You'll toss that lane keeping crap the first time you go to avoid a "gator" or other trash in the middle of your lane and find how hard it fights you! I don't mind the "Stick Shaker" one bit if I happen to get a little close to either line but I think I'll make the directional decisions, thank...
Pulled this load annually with 3 different trucks. A 2001 Dodge 1500/360, a 2013 F150/3.5 Ecoboost and most recently, Bret the Maverick, 2024 Ecoboost. Actually, Bret does the best job overall. Doesn't handle any worse than the two bigger trucks, probably because of the lower center of...
That actually uses more gas than coasting in drive. Above certain speed, somewhere around 30 mph, the fuel injectors are actually shut off while coasting in drive so you're using 0 fuel. I've actually seen my temperature gauge move toward cold when coasting down the mountain roads on the WV...
Got mine in there but w/o the 42" deck for a cruise night last year. Hauled it fine but when I really need to keep it in tact, I have a 16' trailer that gets the job more than done.
I don't even think about hauling the snow blower unit but my F150 required hooking up to the trailer as well.
I've written articles on ethanol as a racing fuel, first published in 2005. Did a LOT of research in the process with lots of ongoing testing in both carbureted and electronic fuel injected vehicles.
Ethanol only leaves deposits if it evaporates. It is my carb cleaner (E85) of choice as it...
On a similar note, I'm thinking of mounting a set of Bullit wheels on mine and know I'll need the correct sensors. Wondering if the new sensors would be automatically recognized or have to be programmed.
Also, has anyone tried fitting the late model Mustang wheels to our trucks? Have also...
I have theirs on mine plus my wife's Nautilus. Excellent product. I don't trust the cheap China add on stuff with automotive electronics. Plus, in my 24 Ecoboost, the installation was killer easy connecting in series with the diagnostic connector. No trim parts were threatened in the process!
The letter was waiting for me when I got home from picking up my trailer Wednesday! The left Stop/Turn signal light on the trailer was inop so that was my first thought. of course! But, alas, it was just a burned out bulb. All worked as it should over the weekend as I moved the seasonal...
The one I put in mine connected between the diagnostic connector and the original connector harness connector. Took 5 minutes to install with no trim removal necissary.
Probably works well in a Hybrid. They're made for higher city fuel economy so it makes sense the slower speed would generate 20% I've traveled on US 30 in Iowa several times where there is both 2 and 4 lane sections and found at best I'll get 1 mpg better in the 55 zone (driving 60) than I do...
Mine is approaching 17,000 now and I've performed all the oil changes since the first at 1500 Miles. I use Valvoline Advanced Protection as it does conform to the Ford Specs and either Motorcraft or Wix filter. I have several Motorcraft in stock as I used my remaining points to source them...
I purchased and installed Auto Stop Start Eliminators for and in both of our cars. Both are Ford Ecoboost engines and when the engine was stopped after an extended 75 mph run, I got very concerned about oil sitting on those hot turbo bearings. I shut it off immediately and once back home got...
We've had dash cams in our cars for going on 10 years now. Have had several from Whisler to a WalMart cheapie we had to pick up when one failed on a trip to Idaho to the high mid priced Cobras we now have with both front and rear views. In one situation even a front only cam saved us a bunch...
