, tires, battery...only repair it really needed was an alternator - and it was so easy to swap out i did it out side at 10 degrees out and changed it out in 15 minutes. Eventually sold it to a family member who...

yep they seem to have no problem lowering prices on EVs and losing even more $ on them ....

'21 was intro pricing - they wanted the publicity and willing to make very little on it to get the buzz going, they could have set the price at 24K and likely got similar reception but at 21,500 it was a no brainer. Ford was rather shocked that most chose the hybrid - they weren't prepared for...

yeah as it is now you can get about 1 mile on the battery

if he liked it and it worked for him he wouldn't be asking for us to vote on it :} my vote: Nah.

nah, i shot to the right and avoided him all together...well until i caught up with him and called him an a-hole and he was so blitzed all he could do was say 'what, man?"

good idea! I just never put it in ECO mode - I'm good with the default mode.

I NEVER put my truck in ECO mode. Ever.

yep - safety problem too - imagine being first in line at a red light and you look in your rear view mirror and see some clown barreling toward you and you need to floor it and get out of the way as soon as you can but of course you're hindered a couple seconds while your truck 'starts up' and...

yep - there are and will soon be opportunists who jack up prices and blame it all on tariffs. Some news report about how the price of flowers has 'skyrocketed' for Mother's day due to tariffs - lots of flowers get imported - when the interviewer asked the flower shop owner how much the flowers...

pure '22 hybrid xl - yeah the scratches and scuffs are unpleasant, I had 2 of the sw changes done - everything else works fine - for $21K and 25K miles on it and 45mpg+ and no deep sleep or anything else - I'm never getting rid of it.

i always turn down the radio and play close attention when i get to one of those with some traffic in it - I HATE them - you can just see where some clown is going to see if they can zip right in front of you when you have the right of way - I avoid them if at all possible.

if you paid cash then you're out of luck. Any other form of payment you can contact the place you bought it and they shouldn't have much trouble furnishing you with the receipt or something close to it - also take pix of the battery with the date code and year on it and send it along. If they...

well just because you didn't know of this TSB doesn't mean you can't still be crazy :}

could be , now that there's the AWD hybrid option not a whole lot of need for an ECO anymore.

there was a recent post that showed that about 90 percent of Mav orders were for Hybrids vs Ecos- problem is that the plant is way under capacity for building hybrids by about 40 percent and way over capacity for ECos that account for the balance - the only good thing is that if you really want...

.....kids usually have a sort of 'permanently' installed car seat - being able to pop the other side where (yeah not much room) you have stored something without having to move the car seat out also helps...

60/40 splitback rear seat would have been good....
