All this writing about A/C has me wondering if anyone has noticed that the hybrid A/C that runs off the electric pump takes a different type of cooling Freon? I was looking at a standard 134a hose and can refill and I happened to have the Oreily's site set for my Maverick and noticed that some...
I changed the filter and oil on my Hybrid at 1,000 miles. Why? I read too many posts on that dinky oil filter being put on by a gorilla at the factory and he forgot to lubricate it before he did it. I figured I would get it off before it got really hot from a long summer day drive and welded...
Having done plenty of bodywork in the past I would say that cleaning it up with a Dremel tool first, to get rid of the rough edges and then using some of the bodywork epoxies out there would be your best bet. Paint shops specializing in automotive paint have a huge selection of different...
Just another day in the neighborhood, nutso drivers on the phone with a friend or ordering a meal to go as they drive to pick it up. The phone has made driving a hazard, when it should be the other way around.
Exactly, In order for the consumer to fall in love with a small vehicle they have to build them. The beasts they call compacts would have been considered luxury cars 20 years ago.
So I wonder will Ford once again try and limit the production of Hybrid Mavericks to some crazy 35% of the total production for the year again?
Or will they finally learn that what the consumer wants is them to sell 80% of the Mavericks as Hybrids?
I had a friend of mine looking at my truck ask me where I got such a fancy cup holder. I have one of those HPR trim rings on the shifter. He did not know that was the way I have to change gears and thought the ring on the cup holder was kind of nice looking. I popped open the door and he...
I owned a 1996 Ranger but with it being 4WD it sat up quite a bit and I never thought of it as a mini truck. My dad had an early, maybe 1980 Datsun, and that was a tiny truck.
In my retirement I decided to go for a high mileage non gas truck from those early years and ended up with this 1981...
HPR. HPR…. HPR. Pay the extra and you will not look back.
i get tons of compliments on mine all the time…
I am so close to 70 that I can grab it with a short cane.
DO HPR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Being a non smoker I can’t even imagine if there is an ashtray in my truck. I thought all cig lighters got a remake into PowerPoint outlets.
Someone set me straight, I don’t care to get wet running out to the truck to look
This was worth my coming to the forum today. I have never heard this spoken but I sure can put it to words in the future. Thanks for your meaningful contribution to the humor side of this forum.
I have one and keep it stowed in the bed all the time. I built a deck using 12 foot GC and I maxed out the weight limit on it. I had it down on the low setting and bumped it on the speed bumps leaving the lot.
I had 21 pieces on for each of the three loads and threw on a couple 2 x 10 x 10s...
This is my take on tinting as well. I so like to be able r
to communicate with people driving nonverbally but I can’t do that if I can’t see them. I go to my cyclist mentality, seen and be seen.
we have so many stop signs in town it is nice to know those coming later than you are going to...
