Re: Be Grateful for DCX. At Least They Aren't FORD!
Bill,
The troll for got one thing, if Ford had purchased the Jeep company they all
would require the optional heated tail gate. The heated tail gate would be
required to keep your hands warm as you are pushing them off the road in the
winter.
The new Fords are not off road capable to the extent the Jeeps are hell none
of the SUVs are. Sure you can drive the so called off road SUVs through a
field or a dirt road but they can't take the heat so to speak.
We were out on the trails several weeks ago when an Explorer broke one of
its lower rear supports on the rear axle. If you look at not just Ford but
all the major SUVs which tout off road capability the rear and front ends
have much stuff hanging down below the axles which are just asking to be
broke. It is just fact, can't help if Jeep has their stuff together for
being at the top of the food chain for it's off road capability it always
has.

Point is...to judge an automaker based on what was developed 60+ years ago
is rather asinine. He was bitching about Henry Ford's Model T drivetrains,

Irrelevant, since most of the new Jeeps aren't off-road capable to the
extent the Wrangler or XJ is. At least Ford had the common sense to keep
solid front axles on its 3/4 and 1 ton trucks, unlike GM.
