A PHEV is not 90% more battery, its 900% more. It will cost at least twice the price, can't handle any load without seriously de-rating the range (just like the Lightning), and can't haul nearly as much with that battery weight. Give your head a shake.

To each their own. Some like Ecoboosts and some like hybrids. Some want to redesign the vehicle so that it takes a 2mpg 10L V8 that can tear the "crummy" Continentals off in 30miles for some wacko reason. Some want to do autobahn speeds in an aerodynamic brick and then complain that they are...

No. Avoid that dealer. He's either a clueless idiot or a fraudster.

Its the same engine, with some small modifications only.

Just like selling a house, if its bolted down, its not yours. The insurance company can sue you for the estimated resale value of those parts, as you are have de-valued their property.

If you have a disabled person in the vehicle and are using the handicapped space, you need to also have the handicap license placard prominently displayed in the vehicle with you. With no placard, it does not matter that she is in the vehicle and you're in violation.

Its all about lowering the amount of air under the vehicle, screwing up the gas mileage. That's also why there is a shield under the engine on most vehicles now, to reduce turbulent airflow. What kind of road anomalies do you have that are taller than 8"? I'd definitely be scared of driving...

Fron your pics it looks like no rail damage and just sheet metal. That looks totally repairable. The body shop getting replacement parts could be an issue though...

Its not about you being super nice and rolling your window down, its about the people who do not play nice and are pointing a weapon at the officer or wherever. Its also about making it easier for those black helicopters looking for drivers toking up or slugging back another beer before they...

Have you seen the ridiculous number of F150's and fairly large number of Bronco Sports on the lots? Ford is having to discount these just to clear the lots. Those plants clearly didn't read the memo about cutting back production. There are absolutely no Mavericks on dealer lots within 100...

LOL. The worn off rubber is the biggest contributor to the micro-plastic pollution patches in the Pacific. Its even in every fish that you eat.

You must have a lot of money. The cheapest model of Honda is $5k more than the most expensive model of Ford. On a feature-for-feature basis, the Honda is about $16k or 50% more money. It competes with the midsize trucks like the Canyon or the Ranger, not the small ones. It also won't fit in...

Aluminum may not rust, but it corrodes far faster than steel when exposed to the large amounts of salt used in southern Ontario. Steel rims can be easily fixed with paint and a wire brush, but aluminum rims are a writeoff when they corrode.

Yeah, I'd take that bet considering that my son is a police interceptor driver and knows for absolutely sure that this is totally wrong information. You don't drive very much in hydroplaning conditions, do you? Its all about sipes in the tread and having flexible sidewalls and reasonable weight...

Drive more reasonably. Seriously, oil life in any new vehicle out in the wild is mostly determined by how aggressively you drive, and you are clearly at the wrong end of the scale.

If your state allows front and side window tints, then you're in a very backwards state. Maybe consider moving to more normal places, where the cops can actually see what you're doing when you get stopped. There is also the huge problem in that dark tint makes it impossible to actually see...

No. I think order fulfillment is done by dealer allocation and little else. Most dealers have no allocations, so nothing is being scheduled. Its a really broken system that need to be scrapped in the worst way. Whoever came up with this dealer allocation system needs to be shot and pissed on...

Find a better carwash that also does the interior. They pressure-wash with soap and them water and reinstall them.

That's not a competitor, any more than the nonexistent Stout is. I think that Toyota is missing a lot of the selling points of the Mav, with a lifted truck that makes it hard to get into, limited range and the stupidly long recharge time that they are becoming famous for, a very questionable...

https://www.princessauto.com/en/600-lb-8-ft-foldable-utility-steel-ramp-hardware/product/PA0008118234 Its not US$80, but CDN$149 if you have a bit of spare wood. I cut up an old machinery shipping crate. They also have a 6ft kit, but that might be too high of an angle unless you're strong.
