have seen the "you really bought a tesla?" post a couple times now and it's another one of those things that I think people often have misconceptions about
1. the cheapest Tesla (model 3) was the world's bestselling electric car from 2018 to 2020, when it was ousted by the 2nd-cheapest Tesla (model Y). the model Y was the single best selling car in the world in the first quarter of 2023. they are very popular.
2. the cheapest Tesla is $40,240 new. with the $7,500 tax credit for electric vehicles, a price tag of $32,740 puts it on par with the Honda Odyssey minivan's base price or with slightly nicer trims of SUVs like the Subaru Outback or Toyota RAV4, and only about $100 more than a new Prius Prime. People in California may also qualify for an additional $2000-$5000 rebate for buying one, bringing the price down to $27,740 - just $1000 more than a new Toyota Camry.
3. the concerns about safety are often weighted against an incorrect baseline - so far, current data show that electric vehicles aren't more likely to catch fire in an accident than gas vehicles and are actually less likely to do so (but this is difficult to get solid data on. there's a bunch of articles reporting on a study by an insurance company showing a massive reduction in fire risk but the underlying data are highly suspicious).
4. the big point of distrust that I think is grounded: recalls. some of the 22 (22!) model 3 recalls are ~trivial, like "the driver's side sun visor may be missing the airbag warning sticker", but some are more serious, like "the airbags might not be correctly connected to the car." it seems like a lot of the issues have been addressed on the current (2023-2027) line, but the recurring problems with things ranging from minor software issues to pretty serious function issues are good cause for concern. None of the ones I've read about seem as severe as Toyota's "oops the accelerator gets stuck and your car can't stop moving forward" recall or Ford's "oops the engine explodes" recalls [plural], and even the worst ones are on par with things we've seen before especially from US automakers (glaring at Ford, GM, and Ford again). Ford and GM are both guilty of continuing to use known bad parts for >5 years with (in one case) thousands of fires and (in another) over a hundred deaths. moreover, GM's Bolt EV is under a 100% recall for the 2017-2022 model years for high fire risk and Ford recalled over 100,000 hybrids for fire risk - so is Tesla worse than GM or Ford? I don't know if I'd say that, but I'd really want a car I buy to live up to a higher standard.
in short, the most popular teslas by a huge margin are the two most affordable ones, which are fairly accessible to consumers (especially in California). the risk of a tesla exploding or catching on fire is not, as far as I can tell, higher than other cars (and it appears to be less likely per million miles traveled than some other EVs on the market). teslas still have a bunch of quality issues, and they still have some stupid design choices - but you can easily buy a shittier car for a lot more money, particularly an American-made one.

Well as I am almost done with the original track update, someone on this forum sent me 2 tracks asking to take a look at them. They are basically broken and useless for now. I got to thinking, maybe just MAYBE I can take my track editing to another level. I want to try and fix the 'broken' tracks of NR2003. So i wanted to see if you guys could send me tracks via links on this thread. Maybe this can bring some of the other nr2003 players back to this community or even new people to the game. I'm not sure, but I would like to try and fix these tracks! Not sure when or even if I can fix them but I am willing to try over time. Also, tracks that need graphics updates or mips and such might be last on my list. I've been wanting to learn how to do all of that and I have somewhat of an idea not am not experienced with that yet. So with that being said send me any links you have! The message I received was for Melbourne. So i am working on that track and it is a pain! Haha.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know I haven’t blogged in months. It should be expected by now, lol. There’s been a ton of things that’s happened since my last blog, much too many to write about here. Basically in the end, a bunch of things went down, none of it really bad, and I just neglected the blog for a while, and I’ll end up neglecting it again. But as the title of this post suggests, I’m slowly returning to my old ways. What does that actually mean to anyone that reads this? Well, let me think here…
I’m a fan of the racing sim NASCAR Racing: 2003 Season (NR2003), this blog was intended to showcase work I do for the game, provide me a private space to share files, and allow me to blog any ongoing projects. Instead I kinda posted a lot of stuff on other topics, which I’m sure I’ll do in the future as well, but hopefully not as much. So with that said, I’ve been working on a project that is mainly intended for NR2003, but anyone can enjoy this one. I’ve been making some new Sprint Cup Series models. It’s a big project for me, 5 makes in total. I just got tired of not having something that was much more accurate to the real cars to play with. Originally I wanted to get back into painting a few cool cars I seen from the 2016 NASCAR season, and I found out the models we had, just were not accurate. It forced me to change the scheme a bit, much of which was a pain because it really was quite a intricate paint job. so much of what I recreated after using photos for reference didn’t fit on the model. This was the reason why I quit painting cars in the first place. So instead of doing a half-ass conversion and ruining the original artist’s interpretation, I decided I’d just go ahead and make my own damn model. I made the Chevy SS and was just gonna leave it at that, but I had a lot of fun that I haven’t had in a long while so I decided to make even more models. In the end, I made 5 models total, the 2016 Chevy SS, 2016 Dodge Charger, 2016 Ford Fusion, 2016 Toyota Camry, and even the 2018 Toyota Camry. The models were a blast to make, especially the Charger. Seeing Dodge pulled out of NASCAR a few years back, I had freedom to kinda freestyle how I think it would look in NASCAR trim. And I feel I nailed the look. Even if I didn’t, the model looks bad ass nonetheless.
