Not directly at you, but I'm not sure I understand the purpose of that video.

He did seem a little disappointed.. he did miss a great opportunity to comment on commercial off-the-shelf bolts being used to hold the doors on. ?

I agree. Who cares if you can drive the car around with nothing but a 5 gallon bucket as the seat?

I'd like to see someone in the video industry do a "teardown" of Mr. Munro's work.
***using my most nasally voice****
- Ben is obviously not someone who enjoys being on camera, why would Sandy use him for videos?
- The text says to "stay tuned for a quick ride & drive with Ben." Who at Munro Live thinks pulling in and out of a garage is a ride and drive?
- Not a shred of information in that video other than Sandy doesn't understand. He doesn't understand why the module isn't integrated, and why it's vertical. He doesn't understand why the drivers door must be installed for the hatch to work....it's a mystery!

Sorry for the flaming, but wow. This guy isn't doing himself any favors if he's trying to inform or market his company.

I enjoy looking at the disassembled Mach-E and getting a bit of an explanation about the parts that I'm not familiar with in an EV.

His delivery style is what is irritating, and I don't care whether it is something that he is pointing out, positive or negative. It takes a lot to hurt my feelings, and my life isn't wrapped up in Mach-E... so keep making videos, Sandy. He does come across as the kid that always got picked last in kickball, though. ?

When I have folks reach out to me on Linkedin with titles like his... I usually get a laugh. I've also not been able to find his education listed. He certainly implies that he has an engineering degree, but those professional organizations that he lists don't require a degree. I'm not trying to pick on the guy. I just think he comes across like he has a chip on his shoulder, and those details sort of add up (to me).

I think they are trying to see how many systems can go offline and the vehicle still runs.

Ford is one of the industry leaders in Keep Alive systems. There can sometimes be dozens of failures and the vehicle can still run.....many times in a somewhat normal fashion. It is what they are known for in the fleet industry. Ford trucks are especially robust. Many of their software tables have look up values as place holders in case a sensor fails it can still have a value to use to keep the vehicle running.
