I found plenty of Ford EcoBoost Hybrid articles from the Ford media center. I didn’t waste too much time on a simple search but the 1st ten I looked at were from Ford Germany. There is some mention of an EcoBoost Hybrid on the Fox 1.0 engine but this would NOT be a hybrid by North American...

Ignition “on” and both ICE and hybrid modes it shows 14.3v Not driving it much and often sits for several weeks when I travel. I really needed just the 12v but it was cheap and fits in the wall of the cubby.

Someone was thinking over at Ford. An EB that kicks a**, a Hybrid that performs in other aspects. Two polarized choices in one outstanding little package. I want one of each!😁

I never really liked the Santa Cruz. I won’t miss it. Does anyone dare challenge the mighty Mav?😉

Oops… we drifted again! Take advantage of the inexpensive items you can add. You have power available in assorted places. MY24 XLT only had one bed cubby so I added another and installed a voltmeter/12v outlet/USB port panel inside a cubby. LED strips under the bed ridge, safe beneath rear seat...

Enough said with this comment. You probably have more attention to detail than some other folks. I was in high tech. One tool costs $400million bucks (ASML).. yet the customer may say “lets skip the PM… we need throughput!!”

Says the Wyoming man.😉 Your opposing opinions cancel each other out. Wait, that can’t be right. This could be an interesting survey. Aggressive oil changes VS follow the manual. Ford really likes the service revenue after sales so they may disagree with corporate and the millions wasted on...

One of these days the camera will become a factory feature, right??? 2028 Lux package?🤞🏻

Shared showroom? My daughter works at place that has 12 brands, and 12 showrooms. Also it’s own street that gates close overnight. When I was working in upstate NY I used to watch annoying TV commercials for a dealer. Then I’d go visit my mom in FL and watch the same exact commercials for...

My daughter bought her new (1st year) Kia Forte at a Hyundai Dealership in Stroudsburg PA. They were in the process of opening new sales/service locations and the the former location was being torn down. Until Kia had a building, her service was at Hyundai. This car replaced the Spectra and had...

Depending on where you may chose to retire or live, some apps and websites are not licensed to operate in every location. Ford app, CVS app, XM app and web, even my EZ-Pass access is denied on my little island. I’m in the states every 2 months so I can access everything when I’m there… except...

The FordPass app does not work worldwide. It is primarily designed for use in specific regions, particularly in North America and select markets. Users can check the app's coverage in their area before purchasing a vehicle. While it offers various features like remote access and vehicle...

I didn’t watch a halftime show. I assumed it would be filled with lots of “eye candy” which I guess it was not. So my apologies. I would, however, have stuck around if they were going to show Puppy Bowl highlights.

I remember the days when manly men watched the Super Bowl Halftime show for the T&A and pretended it was for the singing. What language did Little Furry sing the last time he was in the Halftime show? I don’t care! Who performed the 2018 show? Again don’t remember or care. Maybe we will be...

The new Hunter EV appears to be selling well where I am. A mid-sized EV pickup would be something new. But it’s not a good pickup so a big NO from me. I’ve seen complaints about our underbody shielding and around the wheel wells. How about “no” underbody consideration. Shoppers don't see it, so...

Mistsubishi L200 or “Triton”. An older model. Don’t expect to put your legs on the floor in the back. Anyone in the States remember the Mitsu Mighty Max? The newer model is also called the Ram 50.

The Dakota (Hunter) south of the states sits along side Tacomas, D-Max, and Ranger. The one that comes closer in size is the Rampage (2024- version). I looked at all my choices and shipped a Mav on a boat because there was nothing like the Maverick. It’s very possible that Stellantis will invest...

The trucks in Taiwan are also smaller 🚛🛻🚚😉

The Smart has been around a long time. I remember them in the early 2000s in Taiwan, but not a lot of them. Mercedes pricing vs a Seat, Polo, or Focus for much less. I saw one hit a small truck and it kinda bounced off like a toy 🚗.