You can’t be a NASCAR fan and not love the looks of that, lol. So far, the bodies are complete, the mapping is mainly complete, though I might have to add a couple of things before release, and I’m almost done with the chassis and interior for the Chevy. These models, once finished, will be posted online for all to enjoy. I will be including the models (3ds Max 2009, 8 formats and obj), textures, and whatever else is required. They will be free to use for non-commercial use only, so you can use them in other games, apps, or whatever as long as you’re not profiting from them in any way, shape, or form. And you can bet your ass, they work in NR2003, I’ve already tested them in there. I did this once before with the Xfinity Series cars. only difference is they did not have any textures, it was just the bodies, rollcage, and wheels. In fact, here’s the link if anyone wants them…
These weren’t perfectly modeled, but they’re pretty damn good. In fact, I’ve actually started updating the models a little because I came across some reference to help make them way more accurate. But I won’t be able to get to them all till a while after I’m done with the Sprint Cup Series models.

So for now, this is what I’ve been doing with my time. I’ve returned to my NR2003 roots, and man I can’t wait till this project is finished and people can get a up close and personal look at these models. I hope people get to enjoy them as much as I enjoyed making them. Catch ya’s later. 🙂

6 Important Things You Need to Do After Buying A Lemon Car
Tumblr media
In a list of pricy purchases that are alleged to last, a car tops the list. It’s alleged to be an enduring purchase. So, when your newly bought car spends longer during a mechanic’s garage than on the road or maybe in your own garage, then you’ve landed yourself a lemon.
No one likes getting to the mechanic and it’s worse once you just bought your car. However, there comes some extent when the repairs are too constant and you’re left wanting to act. you've got the facility to advocate for yourself when it involves seeking a refund or demanding the dealer to shop for back the lemon.
Here’s an inventory of strategies which will assist you when buying a lemon car:
Ask yourself if your car may be a lemon
Just because a car breaks down and annoys you doesn’t mean it’s a lemon. For it to be classified together, it must regularly fail a group of standards covered by the warranty. You’ll also know that it’s a lemon if you still bring your car to a mechanic and he’s unable to form an enduring repair or determine where the difficulty is coming from.
Know why lemons occur
Tumblr media
Lemons occur because it’s not a financially sound business strategy to form a line of cars that never break down or got to get replaced. this is often a daily occurrence.
In 2018 alone, there have been reports to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration about lemons. The list included the following:
Jeep Compass with faulty dash backlighting
Chevy Equinox with faulty gear shaft and driveshaft reports
Honda Accord with malfunctioning breaks
Toyota Camry with acceleration issues
The list isn’t an exaggeration and it isn’t a matter of your budget being at stake, too. It’s more about your life or the lives of your family being compromised.
Know the law
Simple aggravation doesn’t count. If your car annoys you, that doesn’t make it qualify as a lemon. There are specific conditions like repeated failing repairs, excessive time at the mechanic and other conditions that your car must meet to qualify as a lemon. And these criteria vary from state to state.
Be aware that cosmetic defects aren’t covered by the lemon law. Any surface damages from negligence, abuse or vandalism that's indirectly connected to the manufacturer aren’t counted also. It also doesn’t cover any additions or alterations you made to your car, like adding a spoiler or a replacement audio system.
Support your case
Tumblr media
Time is against you within the case of owning a lemon. you would like to act fast if you would like to form sure that your case is processed and you receive compensation. While this varies counting on the state you're in, this usually gives you roughly two years to form a claim.
Be careful because some states will check out the odometer as an indicator of responsibility. So, it’s always better to require care of this sooner instead of later. Record any cost of repairs, keep receipts, and make a journal illustrating the times your car was within the shop.
Once you're uninterested with the repairs, approach your dealer and request a refund, buyback or replacement. If the dealer refuses, make another request in writing. Remember to be polite as this may benefit you within the end of the day. If they still say no, then it’s time to believe an attorney.
Understand the compensation
There are generally three options dealers must do to rectify things consistent with the lemon law:
Replacement: Here, your current lemon is replaced with a replacement car. If you opt to hunt the assistance of a lawyer on this, the fees for the lawyer are paid by the dealer directly.
