Yeah even 10 years has made a huge difference in how busy it's gotten out here. The development stalled for a bit after 2008 but it's going like gangbusters now. :frown:
Hey from another Terrain Tremor owner just up the road in Wesley Chapel! 👋
It's gotten kinda crowded up here as well over the last 20 years we've been here!
If you mean the button, yeah, a dummy cover is likely but that's not a huge change. In the software they will need to not only turn it off but also hide the notification that comes on in the dash when you have it disabled. But everything else could be left in place for when a future...
I absolutely agree that the word "truck" brings certain expectations to many people. But I also believe that many of today's buyers are buying image perhaps more than raw capability.
In terms of the EV world, I think the idea of selling a "truck" is about that image idea because the capability...
I'll give you the fact that there are those who like "knowing it's there in case I need or want it" - my wife will keep candy for months before throwing it out for this very reason. lol
I will also admit to liking the "idea of it" when it comes to towing capability but since the best predictor...
At the end of the day, tradeoffs are the way the world works. Physics dictates certain constraints regarding load and towing that needs to be optimized for if that is the intended use case.
You simply can't have the cake and eat it too.
If you look at these with a color picker none of them match the hex code for the color used on the RealTruck site. However, even on the site the hex seems to vary depending on location on the site.
I'm assuming the engagement with the post is the most important part of this entry. :crackup:
I'm not going to say I know where this came from or that this color doesn't exist but I will say that this is full on AI generated. I'm not trying to start a fight, but I have seen enough AI stuff to know this isn't actual video footage.
It's also been said by many a business leader that even if they wanted to manufacture inside the US, there's a plethora of reasons why it would be an uphill battle to do so. Permitting, a lack of engineering talent, labor costs, supply chain difficulties, etc. all contribute to the state of...
A 2x4, a few wood screws, some leftover grill paint, and 3 milk crates make for great grocery organization!
My idea here was to prevent the crates from moving by wedging them against the tailgate and be able to make less trips in and out of the house.
🤔 Hmm, yes, I change the oil. Or more accurately, I pay someone to change the oil. I don't sweat an exact mileage count but don't let it go for an exceedingly long time either.
I don't have experience with this as far as in the Maverick but I know that AM reception is better with longer antenna lengths because AM radio wavelengths are long. So a possible improvement might be gained in replacing the stock antenna with something longer although it could be objectionable...
Target markets are a real concept but at the end of the day I suppose if the thing sells it might not matter who's buying it (at least in the short term).
