The ford had just left the shop
Needed 10 miles for it to break down for the tow truck to be worth calling

Lmao on the ford it’s gonna happen to due to corrosion
Only real reason for the aluminum is weight savings
The down falls are
Still corroded to nothing
Special repair and replacement for the panels
Come on engineer think about it
They don’t want anything to last long after being paid for
The Grumman LLV mail vans have all aluminum bodies and they are still on the road. The last one of those was built in 1994. When aluminum oxidizes, the oxide layer protects the underlying metal, unlike steel, which continues to react until it has completely oxidized. Vehicle manufacturers don't need corrosion for planned obsolescence anymore. They have software for that now.
Guess who Ford purchased the no manifold technology from?
It's actually pretty cool. Makes the exhaust simpler, that's for sure.
Definitely a cool design. No worrying about warped leaking manifolds, blown manifold gaskets or broken manifold bolts/studs. Turbos bolt directly to the head and they are easy to remove and install in the truck.
What size engine?
Ford's designation, not mine. From now on, it'll be 164 cubic freedom units.

UPS trucks are aluminum too. Probably FedEx as well.