Return: during this case, the dealer purchases your car from you, allowing you to shop for a special car. Again, if you seek the help of a lawyer, the dealer pays the arbitration fees directly.
Cash: If you’re okay with owning a lemon but believe a cash payout would be more beneficial, then the dealer can award you a sum. during this case, the lawyer fees begin of that compensation.
Seek legal support
Tumblr media
While anyone is capable of seeking compensation via the lemon law alone, a lawyer will help expedite the method. you're ready to complain to the govt, attend court, or maybe sue without a lawyer but having one will streamline the method. Remember, there are dealers out there which will drag this process out.
Having a lawyer, especially when the fees are covered by the dealer, will help confirm you're justly rewarded for your troubles. Plus, they’re ready to tell you directly if you've got a robust case.
Lemonade rather than just a lemon
Lemon law isn't widely known. most of the people think that if you purchase a nasty car, you’re simply cursed with it. the truth is that there are laws in situ to guard consumers and confirm that companies don’t cash in of them by intentionally selling defective products or products that would potentially be deadly.
These laws vary from state to state but are designed to be encompassed within the protection they provide to consumers. And while it's possible to travel at it alone, there’s no downside to hiring a lawyer. At worse, you get support through this process and at the best, you begin with a far better deal than you had getting into, all with barely, if any, fees.

THE KIA OPTIMA 2019: ALWAYS SO REFINED!
TEST OF THE KIA OPTIMA 2019: ALWAYS SO REFINED!
Tumblr media
THE KIA OPTIMA 2019: ALWAYS SO REFINED!
Its appearance is closer to that of the Stinger
If in 2018, the Kia Optima seemed to be struggling to keep pace with the Honda Accord or the Toyota Camry - both deeply renewed that year - the renewal that benefits the Optima 2019 makes it a world of good. The latter displays nice changes that allow it to remain competitive in the class of intermediate sedans, which we do not hide, is a segment a little crowded in recent years.
Small changes that change the game
Optima is available in three trim levels, the LX (and LX +), EX (and EX Tech) and SX (and SXL); our test car was the EX, equipped with the Tech Package, which adds a panoramic sunroof, an eight-inch screen for the multimedia system, ventilated front seats and wireless charging.
From the outside, the Optima 2019 comes in the form of an elegant sedan, with a sleek roofline and a well-proportioned set.
Tumblr media
THE KIA OPTIMA 2019: ALWAYS SO REFINED!
A small styling update has been made at the front and rear fascias, new headlights have been integrated, and the model has a new wheel design. The biggest change, however, is the muzzle of the car, which is now more like the Kia Stinger sport sedan. A new choice of 16 ", 17" or 18 "wheels is offered to the buyer depending on the version chosen.
Inside, this sedan signed Kia offers a rather impressive space and very well equipped. In recent years, one of the great strengths of the Altima is the environment it offers that is similar to the more luxurious models seen out of German factories. Although many of its rivals have narrowed the gap in sophistication and build quality, the Optima in 2019 is doing very well, again. 
  The dashboard has been slightly redesigned to make it a little more modern; I found the instrumentation quite clear and well organized as a whole. All versions of the Optima include heated front seats, and the seats are leather from the EX.
The seats are comfortable and of good quality, as is the whole interior, by the way. The space around the rear seats is perhaps a little reduced in comparison with some of the other cars in its class, especially at the head level, however nothing very disabling.
Tumblr media
THE KIA OPTIMA 2019: ALWAYS SO REFINED!
Like Hyundai, Kia incorporates in its new affordable models features previously reserved for high-end variants. On this side Kia strikes hard to stand out and the least we can say is that it works.
We find the Apple CarPlay integration and Android Auto, no surprises. There is also the push button starter and security updates that have been put in place. There is also front collision alert, automatic emergency braking, Lane Keeping Assist, Attention Assistance and Blind Spot Assist.
This set makes the Optima one of the safest vehicles in its class, while many competitors who do not hesitate to charge some of these options already present in the Optima. The 2019 millet has received the highest safety rating from the IIHS in the US - but beware, this Top Safety Pick + designation only applies to SX variants equipped with available LED headlights.
One of the big news is the implementation of a UVO multimedia system that can integrate with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. The EX versions of the Optima 2019 feature the UVO Intelligence system that allows you to diagnose the vehicle on demand and make maintenance alerts.
Tumblr media
THE KIA OPTIMA 2019: ALWAYS SO REFINED!
Under the bonnet
On the mechanical side, the base EX version and the LX variant feature a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine developing 185 horsepower and 178 lb-ft in conjunction with a six-speed automatic transmission. The SX version is powered by 245 hp and 178 lb-ft of torque thanks to a 2.0-liter four-cylinder turbocharged engine.
