Each time they have to retool the line they lose money. Meaning it will cost you more. so every ford being completely different and unique = 12.7 billion dollar loss? or were they just able to do that because they bought rover |

I do dislike that many times to get the top of the line motor, you have to get stuff that really isn't necessary. Now, I'd say it's safe to say that 85% of the time, someone springing for the bigger/more powerful motor is probably interested in power windows, locks, etc. But having to get stupid stuff at the same time, like a moonroof, and seat heaters, stupid things, just serve to annoy me. Hey, i like my heated and cooled seats. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/cool.gif |
i want heated seats and the xenon lights, but you can shove the traction control and yer damn sunroof stick it where the nav system wont find it!
|
ahahahaha yeah i want it my way like mcdonalds lol
|
I just wish I didn't have to buy a sports car or a damn econobox to get a manual transmission. I want to be able to buy any car, truck, SUV, or minivan and get a manual tranny!

you must have really good roads with no traffic to say you only want manuals.
Everytime Im stuck in traffic for a few hours in a manual I curse it and want the auto. |

Even when I drove to work everyday, it was very rare that I spent any time sitting in traffic. But I did live very close to the office. Every once in a while on a trip up 95 I would find it a three-lane parking lot, and granted, first gear, second gear, brake to a stop gets tiresome after the 99,764th time--but it didn't happen very often. I'd like my MPV better if it had a manual tranny. |
automatics are always in the wrong gear!

I don't think I could handle an automatic - I think it's just what you're used to cause I do a lot of city driving.
