I learned how to drive manual in a 70s Ford Courier my dad got for free. It was a rotted out piece of junk but it drove and I would basically take it joy riding in the countryside. Then I broke the transmission by trying to downshift into 2nd going 50mph or something. I think we sold it for...
I have Focus ST wheels on my lowered Maverick. It’s a great look (actually sitting slightly lower in the back than normal because I have the bed full of stuff here)
Fortunately looks like the window of vehicle build is quite small (between 10/05/2023 - 10/10/2023). My Maverick has those tires but was built in July 2023 so not within the window
I got my '23 Lariat in September and everything was fine for a while but lately the last month or two I've had a lot of issues recently with the infotainment system. A few times its just gone black (audio keeps playing) usually along with the buttons not working. a few times Carplay doesn't work...
Looks like some RAM trucks are vulnerable to certain kinds of relay/replay attacks, if the keys are within range (like less than 10 ft away). You can see in the video the thieves are at the front door and garage door trying to get the key to respond and capture.
Yet another reason to not buy...
This sort of stuff is incredibly sensationalist. If a car has a chip key, there is no way to steal the car without YOUR KEYS (or towing the whole vehicle). I’ve heard of people with newer cars getting stolen… every single time it’s either because their purse/backpack with keys in it was stolen...
Thanks for the detail on how the Ford ECUs operate. I'm more familiar with Subarus so that is different in a lot of ways.
It sounds like you're saying the Cobb tune doesn't change target torque, boost, fueling, or ignition timing? Or are you just saying the Cobb tune does change those values...
@COBB Tuning just got my AP for my '23 Maverick lariat.
2 questions:
1. was there any consideration made for '23 Mav models with the tow package which has a different gear ratio? According to this thread its a minor change from 3.63 to 3.81. (Mine has the tow package)...
I dont have this issue with my '23 Mav but I was out of town recently and rented a Bronco Sport and it had a terribly annoying vibration from the drivers floorboard when I was on the freeway. I poked my head underneath and the underbody panel was loose (broken clips or something). So, that's...
Concentrated Zep just strips the chrome off? Interesting. You could just spray the insert piece flat/satin black though too right?
Definitely a cheaper process than trying to source actual BAP headlights!
