Hit and run drivers are thieves. Take their problem and make it yours to deal with. The US needs caning as a punishment option. They know they aren't going to jail for a misdemeanor and they are judgement proof as far as fines goes, so why *not* roll the dice and flee if you're a no...

Still think it would be a blast if they'd actually build one. It's dumb in all the right ways. :D

I'd go sit in a Ranger first. The interior will be the same dimensions regardless of Raptor or not. I think you'll find it pretty, especially if any of them require car seats. The footprint is the same as the old full size trucks, but the doors were a lot thinner back then and didn't intrude...

Outside my lane here, but wouldn't a fluid analysis and teardown show that you'd done that?

I assume the OP is Mike Le Han. This is not my area of expertise in the slightest, but he's got some credits in major films so not just some bro with a go pro looking to score your Raptor for the day. IMDb him if you care then make your decision if you want to go play or not.

I tried to start a service for the rest of us, NF. Nobody's Fan. Turns out sending unsolicited nudes and requesting payment to not send any more is "illegal" and "morally questionable", at least according to those ****** on Shark Tank.

Nominally, yes. In actuality, she proposes to do something to get a shit ton of clicks, getting people to share it for more clicks, and making money in the attention economy. That exposure will drive people to her other socials, to sponsorships, etc. She's so stupid she's probably making a...

Like Baywatch, the best way to watch that is on mute.

Two things can be true...you could both be losing your mind and getting better gas mileage for some reason. It is possible that whatever your equivalent of State Weights & Measures hasn't certified the other station correctly and the pumps are cheating you? Temperature difference when...

None of which has shit to do with the data recorder, which is specifically what I addressed, but you do you. I'm more concerned with the much more common occurrence of somebody lying about who was at fault in a crash than local urban yoots with tech skills seeing whatever you think they are...

If I'm disabling my "black box", doesn't that seem like I assume I'm going to be at fault? I want mine functioning, same reason I have a dashcam. If I'm stupid, it's on me. If they are stupid, it's on them. I'd rather have the evidence then a he said/she said and I'm also willing to accept...

Hacked account now a spambot?

Meh. Wouldn't recommend unless you want to see a lot of truck top tents or you want to camp. Not worth a day pass for the amount of vendors there. If you want to camp with some buddies and hit trails, different story.

Congrats, looks good.

I just did the one day pass, looking forward to it. Anybody else going?

I've only leased when there were lease-only incentives that made it cheaper to lease then buy it out vs just buying it outright. That is not the norm, but does happen occasionally. My wife's car was a bit over $1k cheaper to lease for 13 months then buy it out then it was to just pay cash the...

It's marketing, mostly, and reliant on the tech who checked the boxes to have actually checked the thing the box is for rather than pencil whipping it for even that bit to be useful. I looked at a 'certified' truck that had mud and grass packed in the underside completely obscuring much of the...

I think everybody else got it, but I can break it down like Barney for you: Certain dealers offering a discount on a given vehicle does not speak to the demand level for that vehicle, in this particular thread the Ram RHO. Nobody claimed Granger was $10k off a Bronco at launch. Given the...

Who was strictly speaking of Bronco Raptors? Are you in the right thread? Read the post I initially quoted, then my quote. The relevance seems pretty simple to the conversation actually being had vs whatever you're talking about Braptors.

I left a clickable link in the first post, which goes to the official site. I don't know any more about it beyond that.

Agreed. Even the 5.5' beds on the 1/2 tons looks odd to my eye. Ditch the bed all together and build that Mustang competitor to the Porsche 911 Dakar... I'm sure it would be a low volume seller, but I think it looks like a hoot.

F150 is Ford's centerpiece. The US market largely revolves around it. The Ranger is more of a global platform. Ford will *never* let the Ranger be better than the F-150 in metrics Americans car about because they don't want to cannibalize F-150 sales. Much like Chevrolet will never let a...

I think the interior volume feels reduced as a driver, but how much of that is so much more dash and how much is a second row of people behind you with more room, I don't know. I did sit in a vanilla Ranger and I didn't find it tight in the slightest. I'm 5'11", for reference. The width was...

Keep in mind today's midsize trucks are yesterday's full size trucks by footprint. A current Ranger Raptor has the exact same width as a 70's or '80s F-150 and falls between a regular cab short bed and regular cab long bed for length. The main difference is how much is cab and how much is bed.

I wanted to like the Gladiator, but it just felt ponderously slow once you got past 40mph or so. If they would put the Hurricane, even the standard output, in it then that may revive sales some. I also don't care about the convertible aspect, so that wasn't a decision point for me. The Mojave...
