Ford should be used to PR nightmares by now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHcdM7bBHCU That being said, what Ford is doing right now is insanely cool. Considering what they were selling in 2005, how cool is it that they have the GT, Raptor, 2 Halo versions of the Mustang, 2 Halo Focuses, and the Fiesta ST on or about right now.

Memento posted:You can answer your question with the following 100% true statement: I have a '17 Escape and switching to the Focus chasis was the right thing for Ford to do. First bit of true Calgary winter driving and it's everything I wanted in a Focus Wagon, plus you can accidentally put it into oversteer and casually power out of it as it moves the tourqe to the front wheels. Getting something other than all seasons for next winter though.

Bibendum posted:I really would like a Mazda5 for the family, it's moderate size and simplicity while still having a 3rd row makes it super tempting. But somehow they took a platform that has proven good in other cars and made it pretty marginal in crash safety. Also the (manual only) driver's seat doesn't go back far enough. It's fun when you can take a car off your shopping list In less than a minute.

Instead I took Engineering Tech and we had a CNC lathe, mill, router, robotic arm, plastic thermoforging machine/welder, and a rapid prototyper amongst other things. Dragged my son out to the garage this weekend to help me build a bed for him. Sore and tired at the end of the day is probably bad for an 8 year old, but he had fun. This is the reason why I did it.

spog posted:How do you pronounce 'JIS'? It's "jay-eye-ess" And one of the pieces of equipment I work on (Fuji DEVO) has T7 screws with reduced head depth. They strip so easily, the first instruction in the manual for removing the back cover is "order 20 new screws." InitialDave posted:Allen heads are the devil's work in anything needing more than minimal torque. Head depth matters alot too. Euro manufacturers love that poo poo though. The best is american companies who engineer all their machines to use SAE screws then use an OTS European or Japanese component that has Metric screws, and is secured by metric screws.

(But doesn't explain staring into the engine bay) Hood up is req'd by law in Alberta, at least it was when I got my learners a couple decades ago. And if the hood's up, it's a good place to call for help while avoiding everyone's evil looks as they pass you.

When I used to work at a distribution centre one of our forklift guys jumped out of his truck to toss some garbage,at the end of his shift. He forgot that he wasn't on a forklift any more so he left the truck in drive, expecting it to stay stopped.
