I'm only saying if you are sitting in your vehicle, you need to buckle up, in case someone runs into you! I'm sure it will matter if the vehicle is on, what safety systems will activate or not to protect you. But seatbelts always help!

It should be the first and last thing to take care up in any vehicle! How many times have people had " medical issues " and lost control of their vehicle in a parking lot while shopping! Running onto the sidewalk, sidewalk cafe tables, and into the store!

Wait for the seatbelt message then press okay, then..... select okay to return to Eco mode.

How about auto up and down on the front windows? Auto down only on the driver's side? Really?

Can you do a remote start with the climate temperature turned up high?

I use my Garmin on long trips or areas where I know cell connections are poor or intermittent!

Get the part number that's on backorder. Ask them if they've called other dealers for the part! Ask them to please run it on their locator! It usually happens that a nearby dealer has the part. It will cost them extra to buy it, but they should want their loner back!

The 1954 Red Truck Bakery's truck, that was recently at the America's 250th anniversary, in Washington DC's Ford display at Union Station. Although neither one is cleaned and polished, I still like them both very much! The Red Truck Bakery is a great place for coffee, tea, pastries, and those...

I don't know about Ford vehicles, but on some new Volvo and Kia models, they have foam inside the tires for noise suppression. So many vehicles came into the shop towed in, because they were driven either after they went flat or the foam separated from the tire casing from excess heat. Or bad...

And the price and location please.

When I used to donate blood, plasma, and platelets, they had a sign on the ceiling above the chair. It said blood is like a parachute, you don't need it until you need it! So very true! Same with a spare tire!

That is six years from the date on the DOT number. The last four digits, week and year of manufacture.

Back in the early 70's VW pop up campers had a BF Goodrich Space Saver tire and a compressor pump. I have always had a full size spare in my cars. Working recently at a Volvo/Kia dealership, some models had spares while most did not. On some Volvo models you could buy the parts to do a complete...

Yes, I have the same problem. Google Maps is the problem. Open Google Maps and check where it pin points your location. Ironically since the first day I brought the truck home, the street number is correct, but the street, town, and zip code are probably 15 miles away from me! Getting them to...
