Similar to my signature line: "Everything is idiot proof until a better idiot comes along."

I have some Ethereum that I mined with my gaming PC during off hours for about a year that I've been sitting on letting it stake for the last year or so. Not much, but enough to pay for the computer itself and almost the next one to replace it. Fingers crossed for an eventual ETH rocket to the...

In that case, may I interest you in some of the finest Beanie Baby Snake Oil NFTs I have for sale? 🙃🤣

The Fed is still ran by the same people: "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss." That being said, there are financial lines of thought that, if you're interest rate is better than 5.5%, financing makes more sense than buying in cash or financing with a large down payment because of the...

I thought about putting an order in for the hybrid lottery as a "why the hell not" scenario, but I think I will be holding off until they either offer AWD and 4k towing on a hybrid platform or my unicorn PHEV Ranger comes along.

It will take 3rd party cards. They recommend their own cards for the extra profit and guaranteed compatibility. You need to make sure the card is a higher U3 spec; most people who screw up only check for the Class 3 (U3) rating on a card, but lower end Class 3/U3 cards have write speeds of...

This 4k Rove for $79 is a great option. I bump the settings down to 1440p instead of 4k so it can record at 60fps and the quality is good at the normal price point, and extremely good for the current sale price. Same price when I bought it on sale 2 months ago; so not an amazing Prime Day Deal...

Have not seen anyone mention this yet, and maybe it is because people are spending too much for one, but for me it is a 100% necessary item for any vehicle: A DASH CAM! This is the one I went with, I got it on sale in May for $89 and it always seems to ping-pong around on pricing from $99 to...

Don't threaten me with a good time! I'd take mine in "Cyber Electric Lime" or "Slimer Green Metallic" anytime! :ROFLMAO:

Could you imagine an Eruption Green AWD hybrid with 4k tow? I'd poop my Pampers!

Availability and 4k tow: wife wants a small camper in our near-ish future. Happy wife = happy life. That being said, I will probably submit an order for the 2024 hybrid lottery. I loved my 2013 C-Max Hybrid that had one of the first Ford eCVTs in it; it ran like a top with 0 issues for almost...

Sorry for your loss and glad to hear you didn't have any serious injuries. As someone who worked for Nevada Highway Patrol out of Las Vegas for 6 years, my personal advice to all members on here are to ALWAYS: 1. Install a dashcam in your vehicle. Even a cheap $50 one that records mediocre...

I suppose us Lariat Lux owners get to lift our nose in snootiness a bit since we have push-button start and the "upgraded" sound system (which also includes the upgraded infotainment system). I only have ~1,500 miles on my EB Lariat Lux, but a good chunk of that mileage was spent immediately...

Moved to Amherst from Fort Wayne, IN just over a year ago now; we were looking everywhere within a 30 minute commute of my work in Oberlin. Made offers on houses in Westlake, Avon, and Sheffield that all didn't go through before snagging ours in Amherst. Dealing with that area's traffic...

I just picked up my HPR Lariat EB just over a week ago from AutoNation Ford Amherst, which is kind of in-between the two somewhat. I was in contact with them from before the order bank opened up in September of 2022 and it seemed like I knew things from being on here before they did. Not a bad...

My HPR will be roaming Hocking Hills for a few days in mid-August!

UPDATE: turns out I was a liar. The ECO mode we are referencing is only a cruise control setting that adjusts acceleration to maximize efficiency. There is also an ev+ mode which is supposed to "learn" our common locations to determine when it can switch over to EV mode to maximize battery usage.

I'm currently driving my 2013 hybrid C-Max I ordered new and took delivery of in September of 2012 (almost 150k miles). You are correct, ECO mode on the C-Max was a set-and-forget option; if you selected it once then it permanently stayed on and would show "ECO" vertically on the left side of...

Looks fantastic! HPR and Carbonized Grey seem to look like the two best colors for black decals. I'll probably look into that lettering when I pick mine up in a month; really makes the back end pop. I have also seen a couple HPR Mavs on here with white decals/accents and I think white looks...

Ahh; saw your location as SE Michigan and thought the road trip might have been around Lake Erie and not Lake St Clair. I'm originally from the very SE corner of Michigan (La Salle) and I remember when the Cabela's in Dundee opened up almost 25 years ago; the one out here in Avon is about 1/2...
