Got invited to do a little wheeling with @Schmohawk and a buddy of his today. A good time was had by all, with only a few pucker moments. Even had a Rivian sighting, and ran into some other broncos as well
I did a fair bit of shopping around before I finally settled on this one, as it seems those crazy Aussies have to contend with a lot of the same problems that we do here in Arizona. Specifically, heat, UV, and epic amounts of dust.

An interesting article I ran across regarding Toyota's lack of innovation, specifically on the EV front. I know a huge complaint people have (myself included) regarding Toyotas isn't their reliability, but...

Because @TJconvert2.7 suggested it, and we all really need something better to argue about than gas vs electric, here's the beer poll thread. Leaving the brands out so people can just suggest their own, and then we can all get drunk in our own garages.
Given that *every* vehicle has things about it that no manufacturer can seem to get right, what do people with a bit more Ford experience anticipate being possible common problems with our incoming trucks?
to be clear, this isn't meant to be a 'bash-every-manufacturer' thread, just curious what...
A while back there was a nice thread that had dimensions of literally everything involved in the rear end of the 2dr. has anyone seen anything like that for the dimensions of the center console? I have some ideas of things I might want to do with that space, but I'm curious about the sizes and...
Happened to get an unrelated call from the dealer today, and it occurred to me to ask if there was a way to specify in the build itself to not have that goofy fender badging installed at the factory, since I'd prefer it not be there. Alas, there is not, and I will either have to do it myself...
