^^^^ This is correct. I love science!! The universal gas constant (R) remains the same in this instance. Even if we used the individual gas constant for N2, it really wouldn't make that much difference. Dealerships are just scamming folks with the whole N2 thing. It is preferred in racing...

Just building off this concept rendering. Some folks dig pink I guess...

I'm not Daryl at a dealership...I'm Andy just a dumb ole engineer. When a vehicle lists a "cold tire pressure", it's referring to the tire’s pressure when the air inside the tire is at the same temperature as the ambient air, ideally around 60–70°F — and before the vehicle has been driven. But...

Mostly your Camshaft Position Sensor is telling the ECU what the current state is and the ECU can make it's calculations (I'm going to assume Volumetric Efficiency and Calculated Engine Load) which then relay to the VVT solenoids what to do. And oil does play a critical role because the phasers...

LOL...that's been on all the ecoboost variants since the beginning. It's all part of the PCV system. The early 3.5 used to have copious amounts of blowby which is why alot of people used catch cans.

After a little over 2 years and 51k miles I don't regret it a single bit. More fun to customize the base model to what I want and I didn't get that gawdy blue jean seats and orange interior from the XLT or the gawdy blue "leather" and gold accents from the Lariat.

It would be a complete waste of your money. All it would do is effectively increase your runner length and maybe if you're lucky it would just shift the hp/torque curve over some other desirable rpm range but I doubt it. Your intake manifold spacer or even a throttle body spacer is after the MAF...

I'm filled with envy!!! Exactly the one I want! I had a Chevy S-10 Xtreme back in the day and I feel like the Lobo fills those shoes perfectly! Can we get some interior pics? Congrats on the purchase!

I feel your pain. Been like this since August and I keep on driving it. Might see if Paintless Dent Repair can do anything about it one of these days...

ICI - Individual Customer Incentive...they can target a potential customer or most likely all the MY24's sitting on the lot. They usually try and get customers coming off a lease and provide them that "extra incentive".

Run from that dealer!!! You have port injection on the hybrid which has fuel washing over the intake valves. It's literally the best cleaner!!

Wouldn't surprise me in the least bit if they don't pull the ole 2003 F150 overstock. They basically had 2003 F150's that had not sold, made them 2004 F150 Heritages, alongside the all new designed 2004 F150. Complete mess when you own the new body style 2004 F150 and they try to sell you parts...

The dealership I bought mine from is already discounting 2025 XL's $1,000 off of MSRP. 2024 XLT's and Lariats are going for $2,000-$3,500 off of MSRP (both Ecoboost and Hybrid). No 2024 XL's on the lot so can't tell you about those.

Hands down best bang for the buck for the DIY detailer. A couple sprays on a microfiber towel then a couple sprays per panel. Work it in. Buff off with separate dry microfiber and you're good to go. Use on paint, plastics, and glass if you'd like to.

Yes, that is totally fine to use. You have painted wheels with a machined face. The whole wheel is clear coated which is what the ceramic coating will bond to. If you have them time I'd take the wheel off and coat the inside barrel of the wheel (you'll need the 30mL). Ceramic coating really just...

Probably going to be hard to get a good pic because I'm pretty sure it's up under the intake manifold. And if I remember correctly it's the PCV baffle/valve all built into one unit.

You could have a wheel bearing going out if they haven't checked that. A bad one can be very noisy when slowing down and sound alright while accelerating. A good way to tell is by seeing if the sound goes away while turning at those speeds. If you turn left and it goes away left side bearing is...

I've owned mostly Fords all my life with a couple Chevys here and there. I don't know if I could truly define "most passionate" but I can define quite a few others (my own opinions and some will disagree which is totally fine). Tesla owners-Most Pretentious (with Toyata Prius owners right behind...

If your Windex contains ammonia then you've just canceled out the cleaning effects. Ammonia and acetic acid make ammonium acetate so you could be leaving a nice salt residue on your window if you don't wipe it off well. Honestly, the key to cleaning windows and leaving a nice streak free surface...

Yes, if you want the most out of the 4k then keeping the 245/65/17 puts you at a gear ratio of 3.72 which is way better than you would get with the 265/70/17
