More Bronco hear say.

I get that. I'm at work today, just like my wife. The world isn't shutting down. I was mostly addressing the idea of staying home if you felt sick - that can't be the yardstick this time. We have to be a lot more cautious than that in terms of physical contact, hand washing, etc. That's actually particularly true in our case - my wife works in retail pharmacy so she's constantly dealing with sick people, and our son is staying with my parents in their 70's. While we may not have anything significant to fear from getting sick, it could be devastating to them if it's carried into their house through our son.

Just as I thought... no facts. I for one am excited and it's long overdue. This new offering is a gamechanger in it's segment. You can knock it anyway you want... just expect to be called out and be able to cover your stance with facts.

Never been to Wellsville... wasn't really my cup of tea. Most of my off roading has been in purpose built dune buggies. My 4x4 trucks have been basically my adventure vehicles and daily drivers. There are exceptions... We competed at Gravelrama several years and also ran the Pro Truck Series sand drags for a few years. This is our 23T altered dragster running the hill drags at Gravelrama about ten years ago... it took second place in it's class for the weekend.

Fords gonna go bust before 2021, all this bronco excitement will be for nothing ? hopefully not but damn, at 5 bucks for a share of Ford I'm almost tempted to make a couple hundred dollar gamble on buying some.

 

[Saddle Tramp]

$5 a share? Heck, I might buy some.

 

[Dirtman]

What do they share?

 

[Saddle Tramp]

Really bad jokes. ?

 

[1990RangerinSK]

What do they share?

Nothing that you can burn in your furnace.

Maybe we (all of us TRS members) should buy all of the available shares. Maybe we can end up with a controlling interest in the company.

We'd run it into the ground in about 39 seconds.

I think most of us have enough business smarts to keep it going a little longer than that. Then again, I guess it depends on how long it takes before you poop in the furnace, and all of the employees quit in disgust. It'd be hard to run the company after that.

 

[Dirtman]

Oh come on, all anyone around here would do is scrap all current vehicle production and focus on building a solid front axle ranger with a coyote engine and manual transmission. Which will somehow be carbureted because @rusty ol ranger will throw a tantrum during a board meeting if it isnt. Then most of us would get drunk and go play with the robots on the assembly line and @sheep herder would inevitably try to have sex with one of them.

Rusty is already planning on getting rid of fuel injection.

Does all of this happen before, or after you poop in the furnace?

But wait. The solid front axle Ranger would get nixed by me. It was my idea, so I'M the CEO. Sorry, Jim. As compensation, I will give Jim a custom built Ranger, one of a kind, built to his specs. Everybody else has to buy what's on the showroom floor. And, as CEO, I order that current production be kept, but that we add an AWD small wagon, based on the Focus, to be sold alongside the EcoSport. We'll bring back the Taurus as a sedan, for my buddies over at the Taurus Car Club of North America (because they're all crying that the Taurus is gone). And we'll launch the Courier, based on the current Ranger, but a smaller vehicle that can be configured as a regular cab (short or long box) or super cab.

Oh, somebody's howling because they can't get a Ranger with a solid front axle? Well, we'll make one for it, but the stock truck comes with IFS, because IFS handles better on road. SAS will be a special order, but might come at premium cost.

Maybe Dirtman in charge of trucks and you in charge of cars? I like his ideas for the Ranger... Then Jim as the fearless leader can try to keep the two of you from fighting and eating crayons all day.

Nu-uh. Dirtman's trucks won't be comfortable on road. Besides, buying up all of the shares was my idea. *I*'m the CEO. Jim's already accepted his custom built truck in exchange for giving up the CEO position to me.

And, for the record, I do not eat crayons. I'm offended that you would accuse me of such a thing!
