  1. Radio auto turn off

    OK I misunderstood as well. Mine always shut off as soon as the door opened. That's weird!
  2. Radio auto turn off

    Every car I've owned since 1997, mostly all Ford products have done this. My 2011 Ranger with keyed ignition did shut off when the key was turned to the off position. Stopped as soon as the door release handle was pulled. Sorry if that is annoying, but wow that's not a really bad thing to deal...
  3. 🥊 Rampage vs. Maverick -- expected price, size dimensions, powertrain, features comparison

    Santa Cruz no longer exists, unless you buy a used one.
  4. Any spray for easier removal of dead bugs for long road trip?

    Like I said earlier, wet the car, wet a Bounce cloth, wipe away the bugs, and hose off. No scrubbing. Easy Peasy.
  5. Any spray for easier removal of dead bugs for long road trip?

  7. AC always come on at startup?

    Mine is a 24, but it's a Lariat. Wonder if that makes a difference?
  8. AC always come on at startup?

    I think it depends on the temperature in your cabin. If it's higher than what you have it set for, it will automatically come on to get the cabin to that temperature, which is what I would want it to do.
  9. Most of the time my hybrid works great, but….26.8 mpg is not good

    My 24 hybrid basically runs on gas at about 70 mph. Pretty much the same mpg as the E.B. at a constant speed on cruise control. If I drive the same distance, but on a two lane highway slowing down through occasional small villages or towns, I'm now at just over 45 mpg. I've done this trip a...
  10. The "Mass" Problem of EVs

    That won't buff out!
  11. Oil type question!

    Ah man--I should have been more specific. I guess either or--salt can be added to taste. Domestic premium for sure. All those on the list and an Amish option should suffice!
