I know I am totally bombed out about not able to geet the built-in keypad in FY24. I find myself use that keypad ALL-THE-TIME. Especially when I have a hand full of stuff and it's in convenient to pull the keys out.
That being said, I am wondering about the longevity of the truck. Getting a...
According to KBB, the truck is worth $28-$30k.
I think the new truck's sticker with everything including TTL is like $30k.
I know it's not a profitable time, but if I can get a brand new truck with minimum loss, I am guessing it's a good deal?
I have a question for all you guys. Should I trade in my 2023 XLT Hybrid with a 2024 XLT Hybrid?
I took delivery of my XLT Hybrid almost a year ago and I loved it. So far 8,600 miles on the odometer and I am about to do the 2nd oil change. I also ordered a 24 one since at the time it's not sure...
I get it. Back in the 1980s, the Japanese invasion was the more imminent threat at the time. From automobiles of Toyota, Honda, and Nissan, to electronics from Sony, Toshiba, and Panasonic, US industries are dying left and right. The big three had go to Congress asking for protection and Regan...
Agreed, I don't want to be banned, and I am against communism wholeheartedly too. I don't think Vietnam was ever a threat even during Rambo I, II, III, IV, and V time. The point I am making is that this is a groundbreaking technology advancement and as consumer, I want this technology at a low cost.

I wouldn't either. Now, it seems Vietnam is selling Vinfast EVs in the US ... maybe Rambo VI can feature a scene with that vehicle ...
BYD is selling a full-size PHEV truck in Mexico right now. It looks somewhat similar to F150. So I think they will put the new hybrid technology in trucks and SUVs.
I love the Maverick for the following reasons ordered by importance to me:
1. Gas milage due to Hybrid engine
2. Utility - it's a...
I for one love to have a longer ranger than the current 600+ mile range on my Maverick. Here is why: the savings on gas costs is significant especially if you live in places like New York and California where gas prices routinely go above $5/gal. Do the math yourself, but I think if you drive on...
So ... I have a feeling but not quite verified yet that the actual percentage of Chinese-made merchandise in both Walmart and Target is almost identical -- and believe it or not, like the overall trade between China and the US is way down, the percentage of Chinese made products are way down in...
Volvo EX30 is a purely built EV from China with Volvo's design assistance. And some Volvos are using Geely's technologies as well. They were largely separate for many years, but I think the synergy is happening now and is benefitting both Geely and Volvo.
Wow, the opinion is all over the place. I didn't want to bring geopolitics into the fold because it's like arguing over religions, everyone has an opinion and is right (and wrong). Here is one opinion from Charlie Munger (may he rest in peace):
!!! Ok, I self-censored to remove a YouTube video...
This has to be some of the biggest automotive news in recent years! A $14,000 car that can reach 1,300-1,400 miles range in one tank of gas. And the car looks like a premium car. There are some youtube videos where testers drive the new car cross country in normal driving mode with AC on getting...

Looks like a pretty good deal. I am thinking of adding a marine outlet in the back and using this to power some tools. What do you think?
I see a line on the reverse screen saying "be cautious of approaching vehicles" or something like that.
Does anyone know what happened? Was that feature disabled or it's something I can re-enable in settings?
It's very unlikely that any of the big 3 will be able to produce an EV small truck or small car for under $30k due to material and labor costs. Chinese manufacturers like BYD can, but the US will do everything it can to block them from entering the market. So for the time being, enjoy your...
This is fairly "normal" meaning it happens a lot. The software implementation between the radio to the phone is very buggy. I reset the radio (hold power and > button) at least once a week.