In terms of fuel consumption, the Kia EX officially consumes 9.7 km and 7.1 km / 100 km (city / highway), although my driving week has been with temperatures below freezing. and quite a bit of snow on the road, when I approached these numbers. My total at the end of my week was 11.1 l / 100 km, whereas I estimate I drove in an urban environment about 70% of the time.
Optima's performance in consumption is expected to be much better in the spring, summer, and fall, and even more so for motorists who spend more of their time on major highways than me.
Not to mention that the Kia Optima offers a hybrid version and a rechargeable hybrid version with an average autonomy of 47 kilometers in 100% electric mode, which is even higher than what is found in the average.
Tumblr media
THE KIA OPTIMA 2019: ALWAYS SO REFINED!
One might have feared that the 2019 Optima would suffer from a six-speed transmission that has become obsolete, but I finally found that this box is not so big a thorn as that. The reports go smoothly for relaxed driving and the downshift is fast. The vehicle has more than three modes of driving, normal, eco and sport.
The initial acceleration provided by the powertrain XE, although it is not bright, is more than acceptable for a sedan whose first vocation is still not deliver extreme sensations. That said, the sport suspension and the D-shaped sport steering wheel that can be delivered (with SX versions) can add an extra dose of spice. In this case, there are also pallets mounted on the steering wheel.
The competition has been renewed, too.
The Kia Optima plays in the same sandbox as the Honda Accord, the Toyota Camry and the Hyundai Sonata, three models that have also been recently remodeled. Who insists on advanced technologies and modernity is not lacking in choice in this category that is full of talent, while it continues to lose feathers against crossovers and SUVs.
Will the Optima be able to defend its corner of the market? One thing is certain, the car has all the assets to do it. Consumers will have the last word, though, and I wonder if the lack of a full-time all-wheel drive system will ultimately drive Canadian consumers to a model like Nissan's 2019 Altima. , whose new generation recently unveiled benefits from such a system.
In terms of rates, the base LX receives a price of $ 26,595, the LX + starts at $ 29,095. It rises to $ 31,295 for the EX and to $ 35,145 when the Tech package is added. The SX Turbo costs at least $ 38,045, while the SXL Turbo receives a starting price of $ 40,645.
The Kia Optima 2019 takes advantage of several changes that make it a real competitor now. Without it totally impressing the gallery in one aspect or another in particular, this car is practical, comfortable and attractive. Ideal for those who love sedans everyday. It remains an impressive sedan that can be driven every day safely and comfortably. The dashboard controls are well designed and organized to make life easy for both drivers and passengers.

2023 Nissan Maxima: The Next-Gen Nissan Maxima Review
2023 Nissan Maxima You may know the Nissan Maxima as a bland sedan brand, destined to become a fleet car for rental companies or taxi services. Over the years, the car did have a few decent versions, among them the SR, which was supposed to be a sportier variant of the mediocre front-wheel-drive mid-size sedan.
Tumblr media
To make matters worse, the Maxima dropped the manual option in 2008 and, since then, the powerful 3.5-liter V-6 has had to work with the crippled CVT unit. However, the Nissan Maxima 2023 has the potential to be an attractive proposition. This is the reason.
It was initially believed that the current eighth-generation Maxima would be discontinued sometime in the next two years. This belief was further strengthened by the decline in sales of large sedans, in response to increasing demand for crossovers and SUVs. However, the data shows that not all car owners join the SUV/crossover.
For example, 42 percent of Ford Focus and Chevrolet Cruze owners do not upgrade to a high-riding vehicle. Instead, they choose another similar vehicle from another automaker, which is often a Toyota Corolla or Honda Civic.
Despite the crossover/SIV craze, sedans, whether they're compact, mid-size, or full-size, still make up a sizeable percentage of the automotive market. In addition, the sedan has become more versatile than ever. So, how is the Nissan Maxima related?
Maxima hasn't been offered in Europe, for almost two decades, but this may change. Given that compact sedans have become bigger than ever, certain models have become obsolete.
For example, Toyota discontinued the Avensis, positioned above the Corolla, in favor of a smaller Corolla (not much smaller nowadays). This in turn leaves room for larger models, which is why the Toyota Camry returned to the European market in 2018, after a long absence.
This means that the 2023 Nissan Maxima could once again become a global model. Plus, the Maxima has already gone through a mid-cycle refresh, in 2019, so you can bet it'll be around for a longer time. Hopefully not as long as the GT-R and 370Z.
According to the Motor1 article, 2022 could also spawn a fully electric version of the Nissan Maxima. However, that probably won't happen until 2025, when the model is rumored to be undergoing a complete redesign.
The current generation Nissan Maxima looks a bit sportier and more distinctive than the previous generation, some of which have a very conservative styling. If the Maxima 2023 is indeed influenced by the Nissan V-Motion concept, this means a more futuristic and sporty interpretation of the current design.
