Many moons ago I worked the drive at a Chevrolet dealership. When a warranty vehicle came in from another dealership, I would work on their vehicle AFTER all vehicles that were sold at my dealership were finished. We made a promise to our customers and we would keep it. They could bring it in an...

They used to make a Mustang II. A Ranger II would have designated the vehicle as a truck, not relating it to a cheap car.

My 2024 will be a year old Nov 30. It has 7100 miles with no issues, no complaints, several mods, and 3 oil changes (1000, 3200, 6800).

Whatever you use, test it on an area that doesn't show and check the results (bottom edge of rocker panel or wheel wells).

Are the spacers safe? The nut thread engagement should equal or exceed the bolt diameter - some don't. The bevel on the nut must match the bevel of the countersink in the spacer - some don't. Either of the conditions just mentioned can cause a wheel to come off even if the nuts are properly...

I apologize for the snarky thimble statement. Let me put it this way. The Ford TSB will probably cost them a million or two in revenue and tarnish their reputation, yet they put it out there. The gas issue should be taken seriously.

I don't smell gas at all, just oil. BTW if you think it's fine to smell gas in the oil, pour a thimble full in the crank case. After all, it's not a problem.

IMO, a Mav with a tonneau cover offers more utility than a car with a trunk. Buy what makes you happy. You don't have to justify it. I'm happy for you. Enjoy your vehicle, avoid remorse.

The issue is associated with the build date affecting several engines. Fuel pumps and software don't know or care what engine or vehicle they are hooked to, as if they had feelings....

My truck window sticker says 10/30/24, month, day, year. The door label says 11/24, month, year. The Ford web site says VIN Build Date: 11/07/2024, month, day, year. I believe the last is Ford's official record. I took delivery on the 30th of November, 2024. I asked for a shop towel and checked...

As of Saturday morning, 10/18/2025, The TSI isn't available at this time.

Oil change service is more involved than mileage. Pull the dipstick at least every 1000 miles. If you wonder if the oil level could be low or you can’t remember the last time you checked it, pull the dipstick. If you can't see the stick because the oil is too dark, change it. If it has metal...

Touch screens are a distraction and unsafe to use while driving, one reason I'm not interested in a 2025. A coworker was killed when he was hit head-on by a driver who was adjusting his radio. That's what the dummy told the police at the scene.

I scuffed a rear wheel and ordered a replacement, thus the real-world cost differential. It isn't a popular wheel. I am supposed thy ran out of stock and ordered more at the new price - fat chance. I'm pretty sure I am being gouged. I have the name of a repair shop and will have the slightly...

The consumer gets ripped off. Ford makes the Maverick in Mexico to keep the price down. If they make it here, the price will go up a bunch. Look at my wheel price increase. Every time Uncle Sam says he is going to help us, THIS is what happens.

If a thread makes you shake your head, or smile, or think, or inform, it is not useless.

When the valves are opened by the camshaft they protrude into the cylinder. THAT is when the cleaning by additives takes place - in the cylinder. (Yeah, I know. I said I wouldn't comment to this thread any more........)
