  1. Ferrari's "Luce" enters the EV World!!!

    Looks like those geniuses over at Ferrari have invented the world's first perpetual motion machine!
  2. PAAK II

    I haven't touched my fob in about a year. I often approach my car faster than the Mach-e registers the presence of my PAAK, and have to wait a few seconds before the door will open, but I've never once had the issue of the door opening but my car not starting... Very odd behavior!
  3. 2026 Mach-E to drop Mustang from name?

    I almost added "two wings" to my list of Mustang attributes, but I was less confident how much of that association still lingers in the memory of the people today. My point is, Ford can own the brand, but they don't control the meaning. GM can argue "Buick means affordable luxury" all they...
  4. 2026 Mach-E to drop Mustang from name?

    I stand corrected!
  5. 2026 Mach-E to drop Mustang from name?

    I have pointed out to my in-laws that they forgot the "h" when filling out my wife Sara's birth certificate. You are making the mistake of believing Ford actually owns the Mustang brand. They may have created it; they may own certain trademarks even; but the concept belongs to the world and We...
  6. 2026 Mach-E to drop Mustang from name?

    Ahh, the "appeal to authority"... We doing favorite logical fallacies? Mine's the "ad-hominem", you stuck up, half-witted, scruffy-looking nerfherder! As much as I love my Mach-e, no true Scotsman could ever confuse this excellent electric SUV for a real Mustang! :cool:
  7. Very Disappointed in my 2026

    It does make you wonder if the back and passenger seats will be expensive options in the 2027 Mach-e though, and whether the OP will even bother to find out when he returns this car... Dunno why so many folks have been busting the OP's chops on this. I think Ford has lost their damn mind with...
  8. A visit to the Skunkworks (Ford's EVDC) -- behind the scenes tour

    Yeah... After seeing the Maverick, I for one yelled at the F150 Lightning in my browser "why can't you be more like your brother?!?" Maybe Farley heard me. Plenty of trucks be parking in the compact spots - nothing wrong with one that almost fits for a change...
  9. A visit to the Skunkworks (Ford's EVDC) -- behind the scenes tour

    I'm cutting you and Ford off! No more clicks or views until they share actual concrete details, specs, and photos of the new truck. :cool:
  10. Radar detector mounting locations ideas

    Note for owners of the Rally GT - Because it has the steel roof, Ford decontented the IRR shielded glass, you y'all can mount your radar where you like without regards for the "communications window". I get 360 alerts on all bands from my Uniden R8 mounted just below the communications window...
  11. DIY cargo floor bracket repair

    "Good as new - Still weak design" Love it! ;-)
  12. Is there an "Easy" Subwoofer Upgrade?

    Looks perfect. Here're those posi-taps I used for the install - really made installation a breeze!
  13. Is there an "Easy" Subwoofer Upgrade?

    It's a switched and fused 20amp circuit - I've been running this 300w RMS sub off it since last February and have never had any issues. Very happy with the setup, though I doubt I push it all that hard. Theoretical Calculation: 150 Watts / 12 Volts = 12.5 Amps. Real-World Usage: Because...
  14. Finally Delivered! Anyone else putting a spare tire in the trunk?

    Methods vary. For example, my wife 's method of measuring threads is to take the bolt to Home Depot and try every nut in every drawer on the fastener aisle! :cool:
  15. My 2-day project: illuminated Homelink buttons (TLDR)
