    I remember my first time at the Chicago Auto Show. I still have the picture of me in the 1794 Tundra when it was brand new. Also Jeep had wranglers and grand cherokees going on an offroad course indoors. This was 2012 or 13 I believe

      They do it because people are dumb enough to buy it. Let them suffer for 1 year, no one buys and people make it clear that no matter how good the product is that they aren't fools with a pen.
      Before they shut their doors and need to sell below sticker price then we can all rush in and buy it to make sure they don't go bankrupt.

      @crewdawg2008 Год назад +30

      Yeah, that's not up to the manufacturer really. Those markups are happening at the dealer level. So, in this case, it isn't Ford doing it, it's the dealerships. This very thing is part of the reason that manufacturers, such as Ford, are looking hard into changing the dynamic between manufacturer, dealer, and customer. Possibly including cutting out dealerships entirely. It remains to be seen how that all shakes out in the end.

    • @Skraals
      @Skraals Год назад +3

      @@crewdawg2008 exactly, but till then, I'd be for unitedly not buying then the manufacturer will have the power to say to their dealers how bad they are and shut them down. Sadly the dealers have been holding the manufacturer in a leash, in my opinion ofc, when it should be the other way around. It be the buyers strike hahahaha.
      I'd wish to buy a ranger raptor to overland, the prices are already going to be insane in canada where I am. Now your saying I got to deal with riddiculous price mark ups from the dealer for a depreciating asset!? Please make it make sense.

    I remembered going to that car show in the early 90’s with my parents. It was on Lincoln’s birthday. I remembered getting into a Geo Metro convertible in yellow. I wanted to go inside of a Geo Tracker but, a lots of teens or early 20’s climbing in and out. I did see a lot of cars, vans, and trucks. I had a blast with my parents for it.

    Perhaps the one thing I enjoyed was actual ford factory workers working the exhibit booths…spoke to a couple who work on the Lightning. I learned that they assemble about 70-80 lightning trucks a day and takes between 20-24 hours to assemble one. Lightning spends 5 minutes 30 seconds per station whereas the normal F150 spends 53 seconds at each station…the daily record is 88 Lightning trucks assembled in one day.

    Only complaint, since I got custom trim, the Suspension isn't good compared to the Z71/ High Country.
    I've got 8k miles, Oil change intervals are 15k/or 1yr whatever comes first.
    I upgraded to Lasfit LED LED lights the whole complete package and what a GREAT upgrade difference it made.
    I will be leveling the truck and upgrading to Bilstein shocks .

    This is one of the best informational automotive videos I have seen to date on the internet. I have a 2015 Mercedes-Benz gl550 twin turbo. My engine looks identical to the vehicle in your video. Lately I have been getting an intermittent check engine light. I took my vehicle to the local auto parts store and had them code read my vehicle. The code showed that ignition coil G is malfunctioning. I want to replace this myself because of the insane cost at the dealership. Is it necessary to disconnect the battery to replace the ignition coil? I saw in previous videos that disconnecting the battery in Mercedes-Benz completely wipes all of the codes, but there's a code saving tool that can be connected to save the codes.

I think this category is a really important market full of motivated buyers that are quietly driving pricing and should not be overlooked in today's economy.

    Honest question....why do so many half tons with really short beds on lots? Are they used for towing? I can't seem to get by with anything less than 6 feet. Even on my 04 Ranger. Glad to see Toyota still offers Tacoma with a 6 foot bed. Nice video.
