A new house roof... and well... in 32 hours.

Time will tell.

Agreed. While this is still apples & oranges, but this timing is an indication that price wars are potentially coming. I went and checked Tesla.com. Fully loaded, five-seat Model Y = $58, 290 (including remaining available federal rebate). My First-Edition MME, $60,300 (not including $7,500...

A good old fashioned price war, just before reservations convert! https://www.cnbc.com/2020/05/27/tesla-to-cut-car-prices-in-north-america-and-china.html

Argumentative, for the sake of being...? Until I saw the other slightly snarky post about NA plant restart, I hadn't bothered replying... Commenting like that just solidifies the "Ugly Americans" opinion. Hope our paths never cross when you're daydreaming at billboards.

Concur. Even in Model 3, these features seem fairly crude. I didn't care for the wandering when road markings aren't exactly perfect. The only reason I can see for self-driving is "Get me to the nearest hospital".

January 6th, after hearing that brochures were available, I went to my dealership (selected at reservation time) and they said there were no brochures, and that more will be known between August and October. Upon leaving, I drove seven miles away, to a different dealership and picked a brochure...

I currently own a 2010 Volvo XC60 and have for the past five years. Love it. However, the occasional surprise at service can take your breath away.

Please don't mistake me for overlooking safety. Conversely, that current engineering can overcome it all. Driving is mostly physics, and engineering cannot overcome every scenario. There have been multiple fatalities in Tesla Model S... it wasn't their fault. It is possible to get caught up...

Just glad Ford is involved in the effort to build ventilators. Right now, THAT and our patience is what matters. Shiny new cars will happen when the time is right. Be safe everyone!

[No snarkiness, just how I perceive cars] ROI is never the reason to buy any car, ever. The Bullitt Mustang is such a rare example, and then generally unapproachable to 99.99% of us. That said, most any vehicle since the mid-1960's can comfortably get us from Point A to Point B at highway...

In due course. I trust Ford and local governments to decide when it’s safe for workforces (around the world) to return. Whether Poland, Mexico, US, or elsewhere - like the vaccine itself, or treatment therapies; getting this vehicle and the global supply chain back into production will take...
