It was a good first episode, but this comes off as incredibly presumptuous.
I don't even know what it means. If people don't like the show they probably just won't watch it. I'm not sure where envy would come into it.

Nope, he can stay gone. And I like him less after seeing him attempt to be funny on Brit panel shows.

I thought the whole angle of planes being made unsafe because it wasn’t done with union labor was a bit over dramatic. They definitely hit their talking points.
Netflix gonna Netflix. Unions don't exist to make safe planes, they exist to extract as much money as possible from whatever host they're sucking on.

I think his writing got better as the book series grew, which shouldn't be a surprise. I just wish he'd stop with the NASCAR-style ad campaigns and I'm glad they don't show up in the TV series.

Not sure how that is tying into Terminal List
Dark Wolf is a spinoff and there aren't any novels it's based on. Taylor Kitsch was so good in that role and they saw a chance to make another series and it had to be a prequel for obvious reasons. Other than the character its irrelevant to the Terminal List series.

I’ve read that the new ‘29 will change to being based on the Passport rather than the Pilot
The Passport and the Pilot are the same vehicle, they just got rid of the back row in the Passport. The Ridgeline has always been based on that basic architecture but it has a longer wheelbase than both.

They should just keep what they have and add lockers. Their AWD is really good unless you're rock crawling.

One of my quibbles with Lee Childs is that he's a Brit and he's never bothered to learn about the US military. He gets a lot of basic stuff wrong.

Not a spinoff. It was the prequel to the terminal list
It's both.

Transmission worries me.
If you got a 2025 you should be good. I think they got that shifting seal fixed in the F-150 10R80 transmission in 22 or 23, and the fixes (if needed) were applied to the 10R60 or had been already.
But I get the reliability concerns, especially if you look online where they get magnified. I have them as well but mine's only 6 months old, so I'll just have to wait & see.
I like it, but I don't remember Reacher's autistic mannerisms in the previous seasons and he definitely doesn't have them in the book. And it comes & goes in this one so far.

The bed in the truck is more than a gimmick. it hold a lot of stuff.
I almost got a tool box for the Ranger to hold all the crap I used to carry in the Ridgeline's trunk, but I didn't want to eat into a 5' bed. The overall physical packaging is second to none.
I've seen rumors that the next Ridgeline will be some sort of hybrid, which would be unfortunate. If they nail the redesign I'll probably sell the Ford and get another Ridgeline, but I'm not interested in a hybrid.

Action version of Adam Sandler, laughing all the way to the bank. I usually just want to be entertained for a couple of hours and Statham usually does that.

What an odd response.
There are several people here who can't handle someone criticizing something they like, and the telltale is that they immediately shift to talking about the person who made the criticism instead of the movie.
Maybe a Movie/TV Board where nobody criticizes anything ever is needed.

but what's "midsize" anymore, midsize = 1/2 ton vs 3/4 = full size?
Pretty much, I think all modern midsize trucks are 1/2 tons based on how the term has been used. And for most of the world our midsize are their full size trucks as their roads can't handle our full size, which is why (one of the reasons anyway) you saw Nissan drop the Titan. This is pretty much the only market for them but they can sell the Frontier everywhere.

It's inevitable. The only question is how far/how much political momentum it has. Given what we're seeing out of the DSA I think it could get pretty damned bad.

well the options are that or just not make a movie.
