Cash is king! Back in October 2024 I sold my 08 ranger for 10k cash, all $100 bills, to a old guy that looked like a farmer. He probably was. And he probably had his farm leased out to "licensed" marijuana growers here in southwest Oregon, home to more growers than any place on earth. 100 $100...

Farley did not say much about what "kind" of EV. I am betting it will be an Extended Range EV. Solves the #1 problem with plug ins, range anxiety. Solves the #2 problem, giant expensive batteries. Solves the #3 problem, giant heavy batteries. Solves the #4 problem, heavy tire wear because of...

Too soon for me to say 'best ever". I need 10 years of ownership. But after 7 months I am really happy with it. I have owned my propane burning Transit for 10.5 years and driven it 117,000 miles and it has been almost 100% trouble free. Replaced the tires, wiper blades, rear brakes, and had the...

Recalls? What recalls? Still waiting for my first one! 2024 Lariat purchased in December, truck was built in September. I keep checking NHTSA for a recall. None yet!✌

There is also a 2008 Ranger XLT listed, with a 2.3 I4 mated to a 5-speed M, with 16K miles, and no reserve, with AC and CC. In Texas. Much better deal in my mind. Current bid is $7500, ends in 2 days.

Well the ford website I was at, had a link for electric and hybrid vehicles, I clinked it and it shows the escape hybrid ST line elite starting at $36,305. Thats it. So thats false? Ford got it wrong then.

I am comparing price and price only. Your post seemed to be all about price. And whether or not it is worth it to spend more. Someone on a tight budget is going to start looking at the starting price for hybrid vs. PHEV. Good chance they are like me and have never needed and do not want AWD. In...

Fords website lists the starting price for the plug-in hybrid Escape $1100 more than the standard hybrid. Far cry from 6-7K. Every Chevy Volt owner seems to really like their PHEV. Gas in my area is 3.65. Has been above 4 many times. And thats at Costco, cheapest in town. And not everyone has a...

When they get old, just like us, the joints get achy. Stepping up is going to be more painful than just walking up a hill.

A ramp is better than steps. Amazon.com: Dog Ramp for Car, 71''x 17'' Pet Ramp for Large Dogs with Anti-Slip Surface, Extra Long Dog Ramps Up to 250LBS for Truck SUV Van Stairs, Folding Car Ramp for Dogs to Get on Bed Couch : Pet Supplies

Fords website shows the plug-in hybrid Escape is $1100 more than the standard hybrid. I would pay that for sure to get 37 miles of EV.

How many decades have we been hearing about super-duper solid state batteries are right around the corner? Alot of hype comes with 100% plug in EV's. And when you sell anything with misleading pitches your customers will soon realize they didn't get what they thought they were going to get. Then...

No one knows what the current admin. will do tomorrow. Forget about 2027. And definitely PHEV is the best bet, and almost guaranteed.

Actually, the EV incentives are still alive and well. The federal incentives (tax credits) are set to end on September 30. The Auto makers are screaming at you know who to keep them in place. Then there are state incentives. My neck of the woods, Oregon, has up to $7500 REBATES on new EV's and...

I already have a bed extension. It is called a trailer. ✌🤙🤘

I believe it has everything to do with the front axles limiting how much the wheels can turn without binding the axles. I noticed right away that my maverick did not seem to turn as tight as my 2015 full size Transit T150. I looked it up: Maverick turning diameter is 40 feet with a 121-inch...

I used dental tape floss to remove "Hybrid" from the left rear just a few months ago. Left it in the sun for a while on a hot day. The floss sliced right through it, easily! I was shocked how easy. The sticky backing that was still on I used the exact decal eraser previously posted and it took...

I pulled my fuse about 4 weeks ago and my dome lights have yet to NOT come on. Before my Mav couldn't sit 24 hours. No doubt the battery is just too small for the amount of drain that is on it when just sitting there for a few days. And of course when flooded lead acid batteries get drained low...

This is why the current dealership network is good for the customer. Brick and mortar location for sales and warranty work. Online banking mostly works, but online auto sales and service is a pipedream. Ask any Tesla owner about their warranty work experience.
