Find it myself? I’m
Saying it isn’t there he’s saying it is. How am I supposed to find it myself. Think first post second.

Don’t you have something better to do than come on here and bicker with everyone?

Lets try to keep our discussion respectful and useful moving onward. There is a lot of knowledgeable users and let’s not discourage them from posting.

When someone is asking me
To find something myself that I never claimed existed, It deserves a response.

At the end of the day its a bad look and boils down to greed.

removing the shift light was really dumb as the markings literally serve no purpose as you really don't know which position the selector is in unless looking at the dash. It does not kill me but it feels broken in a way.


I understand reducing cost but on a flagship top end ford vehicle these petty moves should not take place, as far as the people that say well 20 cents is so much multiplied by so many trucks, yes it is but it does not change anything, its still bad for the consumer which we are, vote with your wallet they will change.

Sadly I've seen it on tesla model s cars at $120k+ over the years. Not in such a in your face noticeable way but little things under the hood and behind panels. Great vehicle by the way, nothing pulls as hard as a P100D luda.

Having driven a P100D in Luda+ mode I agree 100%

That said, I was bored with the car after about 15 min. Aside from it’s super cheap interior that’s on par with a Honda Accord (not one of a $100k+ car), the lack of engine noice, and no shifting bores me.

It was also disappointing that at around 90mph the car begins to fall flat on its face. Unavoidable for a one gear electric car, but Porsche has figured it out with the Taycan and it’s 150mph (or higher?) top speed, that goes along with a quality German car interior.

I guess I am used to driving manual and not ever looking at the gears... I go by feel in my shifting... almost never look at either column or display... I guess I am luck I never go into the wrong gear, I have a backup camera I am looking for when I go in reverse and two clicks down in drive... the force is strong with me.

Yeah when first purchased i got bored quick the. Over the next week it became appealing , it def takes some time getting used to. Newer interiors are better. I just sold a 2018 and have a 2020 on order , crossing fingers its for the better

I operate on factual information , calm the hell down dude. Hes not a god

I am calm :pimp: duude, I don't let ********** actually get under my skin, but I am also very comfortable calling them out. Would you like me to post my pulse and respiration rates for you for proof since you are a factual operator? Sorry I don't have any surveys or research to prove it for you. Say hi to Adam Schiff when you see him tomorrow. :manos:
