Traditional Culture Encyclopedia - Photography major - After 80s, my uncle changed Ford Sharp Four-wheel Drive and shared his experience in choosing and picking up cars.

After 80s, my uncle changed Ford Sharp Four-wheel Drive and shared his experience in choosing and picking up cars.

I am born in 1980s, and the father of two children, whose coordinates are Shenzhen, works in Nanshan and lives in Songgang, Baoan (the children can't move easily after school, and finally they go to public schools, and all they say is tears). Car owners mainly commute and travel on holidays. It's about 32 kilometers to work.

The first car was a China H320 hatchback. This car was bought in June 20 13. It traveled more than120,000 kilometers before being replaced by 4S last month. I am satisfied with my first car. The main advantages are that there is nothing wrong with the hatchback, the hatchback is flexible and easy to open and stop, the maintenance cost is extremely low (all-inclusive and small maintenance of 300 yuan), the insurance is cheap (only 65,438+0,900 including compulsory insurance and travel tax, and 400 cash coupons are returned this year), the fuel consumption is also good, and the cost of comprehensive vehicles is very low. Although it has been almost 8 years, the appearance and interior are relatively new, and many people think it is a 4-5 year old car. I mainly drive to and from work, but actually I can drive for a few more years.

A 7-year+1.2000 km car is still very new.

After the first insurance, Mott has fully integrated and maintained 65,438+00,000 kilometers, with no problem. It is said that China has many minor faults. Maybe I am lucky.

At the end of 20 19, I had the idea of changing cars, but it was not strong. First, the eldest daughter, 12 years old, grows fast and is taller than her mother. Occasionally, when a family of four goes out to play on weekends, I feel that there is no place to put her long legs. When I go back to my hometown at the end of the year, there won't be much in the trunk. Second, the year before last, I fell in love with wild fishing. Where there is no wild fishing in Shenzhen, you must go to the surrounding Dongguan and Huizhou. Some wild fishing grounds are unpaved, the roads are muddy, cars are expensive to walk, and some areas can't go. So the idea of changing cars came into being.

After wanting to change cars, I began to look for a new car. ? First of all, I've been driving for several years and want to change my taste. Considering the space requirement, it is best to lock the four-wheel drive SUV and have the ability to walk on unpaved roads. ? Second, the motivation is better. Personally, power and control are integrated. Without motivation, what about control? So basically 2.0L displacement, 180 horsepower and 300 Nm torque are the targets. ? Thirdly, China has given me a good experience before, so I don't exclude domestic cars, but since it is necessary to change, the grade must be improved by two grades. Otherwise, the current car can be opened again and there is no need to change, so the budget is set at around 200,000, and the landing price does not exceed 250,000. ? Fourth, the safety is high, and individuals completely reject Japanese cars (personal preference, no spraying). Whether it is the feelings of home and country or the product itself (with the love of domestic consumers, bold name reduction, high price; When problems such as airbag/brake/oil emulsification occurred in previous years, China consumers were discriminated against; Most models have poor safety performance, and they are critical of energy-absorbing design, big Kouga/big TV/ferocious front face and some strange design languages. I have never liked Japanese cars. Many people will say that Japanese fuel economy, first of all, compared with safety, the fuel consumption is 1-2, which is completely acceptable. Secondly, do the Japanese really save fuel? When did I buy the Chinese H320? At that time, many people said why not buy Fit? Fit 1 ton is lost, and my Chinese H320 1.27 ton is equivalent to my full load at any time. Can I not save fuel? And I'm still 4AT, but I ran more than 600 kilometers of urban commuting road with a tank of oil, which is equivalent to more than 4 cents per kilometer; Running at high speed can reach 900km. So Japanese fuel economy, hehe. ? Maybe many people want it. Aren't they all made in China now? Boycott of Japanese goods didn't cost us a lot of jobs and taxes. My feeling is that although it is a joint venture, the profits are still in the hands of these foreign businessmen. Secondly, domestic employers have very limited right to speak about products and cannot change the essence of products. Since it costs money, why not buy one that makes you comfortable? Some people also want to drive with a bar car, not hit it. Nowadays, traffic participants are so complicated that if you don't hit others, others won't hit you. Can you control this probability? If there is an accident, I believe it is not a difficult multiple choice whether to lose your life or save your life. ! This article directly excludes CRV, RAV4, Hao Ying, Qi Jun and other two models with one production. ? Fifth, never have a three-cylinder machine. No matter how some stakeholders advocate and optimize, the problem of intrauterine jitter cannot be cured, and the most important thing is the degree and time of jitter. There are four cylinders to buy, there is no need to choose three cylinders. ? Sixth, never double clutch. Volkswagen's dry dual clutch in the past few years is simply a nightmare version. The public can't do it well. The double clutch of other cars at the same price is also terrible. Of course, dual clutch also has its advantages: high transmission efficiency, relatively more fuel-saving, and fast gear shifting. However, for me, a shift speed that is a few tenths of a second faster has no practical significance. It's not like I get off the track every day and save a few tenths of a liter of oil. It seems to be painless. But the disadvantages of dual clutch, such as stability and expensive maintenance costs, I may be more concerned about this personally. After all, what I need is a worry-free means of transportation, rather than learning automobile principles and mechanical maintenance skills. Personally, I only like AT gearbox cars. ? Seventh, like your looks. This is actually the most difficult to measure, and everyone's aesthetic is very different. Like CS75, which is on fire now? Plus, I really can't appreciate it, and there are cars like Lexus, which I can't accept at all. My favorite Mazda is from Japan, so it's hard to do! ? During the online forum, I also learned something about others, such as the public. Mazda's Tuyo/Tuong? CX-4/CX-5, Wei Pai? VV6/VV7, BYD? Song? Pro, roewe RX5? Max, Chevrolet? Border explorer, Peugeot? 4008 these cars, but basically one or more of them passed. ? Based on the above personal standards, there are the following four cars that finally fall into sight:

A/? Hongqi HS5

B/? Li Ji xing yue

C/? Buick Angkewei

D/? Ford Sharp (Welcome to the first appearance of the protagonist in this post)

With a goal, there will be trade-offs and compromises. After all, no one is perfect, let alone a car. What I want is the car that suits my situation best, not the car that everyone thinks is good. ? First of all, talk about Geely Xingyue. Geely's market performance and product strength in recent years are obvious to all. I went to see Xingyue as soon as it was listed (there is a 4S shop 2 kilometers from my home). First of all, the appearance is very atmospheric, and I fell in love with the slip-back shape at a glance, and the interior texture is also very beautiful. However, Kong Zhong's special-shaped plaque design really makes me love obsessive-compulsive disorder; Secondly, the salesman is very good, like to buy or not, there is no discount at all; Finally, there was no test drive in the store, so I had to go to another 4S test drive in Luohu. In addition, I saw on the forum that the fuel consumption feedback from the owner was about12l; During the car selection, the news that the new car spontaneously ignited broke out. Let go after comprehensive consideration. ? Let's talk about Angkewei again. It has been on the market for some time, and all aspects are relatively balanced. Relatively speaking, the appearance of the interior is relatively stable (moderate), and it feels inconsistent with my age. This one is almost out of touch with it. Then my cousin bought a LaCrosse top match a few years ago, and the fuel consumption is very high, almost one yuan 1km; After driving several times, the overall impression is that the brakes are weak in the first half. After comprehensive consideration, I gave up. ? Then talk about the red flag HS5. Emotionally, I like this car best. There is nothing wrong with the three pieces, the appearance is atmospheric, the configuration is super high, the interior is luxurious, the space is huge, and the gas field is the same as that of the Q5 with four laps. The reasons why I didn't buy it in the end are as follows: First, there is a 4S shop in Shenzhen, which is worried about bullying and after-sales service (at present, it seems that the same Lihua Group has also opened one); Secondly, in the long test in car home, some editors mentioned that the chassis compactness of their work car had changed obviously after one year, which was very, very mind; Third, many car owners in car home Forum mentioned that the central control panel had a black screen and the A-pillar screamed abnormally at high speed, which seemed to be a common problem of the whole system. Fourth, considering the rapid decline of domestic high-end brand preservation rate. I gave up after all. This is the most tangled decision. At that time, I posted in the forum for the guidance of the old driver.

At that time, some forum users may still have an impression of the pictures posted.

Finally, talk about Sharp. First of all, the power is strong, the acceleration has a sense of pushing back, and the control is good. The three parts have no common problems. There is also a four-wheel drive blessing, and occasionally going fishing on dirt roads in the country can also cope. Secondly, appearance is my dish. Some people may think that the front face is not atmospheric enough, but I personally prefer exquisite design. Under the concept of still water drops, the rounded and concise body lines really conform to my consistent aesthetics. Third, the cost performance is high. As a joint venture model, 248 horsepower, 394 Nm, 8AT, four-wheel drive, various active and passive safety configurations ... 200,000, I am afraid there is no second one. 1.5T also bought more than 200,000 in two fields. The fourth is flexible space. Note that I said flexible space, not big space. The second row can move back and forth at most about 15 cm, and the back angle of the rear seat can also be adjusted. My height is 173, and there is room for two more fists. Coupled with the large skylight, the rear space feels very spacious (this is in stark contrast to the CX-5, which also focuses on sports). This configuration is really flexible. After all, there is no chance that the trunk will be full for a year. When choosing a car, it happened that there was a joint venture of 200,000 SUV models between cars, and I was deeply impressed by the overall strength of Sharp. At this point, I basically decided to buy a car. ? Then go to the 4S shop to see the real car and test drive. About 8 kilometers away from my home, there is a Ford 4S- Shenzhen Bite Group store (it is rumored that several Ford 4S in Shenzhen are owned by the same boss). During the test drive, the sense of control conquered me during a 90-degree turn. When you step on the accelerator in a straight line, you will immediately feel a push. The salesman also ostentatiously tried the emergency automatic brake, and I was worried about hitting the car in front. ? After a round of test drive, I basically don't buy it. For those who shout that the sharp taste is not fragrant or are still hesitating, I suggest to test drive a few times more, and basically they can't stop.

After the test drive, the sharpness was basically identified. I don't like the front face of the ST-Line version, and I think Jiaxiang's configuration is enough, so I decided to enjoy the four-wheel drive version. Tell me something else so that we can compare the prices. ? First, I want to replace my China, and the normal second-hand market price is around 1.5- 1.7w (I asked my friends in the automobile industry and others gave me 1.5 million, as long as I sold it). Considering that the replacement price for 4S is definitely lower, but because there is a replacement subsidy of 5000 yuan (given by the manufacturer) +3000 yuan (given by the Baoan District Government), it is acceptable to be lower, and the psychological price is about 1.2- 1.4W? Secondly, I want to mortgage150,000 48 installments. Many people say that the total price is only over 200,000, and the loan is 1.5 million. What kind of car do you want? Is your face swollen and fat? ! In fact, the real reason is that I have other reliable investment channels, ranging from 6.5438+0.2 million to 6.5438+0.5 million a year. So I can get an investment income of about 72,000 in the period of150,000. If I give the full amount to 4S and subtract about 25 thousand from the total cost of mortgage (handling fee+interest), I actually lose more than 40 thousand yuan. Therefore, the following prices are based on the 48th mortgage of 15000. ? At the beginning of June, I started to talk about the price with 4 S. The new standard 4S next to the home is not allowed to sell for a penny, and the landing price is more than 230,000. The used car only gave me 9000 yuan. Then the feeling of selling it to me was full of routines, so I went to the Ford 4S in Xixiang. After many twists and turns, the final price is as follows: naked car price: 204,800? Purchase tax: 18 123? Insurance: 6500? Card: 500? Replacement subsidy: 5000? Postage allowance: 6000? Gift: 3M film/car paint crystal plating/disinfection and deodorization/pillow mat/free basic maintenance for life (twice a year)? Final landing price: 22.45W? Loan: 1.5 million /48 installments. The monthly payment is 359 1 yuan, and the handling fee plus down payment interest is 3655 yuan. ? Compared with buying a car in full, the additional total loan cost is 2.6w? Second-hand car discount: 654.38+0.2 million? I also added a condition that the car must be manufactured in June. ? We take a car purchase invoice as authentication:

Compared with many cars before, I was satisfied with the full payment at 23: 00. ? In the process of bargaining, it is also full of routines. First of all, the mortgage is quoted at the price of two-wheel drive. When I saw that the price was much lower than the first model, I thought it was cheap at first. Later, I checked Changan Finance and found that something was wrong. I called the salesperson and said I made a mistake. I plugged it in! ! ? Then at first he said to give me 3000 postage subsidies and 3000 insurance subsidies. Shit, isn't this the manufacturer's 6000 fuel subsidy? ? Finally, in the process of paying the money, the starting price was more than 1.9 million, but when we talked, we clearly confirmed that the invoice was 20.48w W W. At that time, we were deadlocked for a few days, which was actually a bit passive because I paid the deposit of 1w first. Finally, I went directly to their sales manager and pulled out the WeChat record. Finally agreed to press 20.48, and I paid the rest. ? Some friends may ask why they insist on the fare of 20.48. Don't you drive less and pay less taxes? First of all, we are talking about the final landing price. In 4S, paying less taxes is actually making more money, which has nothing to do with us. Secondly, if the car has just been picked up from 4S and driven out, I just assume that it was scrapped after an accident, then the insurance will only compensate you according to the invoiced car price. Although this probability is extremely small, it is also a risk. Our goal is to nip any risk in the bud.

On June 20, I paid the deposit and waited for the car to come. The salesman said it would be delivered in about two weeks, and then the car arrived on July 9. After going to the parking lot to check the car, I went back to the store to go through the formalities, mainly because I had to pay insurance, and then there were a lot of second-hand car replacement agreements and mortgage procedures. Pay the balance after completion. Then it is agreed to hand in the old car and the new car on July 25. ? On the morning of July 25th, when I arrive at the store, I can see my great white in the delivery area, waiting for me to marry it. Look at the photos taken at that time (mobile phone photos, everyone can look at them, and high-definition big pictures can see pictures at home):

Next is the delivery ceremony. Personally, I don't think there is anything new. It's just a formality and taking a photo. It's boring. The salesman forgot to give me an original picture.

Then there is the notice before handing in the car, taking the key and the car manual. There is an episode here. Someone sold me a manual of Sharp, but I didn't open it. I found it when I got home, as shown below. )

Go home and open the instructions, looking stupid. Is all this wrong? I was so angry that I drove 30KM to the store to get Sharp back manually, which was a waste of time and money, and greatly weakened the professional image of 4 S. I asked the careless delivery girl to apologize to me, and the matter went away. Ford manufacturers should rectify and rectify, and their reputation has not been very good in recent years. Don't let these unprofessional sales ruin some good impressions left by consumers.

Compared with my old car, the new car has a lot more functions, so I read the user manual first and got familiar with the functions. I also posted various posts on the forum, and I also thank the netizens who replied to me. ? Then I look forward to driving to work every day, and when I step on the gas pedal, I feel like pushing my back. This feeling is very high. ? Some small photos of daily life:

The perfect line of the side waist

First open a big white to catch fish.

Photos can't show all your beauty.

My favorite starry front face looks more luxurious than ST-Line. Headlights are also very nice and feel very strong. The whole car LED is more cool.

At first, I thought it was a little ugly to stick out my ass too much. I am used to it now. It's okay.

Sports steel cannon has both vision and wood. !

Steady big ass.

The fuel consumption of the second tank of oil is small. Now drive 1500+km, with an average speed of 32. The comprehensive fuel consumption is stable at 9.0L, and the measured fuel consumption is almost 9.5? About.

Show your face!

1, about fuel consumption? Three refueling records:? First refueling? 2020-07-25? 55. 19L? 3 14.58 yuan? Second refueling? 2020-08-03? 50.57L? 288.25 yuan? Third refueling? 2020-08- 14? 53.93L? 307.40 yuan? At present, the third tank of oil has not been used up, and the cumulative 1500KM, the meter shows that there is still 129KM battery life. What is the fuel consumption? You can do the math. ? Personally, I am satisfied with the fuel consumption. I mainly drive to and from work, and the traffic in Shenzhen is also blocked. This horsepower, this curb weight, and this fuel consumption are completely normal. If the speed can be increased, the fuel consumption can be reduced. ? 2. About power and control and chassis? No matter from the data or actual driving, Sharp's 2.0T engine is very powerful, which makes me confident when overtaking/merging/cornering. In the standard mode, as long as you are willing to give oil, the acceleration is very light and fast. The steering wheel has good directivity, not too many neutral positions and strong righting. ? When the venue is cornering at high speed, it can feel a good sense of compactness and body rigidity. I tried 120KM/h long bend close to 90 degrees. Body tracking is good, posture is controllable, and there is not a lot of Japanese feeling of serious roll. Of course, its suspension is relatively uncomfortable and a little hard. In addition, in sports mode, the motivation is even a little violent. ? In the standard mode, when the gearbox decelerates to about 30KM/h, there is obvious frustration. Switching to sports mode is not obvious. This must be spit out. I didn't feel this way when I was in China H320, a modernist Walter 4AT. I hope OTA upgrade can be improved in the future. At other times, this gearbox is quite competent, and the upshift is more active. When the speed is 120KM, the engine only has1800rpm, so 8AT is indispensable! ? 3. Convenient configuration and safe configuration? Let's talk about convenient configuration first. ? Automatic headlights and automatic far and near light switching are very easy to use, almost no need to worry about it, just leave it to the system. ? Rain-sensing automatic wipers are a little neurotic, so it's not as good as manual control. ? The voice control system frees hands and is very convenient after adaptation. But sometimes I feel a little nervous, such as suddenly switching to day and night mode when navigating, automatically switching to head-up mode and so on. In addition, there is a gap between Baidu navigation and Gaode, and I don't like it very much. ? The USB interface at the rearview mirror in the car is well set, which saves the trouble of installing the wiring of the driving recorder. This is commendable. ? The automatic folding rearview mirror and automatic anti-glare rearview mirror in the car are also very cool to use. ? The automatic parking function liberates the right foot, and you can't go back after using it. ? Let's talk about security configuration first. ? Blind zone detection, lane keeping early warning system and collision early warning system are all very good, which should be of great help to novice drivers, at least for old drivers like me, it improves convenience and safety.

Having said some of the above advantages, I also said some things that I am not satisfied with: 1. Personally, I prefer the black interior, and I don't need to turn over the hair. As long as it is all-black interior, I have a choice when I add money. But Ford didn't even give the opportunity to choose clothes directly, which was a bit uncomfortable. ? 2. The seat electric adjustment is only equipped with the main driver's seat, and the co-pilot manually adjusts it. As a car with more than 200,000 yuan, I personally feel that it should not, and the cost is very low, but it will affect the consumer experience. ? 3. There is no prompt for the running status of the four-wheel drive system, but it is low. This logic is not clear. Although it is a timely electric four-wheel drive, I don't expect manual control, but at least let me know that the four-wheel drive is running under the above conditions. I hope to add screen display options in the next upgrade. ? 4, there is no automatic lock, can't automatically shut down the engine to start and stop. These two functions have to press the relevant button before each ignition, which is a bit unaccustomed. Although I know that the automatic locking is designed to meet the requirements of some national laws and regulations, my China cars used to lock automatically when the speed was over 20KM/h, so I didn't get into this habit. As for the automatic start and stop, it feels like chicken ribs. ? 5. The hardware quality of large LCD screen is good, but the UI design is really unsatisfactory. The sense of technology and luxury are two kinds of feelings before and after ignition. Can't Changan Ford find a good UI or graphic designer? Such a good screen is blind. ? 6. The front seats are not wide enough, and there is a fist gap between the doors. If it is widened, I believe it will be more comfortable to sit. ? 7. A left rear fog lamp and a right rear backup lamp. Obsessive-compulsive disorder is unbearable. ? 8. The rear bumper extends out of the car body. Isn't the trunk fragrant with this length? ? 9. The central control is voice activated, and the physical pressing is reduced. Although it seems that the sense of technology is ok, there are no physical buttons. Some middle-aged consumers may? I'm used to it. I'm going crazy when I think of a car crash or something. After all, the stability of the Android system is there. Baidu's in-vehicle system seems to have many bugs at present, while the original European car still retains a large number of physical buttons on the basis of providing voice control. ? It seems that I have mentioned many shortcomings, but it is actually the deep responsibility of love. These are small details. I'm not a sunspot or an excuse. I'm just talking about my feelings in the car for reference. ? Generally speaking, you can get 90 points for this car.

Many netizens said, "You speak so well by Ricky, why do you sell so little?" ? Hit the face? ! ? Actually, I have a special post to express my views on this issue,/BBS/thread/2b5261d5308d7633/88764847-1.html? Those who are interested can go here to have a look. Say it again: At present, this Ford car seems destined to be a niche, not tens of thousands of models. The reason for my analysis is: 1, I love appearance, and I won't even look if I don't love it. Several of my friends said that this car looks like a high-end version of the Focus, and it doesn't look like an SUV. I feel that my front face is not atmospheric enough. Without a design accepted by the mainstream people, many ordinary customers or customers who follow the crowd will be lost. ? 2. Sports SUV originally belongs to the market segment, and its audience is not as wide as that of mass household models, such as CX-5 with low sales volume. This has shut out many Buddhist consumers who drive. On the other hand, Tian Liang and Volkswagen can buy CRV, RAV and Tan Yue from the age of 60 to 20. ? 3. Compared with Japanese, Sharp did not give customers the choice in configuration, and cut across the board, keeping some intended customers out. For example, I have seen several friends say that it is good to choose black as the interior decoration and black plastic skirt as the exterior decoration. ? 4. The central control is voice activated, and the physical pressing is reduced. Some middle-aged consumers may not be used to it. What if the car crashes or something goes wrong? It drives me crazy to think about it. After all, the stability of Android system is there. At present, Baidu's in-vehicle system seems to have many bugs, while the original cars in Europe still retain many physical buttons on the basis of providing voice control. ? 5. Space space. Although the second row is fine to sit on, the trunk is really small and the rear bumper is prominent, which is not an acceptable design for everyone (although it can effectively protect the body)! The back door is small and it is inconvenient to get into the car. Hit the back door twice during the test drive. ? 6. Changan Ford's poor quality control and assembly technology, as well as the stereotype that Ford's fuel consumption exceeds two areas. ? Most importantly, Ford's brand image has declined, and it is no longer the first echelon of joint venture in many people's minds. When we analyze many models, we always mention brand influence. Due to the influence of broken axle, smelly interior, three-cylinder strategy and after-sales, Ford's brand image in China automobile market declined seriously, which led to a serious decline in Ford's brand image and premium ability. In this case, in the price range of 200,000 yuan, compared with CR-V, RAV4, Tan Yue and other models, it is difficult for Ford Sharp to gain the trust of mass consumers. ? To sum up, it is difficult for this car to reach the level of Mavericks/Tuyue/Tiguan /CRV/RAV. It is destined to be a niche model. The monthly sales capacity reaches its peak at around 1 0,000, unless four cylinders 1.5T are introduced, which will be reduced to around 1 0,500. In this case, how should the calf be priced? !

At the age of 40, I chose such an SUV with a sports steel gun to find my passion and do it sharply. ? The rest of my life is long and sharp. Sharp lines are endless, and the blessings are long.
