>Nissan Frontier is solid, nice they have a naturally aspirated 6. Way over priced for a Nissan.<
I went to Nissan B&P and starting price is only $30k- $4k less than new Ranger. That is for King Cab (SCab) S trim, 4x2- but 5' bed. You have to go to Crew Cab SV trim to get 6' bed (which I really...
Super Crew, short bed only misses the target for me. Only hope now is they continually roll out more options over time like the rest of the world :frown: How is a fleet buyer or tradesman supposed to prefer this over alternatives with a $34k starting price? Head scratcher there. At least this...
only reveal and *maybe* order guides drop tomorrow. Order banks don't open to place order until the 26th if that date stands- we'll probably get confirmation on that tomorrow.
Glad it's worked out for you. Just not something I could live with. Needed at least the 2.0L with AWD (gives added bonus of IRS) and the 4k tow package with upgraded cooling, etc. for my towing purposes and counteract the torque steer of FWD only. Been driving and wrenching for many decades and...
my neighbor had the same experience buying a 2022 4Runner. Didn't want anything on the lot and gave salesperson their specs and was told it would take about a month to come in. Missed, then extended to 2 months, then pushed again and again. Finally showed up a few weeks earlier than the last...
that's my recollection from MTC too. Everyone was looking at Bronco Sport (built on same line in same factory) and to a lesser extent Escape for drivetrain possibilities. The base motor in the BS is the dreaded Dragon 3cyl 1.5L and (I believe) same for Escape. Then you could option up to 2.0L on...
Does your Fusion hybrid have a separate Hi Voltage battery to run the electric motor and power the car without ICE engine on? I've seen plenty of screenshots of Maverick Hybrid dashboards showing "Electric miles" traveled separately from the overall MPG. There is also a separate High Voltage...
no links. Too many buried posts and scrambled threads after 2 + years of posts there. Yes, it is specific to battery degradation, but ability to run the short commutes without any ICE intervention at all seems to be the whole purpose of buying the hybrid in the 1st place for many people.
You may be confusing with the Maverick, or even GM twins. I'm after the same configuration as you. Nothing else interests me or represents upgrade over what I already have. I'm a tiny bit nervous waiting for the reveal, but pretty confident that we'll have what we need here.
Multiple Maverick hybrid owners report issues with their trucks in colder climates on the sister forum. I recall some being efficiency and range related.
what is a Ranger School exactly? I know when they introduced the 5G in USA in 2019, they had several nationwide "driving clinics" where you could sign up in advance and get invite to show up and test drive 1 on a little obstacle course and get all the details. Closest to me back then was 400+...
Also worth noting that any hybrid or BEV range and performance decreases in cold climates. Far less appealing for people living in high elevations with freezing temperatures half the year.
Thank you for the education on PHEV variants on existing vehicles. I don't follow these developments closely. What is the additional price premium above regular hybrid versions of the same vehicles? Maybe we can extrapolate and predict what that would add to a compact or mid-size truck for...
Ford isn't Toyota and loses thousands getting vehicles built and delivered to dealers- which is why they went to build to order system. Toyota pioneered the hybrid space for mass consumption with the Prius and never saw a need to add PHEV, Right? A lot would depend on if there was a price...
I'm a pessimist after the experience buying a Maverick. B&P wasn't ready immediately and you had to show interest with a reservation before any ordering. Ford ordering website got overwhelmed and went down a couple times during open order banks too. No personal experience with the Bronco, but...
