None of the manufacturers incl. the destination charge when quoting price, so Iām not sure how thatās Ford being ādisingenuousā vs. simply following industry practice.. š¤

Itās how they keep quality up. You start having a million options rather than standard trim packages and it increases production costs and lowers quality. Remember in the 70ās and 80ās when option lists were a mile long and the quality was garbage?
They learned this from the Japanese. Just look...
Itās a car! Itās a truck! No, itās the worst of both! š
El Camino or Ranchero anyone?
if this is what ppl wanted, the Honda Ridgeline would sell like hot cakes.. bc thatās what it essentially is...
Itās actually a combination of the two.. due to all the safety requirements, the front end on a completely new body-type is tens of millions to develop. Hence why the automakers have gone to such widespread platform sharing vs. developing a new model from scratch. It also helped drive the...

Took it to the dealer for service this week, and saw the new front end. Better, but still very plastic looking and not like a...