The Maxima could also be a four-door coupe or liftback (hatchback) in some corners, similar to the Kia Stinger or Fastback Peugeot 508. However, this will most likely happen after 2025.
One thing is for sure, the Maxima has become a pretty fast car, even with a CVT. The 0 to 60 mph time of the current generation is 5.7 seconds and on a good day, the Maxima proves it can run with the Nissan Skyline R32 GT-R.
For the engine, the Maxima is expected to still use the 3.5-liter VQ35DE V-6 engine, which has the potential to produce a little power. A prize, the engine produces 300 horsepower and 261 pound-feet (354 Nm).
Maxima's biggest weak point is the gearbox, which is a CVT. While it's great for fuel economy, it doesn't quite match the pretensions of a sportier car.
This is the bad news. While Nissan currently has options when it comes to automatic transmission options, the 2023 model could still feature a CVT gearbox. Nissan did come with a heavy-duty toroidal CVT that has a greater torque capacity, but it might only be featured on pick-up trucks and SUVs. We still think the Maxima should have a manual option or at least a proper automatic like the Mercedes-derived nine-speed automatic.
Now, more than ever, it makes sense for the Nissan Maxima to, once again, become a global model. With Nissan's current pricing strategy, the Japanese sporty sedan has the potential to generate great value for money, not only in the North American market but globally as well.
However, the CVT had to go if the Maxima wanted to reenact its sporty character. While the Nissan Maxima 2023 is partly a mystery, we'll likely get more of the same, until a complete redesign comes out, in 2025.

2022 Toyota Camry XSE Hybrid Review
Standard safety features include automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, lane departure warning with steering assistance, adaptive cruise control and automatic high beams.TechnologyThe base LE has a standard 7.0-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, but the higher-end finishes come with a 9.0-inch touchscreen. A 4.2-inch digital instrument cluster is also standard, while a 7.0-inch unit is included in some finishes.
Six speakers are standard, but a new JBL speaker system is available as an option.What is the Nightshade edition?Toyota has introduced a night shadow edition with sleek black accents on a variety of vehicles, including the 4Runner, Avalon Hybrid, C-HR, Camry, Corolla, Sequoia, Tacoma and Tundra. New for 2022, the Camry Hybrid Nightshade features black mirrors, window finishes, door handles, 18-inch alloy wheels and emblems.
The Toyota Camry Hybrid is one of the few mid-size hybrid sedans on the market today. The current generation debuted for the 2018 model year and receives some upgrades for 2022. As expected, the 2022 Camry Hybrid has significant improvements in fuel economy over the standard Camry, although the traction front is still the only transmission configuration.
No one buys a Toyota Camry for stellar performance, and that’s true for the hybrid version, too. The sedan has a comfortable ride that protects occupants from bumps on the road, but the steering feels boring. Both the Honda Accord Hybrid and the Hyundai Sonata Hybrid are more attractive to drive.
Inside, the Camry Hybrid has a functional design. The touch screen is easy to use with simple menus and few buttons clutter the center stack. That said, rivals offer more impressive technology (the Sonata Hybrid offers a larger touchscreen and a 12.3-inch digital-width cluster).
Efficiency is the priority. The Camry Hybrid offers excellent fuel economy, especially in the base model which exceeds 50 mpg in both city and road driving. With strong fuel economy and faster acceleration than the standard gas-powered four-cylinder Camry, this could be the best Camry you can buy. However, we believe that many buyers will be happier with the Honda Accord Hybrid zipper or hyundai Sonata Hybrid loaded with technology.
Fuel efficiency and economy
A 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine, an electric motor and a lithium-ion battery work together to produce 208 hp in the Camry Hybrid. Power is routed via an automatic CVT to the front wheels. When we tested a Camry XSE Hybrid, it reached 60 mph in 7.4 seconds, making it considerably slower than the Honda Accord Hybrid Touring, which completed the race in 6.7 seconds.
The Toyota Camry Hybrid 2022 has a strong fuel economy. The LE exceeds the city / highway models by 51/53 mpg, while the SE, XLE and XSE models have a rating of 44/47 mpg.
Qualifications and security features
The Toyota Camry Hybrid 2022 earns an overall five-star safety rating from the NHTSA. This score includes five stars in all individual crash categories: frontal, side, and rollover tests. The Camry Hybrid 2021 was named Top Safety Pick +2021, the highest award in the IIHS.

