    Thank you for the 1 week early Fathers Day wishes!

    Cool as that electric motor combo turnout crazy toruqe and HP, sadly, many people would not put in the proper controller or battery pack and I bet like many of the early conversions, it was less than 100 miles on old battery tech. I get going back to an ICE V8 when you want to drive it long distance. Still a lovely car that with the right battery pack would have been a silent beast off the line around town. Thanks for sharing.

    According to actual stock filing as of the end of Q1, they had $17.141 billion. With all the construction at Texas, Germany and Nevada, that can disappear overnight if payment from various companies was demanded. Cash flow in regards to sales, is a different matter.

    Cash Flow Problem? Hell Yes he does, what part of he just lost $500 Million in Carbon Credit sales with only a $430 Million profit means he is cash positive? If he did not have a sales problem, then he would be selling millions globally rather than a few hundred thousand. The auto business has not been profitable yet if you look at the SEC filings, he had Tesla turning a profit due to Carbon Credit sales to other auto makers and now that the mergers have addressed those needs, the sales have stopped, so yes, Tesla has a Cashflow problem.

    Ford released on Tuesday June 8th 2021 the All-New Ford Maverick. A name plate that once graced a compact car is back now on a mini-pickup truck. Ford is coming out of the gates swinging for a home run and seems to be hitting all cylinders by making this a FWD Hybrid as Standard with AWD as an upgrade. Ford hits this market reborn with four clear points about the benefits of the Maverick. All-new Ford Maverick is the first standard full-hybrid pickup in America and the most fuel-efficient truck on the market with a targeted EPA-estimated rating of 40 mpg in the city*; while its compact size makes it easy to maneuver and park, there’s room for five adults and plenty of storage space Maverick offers lots of smart technology, including a standard 8-inch touch screen with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto® compatibility, standard FordPass™ Connect with embedded modem and Ford Co-Pilot360™ technologies like Automatic Emergency Braking and Automatic High Beam Headlamps – all for a starting MSRP of $19,995 The Maverick FLEXBED™ system provides organization and cargo solutions to fit owners’ lifestyles, with a multi-position tailgate, slots to use lumber to subdivide the bed, 12 available anchor points, two 12-volt 20-amp prewired sources at the back enabling DIY electrical solutions, plus two available 110-volt outlets for powering a laptop or tailgate party Built Ford Tough durability and capability means 1,500 pounds of payload capacity – equal to 37 bags of 40-pound mulch; standard hybrid provides 2,000 pounds of towing to haul personal watercraft to the lake, while the optional 2.0-liter EcoBoost® gas engine can tow up to 4,000 pounds, enough to bring a typical 23-foot camper on a weekend getaway The Maverick is a standard five-passenger, four-door pickup with full-hybrid powertrain with an EPA-estimated rating of 40 mpg city and 500 miles of range on a single tank. This is based on the Mavericks 13.8 gallon tank, using the combined 37 mpg estimated rating, final EPA released figures will be out later in 2021. Per Ford, they wanted a truck that would beat some of the best compact cars out there like the Honda Civic with better fuel economy and challeneged their team to start conceptualizing what that would look like and since the Concept stage have stayed very true to the images. Fords truck group marketing manager believes the Maverick will challenge the status quo on what an economical pickup can be with a compelling message and feature list that will make many questions why they would want a compact car compared to a compact pickup truck all starting at under $20,000 dollars. Starting from the City, the Maverick is the solution to getting away economically for a day of fun in the mountains. Camping, boating or playing on the water is what the Maverick can handle in spades. The Maverick is also an excellent truck for those home improvement projects be they in the yard or home remodel, the Maverick can handle it. The Ford Flexbed is the most versatile truck bed out there for compact trucks. The bed is designed with a unique set of standard features and opportunity to transform the cargo box into a complete makerspace giving the owner a complete custom organizational storage solution with secure cargo features. The Flexbed comes with two tie-downs, four D-rings and built in threaded holes in the sides to bolt in new creations. By using 2x4 or 2x6s you can slot these pieces of wood into sections that are stamped into the bed allowing for a variety of ways to customize the Flexbed. This 4.5 foot long bed can carry 1,500 pounds of payload and comes with a built in 110V outlet for all your DIY electrical projects including a compressor compartment. There is 400 watts of power starting with the Bed, inside the cab that can pretty much power anything. All-New-Ford-Maverick-Flexbed-B-Roll.mp4 The interior comes like all Ford products with a wide range of customization depending on trim level that covers from Backup Camera viewing to storage under the rear seat for tools and can even hold your mountain bike. Easy and flexible enough for anyone to use. One will find an 8 inch touch screen as standard that supports both Apple and Android compatibility and the standard FordPass Connect with embedded modem and Wi-Fi for up to 10 devices along with the Ford Co-Pilot 360. For a comparison of the Trims, look at the press released PDF file. Maverick-Trim-Comparisons.pdf The Ford Maverick sports the Iconic Ford Pickup Truck Styling. This truck launches with three trim levels, XL, XLT and Lariat. You will also be able to add the FX4 package to the AWD XLT or AWD Lariat versions giving one a more aggressive off-road capability. First edition models are the only thing available for 2021. These will be built off the Lariat trim level and include unique graphics on the hood and lower doors, high-glass black painted roof, soft tonneau covers, body-color door handles, high-gloss black skull caps and bloss black painted and machined 18" wheels for Hybrid or unique 17" aluminum wheels for gas models. Unique to the First Year Edition Mavericks will be three colors only, Carbonized Grey, Area 51 black and Rapid Red.

