I bought a rubber strip to slot between the windshield and dashboard, in the months since, I haven't heard the worst rattles at all. I used to have a rattle that was really, really bad. Like my instrument cluster makes a mild rattle going over road imperfections. If that level of rattle was like...

I'll be honest, I don't like the front end of this Toyota truck from a few years ago, but I kinda like the side view proportions. Even something with these proportions I could get behind.

I hope so. When their CEO talks about how they want to create vehicles that delight owners in every way that matters, including design, a sante Cruz design wouldn't delight me, it would be an automotive shoulder shrug. But something that looked more like a muscle car with a bed just with a...

IDK, not a huge fan of the super cab forward look and it wouldn't pass modern safety standards.

The issue is the sante Cruz is a halfway point, that's why it doesn't work. If Hyundai had committed to making it look more like a blocky truck, or if they had owned the non truck look, it would have been better than what they actually did.

He seems pretty happy if you see his full reaction in this vid near the end, it's a short vid. Their reaction was seeing the truck for the first time right after the sheet was pulled off.

They're making a ton of different body styles, I'd kinda love it if they made a more lifestyle oriented truck, and a super practical fleet truck riding on the same platform. I would be calling this wrong, but I don't believe this first truck will be very fleet oriented. RWD, with the looks/aero...

I know a lot of people are gonna attack me for suggesting something so different, but I've just been thinking about this a lot lately. Ford is over trucked. They offer so many different kinds of trucks, and they're all kinda the same thing in terms of how they look. Some are massive and very...

Perhaps, I also had another thought, and frankly, I think this is too bold for Ford to go into the direction I'm about to propose, but it's a fun thought. If Ford wanted to do a new car based ute, something less super duty and more ranchero, I thought it would be kinda cool to do a ute that...

As far as looks go, this is all we have of people actually seeing the truck. You can't see much because it's such a close up view of it, but the people seeing it seem to really like how it looks.

Fair points, but I'd argue a couple of things. Having a lower ride height does offer a number of advantages, better handling and performance, better aero and efficiency, and generally better looks. While lower vehicles are often harder for individuals of a more mature age to get into...

I don't see why it couldn't, just extend the cab to provide the extra doors, and keep the rest of the design basically the same.

Their CEO said it would be a new silhouette. So something with a truck bed, that doesn't look like a conventional truck. It will also be RWD, with super advanced areo design done by redbull F1 employees, and a 0-60 at least as fast as a Ecoboost mustang, so 5 seconds or less. Ford filed a...

I believe Ford said in the maverick it's 0.12 out of 1,000 vehicles impacted by this. So let's round that up to 2 vehicles out of 10,000 and 12 vehicles out of 100,000. Which makes sense seeing as you said it's only 300 engines out of multiple popular models.

To be fair, dealers replace defective batteries with AGM under warranty now. That's what they did with my '22 hybrid about a week ago. Got it done about 2 weeks before the BtoB warranty expired and saved $250. I've heard reports it's the same deal with CV axle components now. Just like how any...

I'll be honest, if Ford knows this is an issue that has a high probability of occuring, I do hope this becomes a recall. Something where I can prematurely take it in and have the axles replaced rather than the stress of waiting for them to fail. Ford and other brands have recalled over a handful...

Ah hell yeah lol. I'm not gonna lie, I know it's been frustrating, but I feel like half the truck is eligible for free parts if they fail at this point. Which ironically gives me more confidence in it long term compared to most vehicles which have known issues where you're on your own once the...

So just to clarify, this pertains to the CV axle boots right?

I would just swap in a AGM battery. That's what Ford did under warranty for my '22 maverick. It seems like that's the best way to get rid of deep sleep issues.
