  1. A rebadged Berlingo is now available from Toyota:
  2. Add this in your list, it also has cross-reference which other cars have this size for cross-shopping of wheels and possible tire sizes:
  3. Yeah, it's happened before: https://youtu.be/537FDgzGv2A
  4. I read in another article that Ford has done it before, bolted random Focus body panels on the actual body structure of the upcoming model. This here is much longer than a Focus and the front end is also high. It’s a proper test mule, not a ready made car with some confusing stickers.
  5. UPS is buying 10,000 of these cute electric delivery trucks
  6. https://www.carscoops.com/2020/02/looks-can-be-deceiving-as-this-ford-mule-is-likely-the-2022-transit-connect/
  7. Yeah, I had a loaner Custom once. It's a separate product line, about the same size as the smallest fullsize transit but probably a bit smaller. Takes some effort to climb in the cab.
  8. I doubt the Connect and Custom are identical.
  9. It is weird that the Gen2 is lost on wet grass while my Gen1 was a capable offroader.
  10. Everyone: https://fordtransitconnectforum.com/topic/5451-is-ac-tied-to-external-temp-reading/
  11. TMC service is free in Europe, it appears to be some subscription thing in NA. It works in parallel with anything you have playing and switches to audible announcement if TA is enabled in the head unit.
  12. Linear radio is pointless. Today you can stream music from the internet or just play MP3 from a USB-stick. Or listen to "radio" as podcasts on demand. Or audiobooks. There is no time in the world to consume everything interesting that's available in the internet for free.
  13. I consider myself a Trekkie but I’m not sure I would go that far

    Hello Guys

    We're not too knowledgeable on full size Transit matters tho.
  15. They’re better than stock halogens but require a bit of aiming. The H7 socket is not fixed by anything else than just the ring, clicked in place. Now the projectors are aimed too low in their normal position so I did some bending of metal to aim them right. First I just turned the aiming screw to level them right but the high beam was too high then. So yeah, not really plug’n’play. I might probably go with big HID projectors that require cutting and automatic leveling mechanism for the rear axle + headlight washers. But thet will either happen when I find a cheap pair of extra headlights or when I don’t need a van for a while to take it off the road.
  16. Turn signal side repeaters are mandatory in Europe. They are mean to be seen at all angles from the side. That's why they bulge, not sit flush with the body.
  17. Chinese stuff: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000080624577.html
  18. Sick of driving in darkness, trying out high quality plug'n'play LED projectors:
  19. Obviously the respect part is a joke but I cannot recall when I last used the horn, maybe a year ago?
  20. Jesus, how often do you use the horn, especially for respect?
