Just finished a ~600 mile round trip to North Wilkesboro for the All Star Race, pulling our ~800lb camper with maybe another 200lb of gear. With the exception of the gravel path hills in the campground, it pulled it like it wasn’t there. Averaged just shy of 28mpg overall in Tow/Haul mode...

2023 XLT eco. Absolutely (for what I paid for it).

And the block’s not even the same going back to the Gen 1/2 Duratec hybrids. The 2.5 Atkinson has been through several revisions.

PCT must be something fairly new, I am not familiar with that abbreviation.

That’d be the FL500. FL400 shares the same thread as the outgoing FL910s.

All the spinning was done in the intersections lol the paths are way too rutted to be bombing down. Also, I absolutely wouldn’t be out in the field if this were a hybrid truck. There’s no way I’d risk banging the HVBM off the ground. That could get *spicy* and expensive in a way I’m not...

There’s always somewhere with more weather than us, our winters are usually pretty temperate so most folks aren’t used to snow here. What we do get is usually freezing rain (like most of this) so when it mixes with a little snow and turns to slush folks get tricked into thinking they can drive...

We’ve gotten our second decent snow/ice storm of the year in the #252. Schools are closed so my wife and I are home for the day, but a family member who had to work today needed a ride home, so we ventured out to pick him up. About a 35 mile round-trip. Out where he lives is some family farm...

My advice, simply, is do NOT build to a specific price point. my Maverick order was my first new vehicle purchase, and I wanted to make sure I didn’t let myself go crazy with the option boxes and price myself into something I couldnt really afford. I set my goals at $30k out the door, and...

If you have an Ecoboost you won’t experience this specific issue. Hybrid trucks have a pressurized tank, so the door has to seal the filler neck shut otherwise the EPA gets angry.

Good LORDT those flares and wheels looks nice. I’ve not been a fan of almost any of the wheels folks have been putting on these trucks with like 20-30 tiny spokes. These things give me hard 4th gen SLP SS wheel vibes and I’m *here for it*

definitely, just pop the edge with something hard and you can practically push the window out (I know because I almost did it by mistake right after it shattered)

I don’t do enough work to justify it but man, for a work truck that’s a great idea

definitely gonna ask if that’s an option. I don’t care much to mess with making the power slider work, but a manual? I could dig that.

how dare you 😂

I always hear people talk about getting the first scratch out of the way on a new truck, so it’s not such a worry when you scratch it again. Well I’ve scratched the bed up pretty good doing yard work, but today clearing limbs got the best of me… popped the edge of the back glass with a pretty...

Preface: I do not have an opinion on whether or not you should have removed it** The 50-state legal systems are advertised 50-state legal because they do include a catalyst. This doesn’t mean that some states, or the EPA, wouldn’t frown on an owner removing a properly functioning emissions...

I live out in more of a rural area, so my main concern is buying from stations that sell more gas and therefore keep fresher fuel in the tanks. Mostly Shell or Sheets, but I’m not picky. I’m much more concerned about the longevity of my head gasket or turbo line seals than I am valve deposits…

It’s a secondary cat. It isn’t monitored but it’s still very much an emissions device.

If it knocked that out of the cubby, ABSOLUTELY go get the underside looked at for Unibody damage