2020 Ford Lariat Price, Review and Specs
New Post has been published on http://usaford-cars.com/2020-ford-lariat-price-review-and-specs/
2020 Ford Lariat Price, Review and Specs
2020 Ford Lariat Price, Review and Specs – Don’t ignore the former times when a design was envisioned to have pickup truck models for practically a decade? Correctly, that is old background. With truck income carrying on with to exceed person cars-Ford acquired more than 820,000 F-series trucks by 2016, more than 2x the revenue of Toyota Camry, the biggest-supporting traveler car company has a fascination to maintain the car new. That implies a faster daily living period with plenty of revisions between.
2020 Ford Lariat Price
Ford is not going to get threats with lightweight aluminum cow finances. Just a few fast an extended period immediately after the new Ford F-150 debuted at the Detroit 2014 auto show; the automaker has presented its styling as before long as and up to date powertrains, this sort of as releasing diesel to the food selection for the 1st time. Ford reaffirmed its promise of a robust hybrid pickup vehicle with the latest state of the Ford F-150 Hybrid, which ought to attain the market by 2020. Specs are however scarce. We have no idea correctly which powertrain blend to utilize the F-150 Hybrid. Ford described that the F-150 electro-mechanical airplane would be created at their Dearborn Van Plant, it can provide “strong yanking and weight capacity,” and will also be able to run as a relocating electrical generator. Ford approaches to enhance the F-150 Hybrid in North America and the Heart Eastern.
2020 Ford Lariat Review
Exterior and Interior
Together with the 2020 Ford Lariat Concept, Ford also strategies to give a Mustang hybrid, two new hybrid law enforcement officials cars, hybrid connect-in transit vans, hybrid autonomous cars, and six but unrevealed electric vehicles. By 2020, the company objectives 40% of its fleet to become jog. To achieve this, the company expended an entire of 4.5 billion dollars in electronic vehicle technology. Quite a few necessary exterior style adjustments operate by way of the total collection, from the XL base to the leading-cut Limited. The new grille and front lights advanced to appear to be a husband and wife of behavior nearer to the dual-club motifs of the Super Duty siblings. The twin grille cafes on the F-150 Lariats equipped with the Sports package acquire body-pigmentation treatment methods. Driving the new taillamps, a bracket is a sculpted pickup truck with the F-150 emblem onto it. The King Ranch, Platinum, and Limited get a new horizontal appliqué in the tailgate for a contract of exclusivity. Interior revisions consist of a set of new cut colorations for the seating. The F-150 Platinum presents a choice of Dim Marsala shades, and Large-lessen trim dog recognizes the coming of the Navy Pier pigmentation topic. Sports Sport and Lariat Sports investors can stipulate false-carbon-fiber content software, and King Ranch will receive a particular seat recognized as Kingsville, whoever sound complements the king.
2020 Ford Lariat Interior
The option of technological innovation and infotainment choices fender joins the history of F-150 alternatives that are previously sufficient. The adaptive luxury cruise manages already upgraded and might now deliver the van to a complete halt in weighty visitors; a new accident discovery approaches these types of as walking recognition, the readily available Wi-fi 4G LTE hotspot permits customers to connect around ten wi-fi models. And Bang &amp Olufsen mp3 strategy deals with discretion requirements. Sightless levels are checking, series-keeping, 360-diploma surveillance cameras, and Apple inc CarPlay and Android Auto all continue to the alternatives history. But while the outer adopts the Super Duty looks and provides a fantastic dosage of realignment, the cabin does not push into the attract of also getting rough or awkward. In reality, whirling running the wheel of Ford F150 Concept 2020 Limited-its the way I put in most of my working day time screening-furthers the idea that some Us citizen pickup trucks can stand up toe-to-toe with standard music. Luxurious sedan and crossover.
2020 Ford Lariat Engine
Tracking at the popular the moment-a-year miles of 12,000 MLS, the EcoBoost 3.5L V6 uses around 522 gallons although the 5.0L V8 creates use of 571 gallons (49-gallon positive change). With gasoline fees hovering near to $ 2.35 for each gallon nationally as outlined by the official website, we could uncover customers will preserve $ 115.19 a year to press EcoBoost. This means that the consumer’s breakeven levels are about 9.5 a few years. The prevalent pickup possession is a lot less than that, and nonetheless, EcoBoost is the perfect endorsing devices for the F-150. I suggest on this site being a customer is not evident in the extended work, they see the benefits of quick-term fuel economy. The significant factor continues to be dedicated to the F-150 powertrain products collection. A freshly injected 3.3-liter V-6 engine promptly replaces the previous 3.5-liter V-6 and is believed to create the very same 282 hp strength and 253 lb-feet of torque as the previous engine but uses significantly less gas. EcoBoost 2.7-liter V-6 gets some also appreciate the unit is at the moment modified with a new up coming-time model with instantaneous injection slot design (2.7 earlier only fast injection). The 3.5-liter EcoBoost V-6 carries on for 2018, and the modified 5.-liter V-8, with believed horsepower and torque advancements. Ford, nonetheless, has not yet unveiled a distinct productivity sum for this products. The company said that every the EcoBoost V-6s and V-8 will be combined with 10-pace digital transmission, and auto cease/ commencing is typical in the lineup.
