Another reason I am buying a Ford
Hmmmmm....... You may be right in buying a Ford but not for this reason. Ford was the primary mover in getting the Trump EPA to revoke the MPG standards. Not that Ford was alone. This is a great article describing what happened when the Trump Administration gave the automakers the lower fuel standards they had been clamoring for (aka what happens when the dog actually catches the car). https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2018/06/how-the-carmakers-trumped-themselves/562400/

Tell your friend that advertising that you lack a sense of humor is never a good thing! :D
I guess I'm waiting for the day Archer does car commercials. I laugh out loud all the time watching that show.

These are great. The response by Dr. Mark Eaken, whoever he is, is hilarious. The nav part is a winner.

Given the time frames, the Audi commercial suggests there was some collaboration.

All good.
Thank you. I have my moments.

Thought Ford did not join others and Trump in trying to revoke California standards.

Yes after leading the charge to revoke the CAFE standards. If Ford is great because it signed off on the agreement with CARB then GM is the hero now for announcing it's going all electric. Or how about VW for pushing ahead with BEVs after getting nailed for cheating with its diesels? Definitely a mixed bag.

The only company which can be uniformly criticized is probably Toyota. LOL

Since I am coming off a Toyota, that makes me feel good too.

Pineapple and any kind of pork is the perfect pizza
there are people, especially in Chicago, that would shoot you where you stand for saying that. ???

I am not one of them mind you.

I don't discriminate when it comes to pizza but I am partial to the savory and sweet.

EDIT to stay somewhat on topic: I will definitely be removing the frunk divider so pizzas don't smell up the car (as much as I love pizza...stale pizza car smell the next day is not my favorite)
