You do, if you want the onboard TPMS display to accurately reflect the position of the tire that is low (or high), so you can correct it easily. And I, for one, would consider a "low pressure" indication, plus a "pressure dropping" warning on a front tire to be a "pull over IMMEDIATELY"...

It is very rare for me to have rear seat passengers, as well. But I did put the liners in the rear, because we sometimes purchase plants that fit nicely behind the seats, and somehow they ALWAYS leak some muddy water during transport... Murphy's Law in action, I suppose. The SmartLiner rears...

Well, I spent a 3-4 hours researching GPSman's statements about there being no laws pertaining to operating over maximum rated gross vehicle weight ratings for non-commercial operations. I have to admit that I was surprised that I could find NOTHING in Texas law to refute that position. The...

I would take it to your dealer and have them look at it. Excessive engine movement and/or shaking/shuddering during startup and/or shutdown could well be symptoms of motor mounts were improperly installed or defective, and you would definitely want to get that fixed. Other potential causes of...

Wow! Better jump on that one quickly. A 2.5L FWD (so it must be a Hybrid), but it comes with 4K towing! Lotta guys have been saying they were waiting for a AWD Hybrid with 4K towing - and here it is! (Yeah, right...) You gotta wonder what it actually is, but at that price, not sure I really...

But if you "weight" it, won't it weigh more? I'm just kidding you - gotta love these automated spell checkers that "fix" things for you... Maybe AI will eventually help resolve this, but in the meantime, it's a source of endless amusement for us as we wait for our Macs. And wait... (Or is it...

Actually, $5K ADM on a Hybrid is pretty unusual. Around here, they are asking (and getting) $10K ADM for pretty much every trim-level Hybrid...

THAT is a true "unicorn" right there: A stock-order Hybrid! Guess Ford forgot all about those thousands of customers with Hybrid orders still unfulfilled... :rolleyes:

I guess this is the MTC version of "Me, too"... :rolleyes:

Out of curiosity, were they able to change from FWD to AWD so that you could get the 4K Tow Package you were asking about? I was under the impression that no changes to the chassis type were allowed...

Roundabout way of saying he ordered the Trailer Hitch Receiver w/ 4-Pin Connector option... There is no "tow package" available for FWD models (W8E), whether Hybrid or Ecoboost... The 4K Tow Package is only available with the AWD chassis (W8F) and Ecoboost drivetrain. When people refer to a...

Yeah, we had a Toyota Tercel 4WD wagon in the early 80s, that my wife drove for years. I can't remember whether it was Car & Driver or Road & Track, but one of them showed it as THE slowest car in both 0-60 and 1/4 mile times they had EVER tested. I think the 0-60 was around 16-17 seconds, and...

This makes the fourth place in the MTC forums you've asked this question. The reason people aren't answering is that you got the correct answer the first place you posted it... (TLDR - you can use any "point" on the frame that you'd like to use, as long as it's not painted - or you scrape the...

Another '22 Lariat here, with pockets on both seatbacks.

And even if you could do all that, the door sticker (legal DOT ratings) would not be changed. Definitely not worth doing - sell the current truck and get the 4K truck you need.

Heck, I used to live on a street named "Private Road 5509" and no one EVER got it right the first time... "It's two words and a number: Private - p r i v a t e - Road - r o a d - 5509 5-5-0-9." "OK to that's 'Private Rhodes' street or lane? And is 5509 your house number?" "No - my...

I believe your strut is installed upside down... I initially had mine that way as well, until someone here on MTC pointed out that It is recommended to have the rod "down" and the cylinder at the top. That way the lubricants in the barrel are in contact with the seal, keeping the seal...

Of course it is perfectly OK for each person to pick the seating position they most prefer! That's self-evident. But just as some never realized that mirror could be adjusted up/down on those ball joints, others never realized that the seats do NOT actually raise and lower, but instead...

I've noticed the same on slower speed roads, but going up long hills at highway speeds is what I was referring to... I'm thinking specifically of that long, steep uphill going through the Tehachapi pass between Bakersfield and Mohave in California. I'm sure there are longer inclines, and...

Why not? Only the back portion of the seat lowers when you lower the seat, so your distance from knee to the pedals remains the same. It just puts you in slightly more of a "recumbent" position, which is actually pretty ergonomic. You may need to lean the seat back just a bit, and move the...
