Ford, if y’all are reading this, maybe just let us drive. Try and (Ford) Focus on building a half-way respectable transmission.
It's Ford, I don't think they can. 2000 Ford Escort shifted like someone who didn't know how to drive a manual. Various models from 2018 to 2022ish of trucks / vans, weird as hell shifting choices, harsh shifts, and weird jitters on take off. 2016 Focus, pretty sure the transmission was slipping. It was right around 90k miles.
If you only ever drove Fords, you would think "AGUGGUUUG" was a natural sound for an automatic to make 😂That's innovation, Tesla should take notes!
Pretty sure a '16 Focus would have their DSG transmission, which was a stinker.
I came up with this idea more than 20 years ago as a way for cars to tell each other about events ahead of them. Imagine if you’re on a two-lane road heading away from an deer and you pass vehicles going the opposite direction. Your car could relay that information to then and have it age out after a few minutes.
It’s like flashing your lights at oncoming traffic to warn them of a speed trap ahead
Exactly!
Is that why people randomly flash their lights at me? I just thought they were assholes.
That or you’re driving after dark with your lights off 😅
You probably need to adjust your headlights, or take out the HIDs if you have reflectors