2020 Ford Lariat Concept Specs
2020 Ford F150 Lariat joined up with all kinds of other agencies to induce the electrification of trucks. The concept of 50 %-van Nikola One particular and Chevy Colorado ZH2 concept intention gas mobile phone technology for the solely electric powered-driven push. The W-15 idea of this problematic member of staff concentrates on a pickup vehicle electrical driven connect-in, with a gasoline engine that provides power potential for extended distance. All of these suggestions also source qualities of cellular electronic powered turbines. Think about turning on your house or job, your home, or your campsite generating use of your pickup. Tesla is allegedly accomplishing work on an all-electronic operated pickup vehicle.
2020 Ford Lariat Review
Ford failed to point out that the 2020 F-150 are going to be a plug-in Hybrid. This almost definitely shows that the F-150 will use a combustion engine and an electronically operated motor to force the vehicle. In other phrases, the van will never be willing to family vacation extensive ranges featuring its electricity or take/bring the maximum load solely on electrically powered run electricity. On the other hand, GM, Ford and Ram source (or technique on providing) a selection of turbo-diesel engines with their fifty percent-ton or intermediate pickup trucks. Ram has purchased 3.0L V6 EcoDiesel for many a few years. GM produces 2.8L I4 turbo-diesel in Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon.

My brother’s response to my mom’s email about the recent shooting. I want to share, particularly because of the way he explains things. As a veteran and a gun owner, he knows much more about guns than I do. Hopefully his arguments and information can help any of my friends trying to sway people on gun control laws.
“Completely agree with the sentiment here, Mom. However, in order to make educated arguments for gun control, it’s important to actually know what you’re proposing and use the right language. Otherwise, you’ll just get completely shut down as “not knowing anything about guns” to people you’re trying to convince. And if you don’t know anything about guns, you can’t really advocate for responsible gun policy.
AR15s are not the problem alone. Yes, it’s the most popular military-style rifle, and it is designed to kill people effectively. But banning one model of weapon will just make people switch to other, equally effective killing machines. If you banned the Toyota Camry, would people stop buying midsize sedans? No, you’d just end up with more Honda Accords on the road. If you want to fix the problem, you have to ban all semi-automatic rifles. Semi-automatic means the weapon is loaded with a magazine (or belt in some cases) with multiple rounds; and for every trigger squeeze, one bullet is discharged. There is no real need for these weapons in civilian use. They aren’t necessary for hunting, where the point is to kill the animal with one shot. It is only useful for killing a lot of things in a short amount of time or having fun at a gun range. I think our children’s lives are more important than a fraction of the population’s fun shooting a bunch of rounds quickly at a range. They’ll cope.
Handguns are far more responsible for gun deaths in America than semi-auto rifles. You mentioned the kid who brought a gun to school as only having a “handgun, not a semi-automatic.” Well, almost all handguns are semi-automatic. They have magazines and one bullet per trigger squeeze. Though most handgun rounds aren’t as deadly as rifle rounds, it’s inconsequential at short range. And handguns are far easier to conceal than a rifle. With the exception of maybe revolvers (which have 5-6 rounds max before reloading), I believe handguns should be outlawed. The Virginia Tech massacre, the most deadly school shooting in American history, was accomplished with handguns only. Don’t underestimate their lethality. I think military-style rifles only account for about 2% of gun deaths each year. If you want to solve the problem, semi-auto handguns have to go, as well.
If we really want to make a difference in gun deaths, we have to do WAY more than universal background checks and better mental health screening. Banning all semi-automatic weapons would make that difference. Keeping shotguns, revolvers, and bolt-action rifles legal accomplish all the typical, common uses of guns. (Bolt-action rifles are typical hunting rifles that you have to reload between shots.) With these types of firearms legal, you can still hunt, defend your home, and compete in sport shooting.
Combine the following with the semi-auto ban.
1.       Government buy back program of all semi-automatic weapons. Once a grace period for turn-ins ends, possession will be a felony without a special (and rare) license for Federally approved dealers and collectors.
2.       Gun licenses for all who want to continue to own approved firearms. Licenses will be granted by completing a comprehensive background check, psych evaluation, safety training, marksmanship training, and meeting strict storage requirements.
3.       Storage requirements would include safes, weapons unloaded, with ammo stored separately. Licenses expire after a certain number of years and all the requirements must be completed again for license renewal.
4.       Registration of all firearms.
5.       Insurance for all firearms. If your gun is used in a crime or if there’s a accident with your gun, your insurance company is liable for damages. Let the insurance market set rates based on their analysis of risk. Then, people can decide if it’s financially worth it to own a gun.
