Ford to stop selling all cars except Mustang and Focus Active

[Bouncer]

Why because an extra 150lbs is sooooooo dramatic in mpg? Oy ok bro...do you even own a vehicle these days?

You think 150 difference in a person is going to throw the mpg off ha :wack:

Hold on. You believe the weight different between a small car and a truck/suv is only 150lbs? Wtf?

If you can't understand what I said in my post about a 300lb person vs a 150lb person then I don't know what to tell you. Jesus. I was clear as day and you still completely misunderstood.

Lmao. Holy fuck. Bro.

A truck weighs twice the amount of a car. For that reason they are not very fuel efficient in comparison.

Now take a healthy 300lb guy and a healthy 150lb guy. Which guy do you think is going to gas quicker running up stairs?

See what I'm saying now? Nothing to do with the weight of a person lowering the vehicles mpg. The heavier something is the quicker it will gas.

I like small cars myself. The two topics hit on are two of the biggest reasons. Cost and fuel economy. That and I just do not feel comfortable driving big vehicles or being high off the ground. Last year when we purchased a car we looked at new Ford Focus's and Fusions. Going into 30k for a car is not an option for me so with Ford out my choices are more limited. Fine whatever, I just don't want to see other manufacturers follow suit and leave me having to buy big, used, shit.

Chevy will follow suit. Your options will be Honda, Toyota, Kia etc.. American car companies are done with the car market. We got a 2017 Honda Accord Sport. Great car believe it or not. Not what people usually think about when they think about Honda. Car has better interior tech then my Audi did.

i'd have a 4x4 truck if i lived in the woods or up in the mountains etc..

but if you live in a suburb/city environment and don't need to haul around a bunch of stuff all the time what's the point? your just costing yourself a ton of money in gas/diesel.

How so:whistle

You DO realize many diesel trucks and even reg gas ones, pretty much do as good as a sedan?

It is not that detrimental in mpg

I actually thought of getting one before this lease I got.

I love driving a truck, I personally can’t see myself driving a car everyday. I get about 17-18 mpg in my truck.

You can get 25-30 mpg in a diesel with the right programmer.

I just bought the new Ford 150. I'm getting about 15 mpg. I could get more if I use the eco boost and leave the automatic shut off on. But that shutting off every time I stop at a red light is kinda annoying. I'm gonna leave it on and only drive in eco mode and see how much it makes a difference.

see that's my point. i got nothing against trucks. hell i'd love to have a raptor. but real world gas mileage just is not very good. you guys average 15-17mpg.

we average 29-30mpg in real world conditions in our car. if i really tried i could average probably 32-33mpg by coasting and not accelerating quickly etc..

so pretty much double the gas mileage. thats a pretty damn big difference.

it's an esspecially big difference when you consider that gas in california is almost a dollar more per gallon then the rest of the nation. right now regular is $3.60 a gallon and that's cheap compared to past years.
