A little to much probably won't hurt anything but a lot too much is just as bad as not having enough. If you hydrolock that engine you have problems. Too much oil in the crankcase can also cause the seals to start leaking.

I used to do all my oil changes when I was younger. I am 65 now and my back isn't what it used to be. I will just take it to the dealer and let them do it. It allows me to get out of the house and look around in the showroom. The only thing I will do anymore is change air filters and wiper blades.

I would think you could apply your Ford Pass points on an oil change and get some points for your oil change, but I am not sure every dealer participates in that program.

I bet it would provide more protection for your engine too

I would think they could put some kind of coating on those wires to make them less tasty to rodents. I have heard of rabbits chewing wires too.

I am sure it is based on TIME, MILES, and Engine revolutions. Whichever comes first. If you are sitting in traffic with the engine running, it will count that in too. You can probably drive just 1000 miles in a year and it will still alert you when you get into that 11th month to change the oil...

they can crawl under the door if it isn’t sealed enough. I was told if they can get their head through, they can squeeze their whole body through

I have never had that happen to me but I have seen the damage. There is probably something you can spray under the hood to discourage it. I keep my vehicles in a garage. Maybe you need a couple of cats

my 2018 Taurus seemed to pop up an alert just under a year time no matter what the miles were. It could be 3000 miles or 6000 miles. About 11 1/2 months and it was telling me to change the oil. The Maverick may be the same

PURDY. But I have to say that green is growing on me

You don't say?

That is nothing unusual. Dealers have been screwing people over on their trades for years. I don't blame you. There isn't $10k worth of difference between 2024 and 2025 assuming both are equipped the same. There are some upgrades on the 2025s that weren't available on the 2024 models, like...

I set the cruise at 5 MPG over the speed limit (70). It was from Gastonia NC to Spartanburg SC and back. I was showing 14 electric miles when I got back out of 74 miles. I didn't pay attention to the electric miles going. It probably was more downhill coming back

A battery reset by flashing the lights 5 times and hitting the brake 3 times if I am remembering correctly

Does that require any software mods to get the truck to property charge it?

I took my 24 Lariat with 1300 miles on it for a short road trip yesterday to see how it would do. It clocked 36 MPG one way and a little over 43 on the way back in 50 degree weather on a sunny day.

Maybe Carvnna is stocked up on them and they don't need them right now. All these new car lots are stuffed full of vehicles which effects your trade-in value

People just drive like idiots these days. They speed and cut traffic like crazy here

New vehicles are designed to fold up in a crash to protect the occupants. It is designed that way for safety. I would think any late-model vehicle is that way. It isn't a bug. It is a feature.

That's pretty Kewl
