That is an interesting document. They referenced the highway portion of the test was at 50mph and speed ranging between 0-60mph, but the average was 50mph. I think that is pretty close to what the EPA test cycle has for the average speed also.

Nothing like having to take a road trip after a vehicle has been in the shop and you don't know for sure if it was fixed! Me, and myself are fine on road trips, but I gets mouthy... So we have to feed him to keep him in line! LOL

AWD models were constrained. That is why they weren't filling those orders. The weekly scheduling update they talk about what Ford is saying they want to build, and what they can't build. It's nice having a heads up on what is going on. They just lifted the constraints this last update on...

You are on point, it is 0w-20 and it is on the fill cap as the factory fill recommendation for the hybrid. If people took some time to understand what the oil viscosity numbers mean and how SAE J300 defines it then people would be much less mystified or excited about all of this! ROFL

You would have been fine either way. Living in Texas you are far from getting "cold" by motor oil standards, but the Hybrid was spec'd for 0w-20 by Ford. 5w-30 won't hurt it, but it will be a modest hit to the fuel economy.

I am watching Tim from Long McArthur and he just clarified the situation with the 2025 Maverick 2.0 Ecoboost gas filter situation. He said it has been confirmed those 2.0 Ecoboost are 250hp. He said unless you order in a CARB state you will NOT get a gas filter. The gas filter is only being...

If you would like to know what the constraints are and what your chances are to get your truck scheduled.

Tim is back from vaca and giving us a Maverick Monday update. Looks like no news on when the fix will be out for the stop sale, hold, recall that is happening. They just know Q3 before the fix will be here. Sounds like they have discounted the 2024's yet again. And they are expecting...

I messaged one of our vendors asking about a phone mount and I was told there was one coming. So I would just keep your eyes open because there are products that will be addressing this.

Now you tell me... I am superglued to my coffee cup now... ROFL

LOL, let the dash rattling commence! You know after they pull that thing apart it is going to all sorts of fun! ROFL

In the Tesla everything is on the screen and at this point it is one of the best in the auto business. You don't have any controls external to the screen other than some things you can do with the tracker/scroll wheels on the steering wheel. Voice commands can be useful in a pinch. For...

Not a fan. Came here from a Tesla and I prefer quick access physical controls. Physical controls that I know where they are and what they do without much distraction are preferred. I almost bought a 24 because of this particular change I dislike it so much.

I know they had employee pricing on them, plus an extra 1000 off. If you are a first responder or if you are a member of Farm Bureau you can get another $500 off. Like others pointed out they can't sell the 2025's on the lot at the moment and it could be Q3 before those get released. They...

We are probably on the same train. I just now received the email from Ford that the truck was built and shipped. Already fired off the email to the dealer to let them know and to remind them of my request NOT to put their badging/dealership stuff on my truck. That really irritates me! LOL

I wrestled with the decision on the 2025 because of the change to the controls and putting more stuff on the screen. My Tesla insisted everything is on the screen and it is a distraction more times that I cared to interact with. Thankfully some of the voice commands were useful, but it...

As contradictory as this is going to sound. Sometimes purpose built tools are less distraction than messing around with trying to find what you need on a single device/vehicle screen. Specifically navigation. At at glace I can see exactly what I need to see with a dedicated device. The "main...

Well I will have to take back what I said about them holding things up. But I won't take back what I said about the flaky web site for tracking the orders. Looks like they updated my orders status on the web site today. Now looks like it shipped on 6/7 the same day as it was built...

To get a glimpse at some data for EV tires Tire Rack has been doing some video on them and comparing rolling resistance and performance of a wide cross section of tires. Here is the first installment of that comparison and they did a follow up with winter data too.

It has been confirmed.