Finally, here’s your counterarguments for the most common pro-gun arguments:
A.      Pro-gun argument – assault weapons aren’t an actual thing. Banning them won’t make a difference. Counterargument – none. This is true. Classifying a gun as an “assault weapon” is something people who know nothing about guns do. Having a bayonet stud (a place to mount a bayonet) used to be one way to classify a gun as an assault weapon. Last I checked, we don’t have a bayonet problem in this country. Talk about banning semi-auto guns instead of made up things like “assault weapons.”
B.      Pro-gun argument – 2nd Amendment guarantees my right to bear arms! Counterargument – sure, it does, but there can be limitations. And in case anyone needs a history lesson, the individual right to bear arms has only existed since 2008. From the adoption of the Constitution until the DC v. Heller decision in 2008, the 2nd Amendment had never been interpreted to mean private citizens have a right to own guns. (Thanks, Scalia.) But that decision is now the law of the land and precedent for future court decisions. Nevertheless, even in Scalia’s majority opinion, he asserts that there are limits to the 2nd Amendment. Weapons allowed should be those in common use at the time. And limitations should be made on “dangerous and unusual” weapons, per previous precedent in United States v. Miller. I argue that semi-auto firearms should now be considered “dangerous and unusual,” given their lethality.
C.      Pro-gun argument – if law-abiding citizens get rid of their guns, criminals won’t follow the law, and we’ll be in more danger. Counterargument – this is an argument against having laws. Since criminals don’t follow the law, there should be no limits on anything. Also, when we do outlaw things, it can work. Purchases of large quantities of ammonium nitrate fertilizer was restricted after the Oklahoma City bombing, and there hasn’t been a similar bombing since. We outlawed fully automatic weapons, grenades, rocket launchers, etc. in the 20th century, and what has happened? We don’t see violence with those types of weapons. Most weapons used to commit crimes are purchased lawfully. If we change the laws, it will work to reduce gun deaths.
D.      Pro-gun argument – if we ban guns, people will just use knives or baseball bats Counterargument – there are plenty of incidents around the world of mass stabbings or clubbings, etc. Show me one that is as lethal as a mass shooting.
E.       Pro-gun argument – we need armed security guards in every school Counterargument – do you trust the security guard won’t become a mass shooter? The Texas church shooter was an Air Force veteran. The Pulse nightclub shooter was a security guard. Further, it’s relatively easy to get the drop on a security guard. Shoot him first when he’s not expecting, then keep going. That’s what the Pulse nightclub shooter did. It’s not difficult if you draw first. Columbine had armed security, too. Adding more guns to schools adds more risk, it doesn’t reduce it.
F.       Pro-gun argument – it’s a mental health issue, not a gun issue *or* guns don’t kill people, people kill people Counterargument – The United States has the same rates of mental illness as other developed Western countries, but we’re the only ones with this type of violence. The mentally ill are actually less likely to commit crime than those who aren’t mentally ill, which many find surprising. Also, those who are mentally ill are more likely to become the victim of a crime than those who don’t have mental illness. It’s a common refrain to hear “anyone who would do that must be crazy.” That’s not true. Being a murderer doesn’t actually mean you are mentally ill, which is why you hardly ever see successful insanity defenses in trials. And if “people kill people,” then we really should stop giving all these people guns, right? We don’t allow private F-22s or nuclear weapons, do we? Why? Because people would use them to kill other people. People use people-killing machines to kill people. Go figure.
G.      Pro-gun argument – We, as a society, have turned our backs on God. This is why crime is getting worse. We need God/Jesus to heal people’s hearts, not get rid of law-abiding citizens’ guns. Counterargument – Crime has actually decreased overall in recent decades. Things are getting better, not worse. Murder rates and violent crime overall have trended down as we’ve advanced as a society. Mass shootings have remained steady, though, because angry people have easy access to guns.
H.      Pro-gun argument – we need guns to fight against the government in case it becomes tyrannical. Counterargument – I doubt semi-automatic weapons will defeat a tyrannical government with fighter jets, bombers, tanks, artillery, drones, advanced cyber capabilities, and nuclear weapons.
I.         Pro-gun argument – gun registrations will make it easier for the government to disarm us Counterargument – The registration is necessary to keep track of deadly weapons in case they are used in a crime, or in case a law-abiding citizen commits a crime that revokes their right to guns. There’s over 300 million privately owned guns in America. If the government wanted to take everyone’s guns, they’d do it the same way they would if there wasn’t a registry: by going door to door and searching everyone.
I truly believe we need to do far more than anything advocated by most mainstream gun control organizations like Everytown and Moms Demand Action. We need to follow the lead of countries like the UK, Australia, and Canada. They’ve figured it out. Why can’t we?
