It is a sad commentary but so very true.

Take my money, I would buy one.
When I build my garage I want to incorporate this into it.

If I were here, you would know it !
If some people see this, they would say that it is needed because the word "FORD" stands for:

Fix
Or
Repair
Daily

If I had a garage that my Expy would fit inside of, I would certainly consider building a similar docking station for sure :D

It is a sad situation for me as I’ve bought 15 Ford vehicles over the last 35 years and have been generally very happy with them.

I have had fords for the last 40 years and very few have had issues, but as the newer models get more complicated (particularly the electronics) I have real doubts about buying another ford.

Or any new car for that matter. Way too much computer crap to go wrong. Plus, when you open the hood on any new car, I challenge you to find the dipstick!

You might be able to use that challenge to win a bet with the owner of a new Ram with the Hurricane engine. It has no dipstick. It has an oil level sensor that you read through software.

Another simple, unbreakable mechanical device replaced with a sensor, wires, relay and computer code all of which can cause it to no longer function.
