Ford's retarded doors

[iceman302]

Seems the edit tool designer and Ford door designer worked in the same cube!

I hadn't really thought about the source of my frustration with these doors till I read the OP. The other thing I get frustrated with is the front seat belt originating from the back door. I get my daughter all buckled in, in the front seat, and make my next stop, to pick up my son, and he about decapitates her with her seatbelt as he helps himself to opening the rear door. The seatbelts on my F250 originate from the roof, independent of the rear door.

Not on the SCrew.

I thought my truck had lost that nickname. I'm glad to see its still around.

Believe it or not, the 3 versions of "MAGELAN" I tried - CA has 7 digit plates - were all taken.

Probably one of the threads discussing "lube"...

Hey...I work for them.

Damn. OK, I'm retarded as well.

Use Google Chrome and they have a built in spell check for you.

Although it would seem I'm drinking the Ford Kool-Aid lately, I do have one big gripe. These door detents (or stops) were not designed by anyone with a brain. The first detent is completely worthless at about 12"- my kids can't squeeze through that one. The second is at a door crushing 3 feet.

Anything in between and you can't let go without the door swinging out to it's widest opening. Impossible to let go of door when parked next to something to retrieve stuff from my truck.

Stupid ass design, Ford.

Glad to see I'm not the only one with this complaint. ****** me off to all end when I'm trying to squeeze out of the truck after ever so carefully wedging it into it's corner of the garage....

Now that right there was a damn funny post.
Classic Birdman material.

Your truck is Magellan for life. Sucks about the plates being taken.... That would've been awesome.
