Anybody watching this? Tom Hardy, Pierce Brosnan, Helen Mirren, Paddy Considine.....A bit of a modern Peaky Blinders, meets The Sopranos, meets The Transporter. Who doesn't love murders & F-Bombs and nice cars?

I must say, the promo includes a great song.

I'm hooked on it, but subtitles are a must. Too many f-bombs to suit my tastes, but I'm an old fart. Dialogue is well written and acting performances are excellent.

Looks good. I have enjoyed all three so far. I like to watch to see what kind of vehicles on the roads. Mostly Range Rovers, BMW and Audi. However, I did see two Fords on the highway. I wonder how much Ford had to pay to get those vehicles into the show.

Haha. I do the same. My wife gets annoyed b/c I'll sometimes pause it to get a good look.

Speaking of Fords overseas, did you know there is a mid-size SUV they sell exclusively in the southern hemisphere and the ME?

The Ford Everest is a mid-size SUV built on the same platform as the Ford Ranger pickup truck. It's primarily sold in regions like Asia-Pacific, Australia, New Zealand, the Middle East, and is now expanding into markets like Argentina.

As someone in the market for a midsized SUV, why can't we have this instead of the store brand Range Rover (5th/6th gen. Explorer)?

I looked at Everest on line last week …I was thinking why Hyundai kills them ….well it’s several factors but for me design is a key. Ford is lagging there

Ford has had a run of major quality issues since they moved to Mexico. The eco boost issues and transmissions and suspension issues from about 2010-2021 have made Ford really fall down the list of automakers. I've got a Lincoln right now with a bad transmission- $9000 to replace. Should've been a recall it's so common but they'd lose money, so now we do. Last Ford related product I'll buy I think.

Probably after I've already bought something else...figures.

I'm really looking hard at Mazda CX-90 or a Honda Pilot - AWD. I've heard nothing but good things about the KIA Telluride, but I can't get over the exteriors and the nameplate.

Doesn't Ford already have the Escape, Explorer, and Expedition? Or are all of those not being made anymore? I am not in the market for one and haven't kept up with latest offerings...

Yes. They also have the Edge. Ford got out of the US car business 3 or 4 years and only offers the Mustang, SUVs, Trucks and fleet vans.
