Trim that insert on the rears and zap it with CA and should be good........not something to ruin the kit. -
Good to see you pop in! I have a good number of your kits and will say they are one of the few with Modelhaus level.

My Ford dealer has to fight for these 'real trucks' from Ford. They get all they can find but yes, the ratio of work trucks to luxo trucks is high. -

THAT Ranger was body on frame rear drive at least. The Maverick will be FWD uni-body......a Focus with a truck like body. Nothing wrong.....they will sell a bunch to folks who think they want a F-150 but after they drive a real truck......buy the Maverick....a nice ladies 'truck'. My F-150 rubber floors, manual locks and windows 4 x 4 will outlast me. -
Apples VS Oranges........... Comparing a electric 5 door SUV to a small 2 door sports car is a STUPID article. I bet ever other SUV in Ford's line up beat Mustang. (real Mustang coupe) in sales. REAL Mustang is like the Vette @ GM. A flagship car that makes a few pennies but brings folks in. We own a Roush 2016 supercharged Mustang that we have upgraded with a number of Ford parts. Compared to our 66 Mustang it is on a different planet. I'll take our coupe over a MACH E everyday.

Based on Focus platform per the Ford e-mail I got. FWD with optional 4WD. The other name they considered was Ranchero.......I like that better. -
I bought 10 cans at $1.57 without and intervention....no one even blinked. Maybe a area that has issues and or laws about spray cans and 'tagging' is different.

LEGAL CYA.....anyone says anything HL comes back 'We had a sign'. Masks are done in WV.....for a few weeks now. Was at a huge car show in KY....none there either.

Don't laugh - looking for input on those mini-cube "a/c" units
Dave Van replied to Monty's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
My house does not have any A/C. We had 3 days above 90 last year so don't feel the need. But I saw a video on these small units and thought for $100 worth it for the few hot nights we have. What I saw is they are small 'swamp coolers' which really only perform in areas that are bone dry......AZ and the like. In high humidity areas they can make you feel hotter......start with that. -
Like the old days when Monogram would make a slot version and curbside kit version of a car sharing body tooling. While I have a really nice Modelhaus Cheetah kit I'll buy ever curbside 1/24 kit they could do!!!