    Been a while since I posted anything about Cora. She had her Aunt come to visit as the Dog breeder had to go to her parents to deal with some things so she asked, Lisa and Renee said sure, Uno, Cora's Aunt come to visit, pregnant and all. Cora wanted to play, but Uno was in no mood to play. Just wanted to lay around. Course Sunday morning Uno water broke and labor and at 1:24am monday morning new little Golden Sausages were born. Breeders Husband plays piano to help sooth the dogs. 58395.3gp Very cool exrays of the puppies before they came.

    Cute dog, so humble for a male. Glad that the couple decided to do the right thing and take him in. Worth it, so many animals and humans in the world that just want love and to belong. Glad they took care of him and thank you for posting it. For sure this would be good in the dog thread we started.

    Seems now that the Plaid S is out, Tesla has also quietly decided to raise prices on another auto. No anouncement, but if you go to the configurator, base price for a Tesla Model Y is now $500 more. https://insideevs.com/news/513232/us-tesla-modely-price-increase/

    Other than the Chrome, loving the look. Hate the Low Profile run flat tires as that just takes away from the usefulness of the truck.

    More information about "Should Dodge Offer their M28 Hood and Fender Molding Option Again?"
    It is 1971, your in your local Dodge Dealer trying to decide between the Charger or Challenger. As a single adult, you choose the Challenger with the 426 Hemi option. Now comes the next big question, do you order it with the M28 Hood and Fender trim package or not? If so, which hood option do you go with and do you go coupe or convertible? Even today, these rare pony cars are now bringing in big bucks if you have them with matching numbers, restore them and take them to auction. Yet those are the pony cars of the past and now we have todays Chargers and Challengers with modern monster versions of the Demon, SRT, etc. to name a few and still one thing is missing. The factory option of the Hood and Fender molding. A Artist and 3D modeller with a passion for American Muscle Cars was asked by his daughter what he thought a modern take on the M28 Hood / Fender molding might look like if Dodge was to offer one today. He took to it with gusto and came up with the following that he posted to Instagram. https://www.instagram.com/p/CP0wnWqlAth/ As such he did the models in various colors which you can check out at the link above and figured a modern Glory Model with the Supercharger would be the way he would go if he was Dodge. So the question being asked here especially for those muscle car enthusiast, what do you think of this take and should Dodge offer this package again for the current lineup of Charger/Challenger auto's? The designer posted the various pictures with the following: Last time i made a car for my girl made me think that i probably going to make this Glory name as a brand like hennessey or saleen or shelby. So heres my Glory concept of the Challenger, this is a remastered version of my original bodykit design back in 2019, new front bumper design, new rear diffuser lower valance, and new Blower Scoop on the hood bulge ? Its also have new supercharger with Glory signature carbon plenum. With goals to make this capable of 1000hp.. the Glory Challenger will be a production ready tuned challenger, probably with better handling package as well, since it has wider widebody, wider tires. With the glory challenger i want to bring back the good old Muscle car key design element back, the front facia will have a chrome like the old 70 Charger or body color option. The blower scoop is integrated into the hood with active butterflies that open with computer controlled valve. quad exhaust, and thicker rear wheels for better grip at the quarter mile. I really wish this Glory name could be my performance brand one day. A new breed of Streetmachines What do you think about this concept?

    Seems many are starting to rethink Tesla, over half of the investment community has changed from buy to Hold or sell on Tesla after their stock has dropped 15% this year equal to 2019 and seems now that the Plaid S is out, Plaid S+ is canceled making some Tesla Fans concerned. Seems the new battery tech also now will not show up in the Plaid. Tesla (TSLA) Elon Musk Splashy Event May Underwhelm as Battery Questions Loom - Bloomberg Seems also bothering Wall Street is the lack of a COO and any succession plan for Musk if anything was to happen to him. Tesla desperately needs a COO or No. 2 for Elon Musk (msn.com) On top of this, at the event, yes blamed on higher material costs, but an immediate price in crease by $10,000 for Plaid S reservation people. The Plaid S will now start at $129,990 compared to a Long range Model S at $79,990 starting price. Tesla Luxury Model S Plaid Hits the Road With Higher Price Tag (msn.com) Crazy price increases, stock down 4.81% in June on top of the 15% down through the end of May. No succession in leadership, executive leaders leaving the company. Battery Day was a bomb per Wall Street, New 4680 battery cells are missing in action, UltraCapacitor Maxwell bought in 2019 for $200 million for their tech to make Tesla go faster and longer is still missing. Tesla acquires ultracapacitor and battery manufacturer for over $200 million - Electrek One has to wonder / question about the leadership in Tesla right now and for future products.
