Explained well but I don't understand one thing - if the inside wheel is being locked by the brake, wouldn't tire size be irrelevant? The rotational forces working against each other are the axle turning and the brake caliper/hub resisting that torque right?

I realized I threw a question mark at the end of my statement, should have been exclamation point, as in it looks good for 10 years old! That's wild, only used the gas engine ~20% of the time! These cars always fascinated me so I ask for data whenever I get a chance. My paid-off car gets 30...

Thats in great shape for 10 years old? I see 106k on it, I'm just curious how many gas vs electric miles (if it has that data).

Tunes for MK8's are starting to come out, get you closer to that 400 hp of the Vette....

That looks to be a designated crumple-zone portion of the frame the way it 'accordioned' so neatly. There must be a replacement part and procedure for just that part of the frame.

Thanks for sharing! Dream of mine to head that way and stay for a bit for some fishing.

I replaced all my brake lines on my Silverado and faced the same issue of not being able to cycle the ABS pump without a scan tool. I lived on a gravel road so I topped off the reservoir, did a panic stop on gravel to cycle the pump then bled normally. I repeated a few times (multiple ABS...

Is the Accord paid off? If so, I don't think any math would work out with an interim vehicle purchase being the better financial decision. It's definitely a gamble - prices could stay inflated or drop by the time big Bronco comes. If it's the 7 year itch for a new car - have at it lol

No skin in the game just thought it funny

I don't understand why this frame of mind exists, (not targeting you Fossil) but if more people buy electric, wouldn't demand for gasoline and subsequently the cost of gasoline go down?

I think the forecast is accounting for volatility though, as there is also this graphic relating prices in context of geopolitical events: Of course who knows what more :poop: will hit the fan. Important to note the charts are showing prices in 2010 dollars, so adjusted for inflation it...

Looks like futures forecast is a spike during summer months, then dropping down to 'normal' (whatever that actually is) towards the end of the year. https://www.eia.gov/finance/markets/crudeoil/spot_prices.php

I'm curious, what would be your negotiation tactics here? Your hand is shown at this point; you're at the 2 year mark after reserving and the dealer knows they can ask 10K over on the lot and get it. There's really no leverage for negotiation.

Are you 3D printing those?! That bin is huge!

Design looks good, but I think people are hesitant because it isn't as clear of a solution as your other products. Your door pockets and center organizer are solving very real issues with the vehicle that people can easily observe. They improve the vehicle's functionality in large ways for...

Enthusiast site skews the data a bit I'm guessing. 35 and I've bought 6 cars in my driving career, all manual. I've never purchased an auto.

C'mon people! It goes like this: Marketing...........(big separation)................engineering..............(big separation).............manufacturing Just because manufacturing isn't keeping up doesn't mean all the other Ford departments and employees are just going to sit around on their...

Impressive modeling and those mounting holes are a no brainer, good idea! Ooof the cost of machining all those hexes... $$$

2 door already has limited fuel tank capacity, can't imagine they'd be able to jam a floor full of batteries for a PHEV. That picture has GOT to be some interns messing around with local spy photographers. I would love a 2 Dr PHEV Bronco, but with the 4 Dr being the volume seller and money...

Hey, you're usually correct 99% of the time, but you've got this switched around. DOHC tends to be larger than pushrod. Taller heads to hold gear train, extra length for cam phasers and what not. That being said, if Ford can make adequate power with Ecoboost AND pass EPA Emissions (sorta BS...
