Give it a rest, Man! Packages are not all inclusive And Any of the oils discussed here are ok for your truck. Edit: what's really funny is Google AI says the M2C962 was designed for ECOBOOST engines, specifically to address LSPI Low Speed Pre-Ignition, a common issue in turbocharged...

It's still going to be fine. Some people on these message boards are using 5w-30 intentionally in warm climates.

Simpler than once a year? No thanks.

Heat almost always helps any method. Also taking it off as soon as possible (like day 1) is easier than day 300. Something you probably have on hand, gasoline, and I mean a tiny amount used in a WELL VENTILATED (outdoor) area can work wonders. Gas can hurt your paint after prolonged...

Ya. But it will be fine. Change it out when you hit -20° temperature. What? You never do? Then you're fine. The second number is the most important one. 0w-20 and 5w-20 are going to behave the same in above frigid temperatures. And before someone tries to "correct" me (you know who you...

People 'like' shift shock. There's even a button to turn it on in the hybrid Maverick. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Nice pictures. Thanks

MY 2022 XLT hybrid cost significantly LESS than a 2005 hybrid Escape. At least $5k less. That's #1 reason I got it. Dirt cheap at $27,xxx I forget sticker before tax.

Even then I thought only "Entertainment System" updates were possible. No drive-ability software could be done over the air. And you don't want that anyway. Think of the liability if something went wrong / if it missed a bit or byte over the air. It might "brick" in your driveway or worse...

When towing for a coast to coast vacation, my OLM told me to change oil at 6,000 miles and only 3 months of time. Currently I have 12,600 miles on this oil and OLM is at 10% 9 months in. ( some towing but probably less than 500 miles total )

I pulled my #11 fuse a long time ago. No 12v battery issues in 3 years. Could be coincidence.

I see generator change direction all the time. But always at moderate speeds and moderate loads. Below is a highly smoothed graph. Pedal to the floor 10 MPH to 70 MPH. Wide open throttle. The generator goes to red line right away and holds at red line (12,750 - 12,850 and I never saw 13k this...

And you are pretending (or assuming) I said something I didn't. Please stop. Read twice. Or three times. You are mis-reading or being intentionally argumentative. Then post if you feel compelled. I don't think I have stated anything inaccurate here.

*75% more wear protection Than what? No oil at all? Gotta love all the statements that carry no legal meaning.

Well now, that depends on where you live (drive) now doesn't it... I'm perplexed why you keep pissing on this fire hydrant though.

I'm not splitting hairs. I've had a scanner on my dash since 2005 Hybrid Escape. All the Weber Auto tear-downs show all generations of eCVT are remarkably similar. Only mild motor changes and a few tooth changes here and there. Generator zero at 5600 ICE I've never seen. However; I have a...

Electrics (even partial electrics) have more Zoom-Zoom.

I love pushing it as long as lab tests support. For hybrids, that's usually more than 15,000 mile intervals. And I'm not really sold on the one year thing being a thing in mild climates. 😎

You said: "Generator speed is often around zero in normal driving..." I say it is rarely zero. How do we resolve this?
