Why? That looks like about 3" of ground clearance and almost no entry angle with the lowering kit that you are also showing. That might work on the track, but not normal roads. Its going to be in pieces after the first pothole. IMHO not suitable for a truck.

So the Fusion and the Edge made the most reliable lists, but Ford is otherwise not mentioned. Its interesting that both of these vehicles are discontinued models, so I'd like to see how they got new owner satisfaction surveys done when that is not possible on those models. Something is not...

You should have the matching pigtail in your glove compartment, which you can then wire up to whatever needs 12V power.

A lot of people aren't going to like this statement, but if you're not looking at a hybrid, buy the Hyundai instead. The wait time is just-plain stupid, and the Hyundai has a better interior, a better towing and weight rating, and looks pretty nice. Its a little bit more money though. Many...

Whoever told you that removing the chrome would not reduce the light output is just plain stupid. Why on earth did you believe them over the numerous other people who said don't do it. Give your head a shake. BTW, you think that the red lights are not affected, but I very much doubt that as...

Sorry, but I sincerely doubt that they actually have a functional JIT chain. If they did, I would not be on the end of a 13-month wait for an XLT hybrid Lux with cp360 and nothing else. With a month for shipping and the next 2 months already booked up, the best that I can hope for is a...

You're assuming that they fix their supply chain issues and don't idle the plant. While I agree that they can make all of the EB vehicles over the next month, getting any trim level hybrid in 2024 is looking very dicey at this point. Just a quick look at the numbers says that almost all of the...

Calm down. That's a heavy cast part with trivial surface rust, and not going to rust out for at least 50 years. The nice thing about surface rust like that is that it tends to lock things in place, so its actually an improvement.

37 is still too hard. Read your door sticker and drop it another couple of pounds. You're going to wear out your tires sooner than everyone else.

That's generally only true on the front shocks. The back shocks are always valved differently to give a fair amount of impact resistance. That extra job is probably why the really poor quality shocks on every GM and a lot of Mopars have worn out shocks and bounce down the road.

Come on, its a truck and not an impala. Its the softest riding truck that I've ever been in, and its actually softer than most Japanese and German vehicles. What was your previous vehicle that rides like it has worn-out shocks?

I'd bet that you in the initial stages of battery or BCM failure. Are you getting problems with the interior lights not coming on as expected?

I'd bet that none of those 10 are hybrids, as Ford is not even close to catching up. They have an excess number of EB parts, so that is what they are shipping.

You mean 400V instead of 56V, right?

I strongly suspect that your source of torque data is outright wrong. This spec comes from where? Where is the reference document? What stud elongation is your spec for? Why do you trust it instead of the known-correct Ford spec? Is it for just snugging up a bolt or for properly torquing an...

The CAT jumpstart box that Costco sells has only 8" cables, which makes it impossible to actually use under the hood or in the cab. Its a really bad design.

The 2.0 DI engine does not appear to have this issue. I have a high mileage one at 85k, and the Valvoline synthetic oil stays relatively clean until I change it at 7500. Maybe other manufacturers have too much blow-by to keep the crap out of the oil. Of course, I don't stand on the...

This seems to be a common issue on the hybrid and probably the primary reason why anyone would consider an extended warranty. Reading even the most expensive warranty coverage, it appears to be a not-covered part. Previously the entire exhaust system was replaced as a unit, costing US$1400...

12V@140A/0.80 efficiency = 175A@12V. For that, even welding cable to the battery is going to be insufficient. So, at room temp you need 2/0 cables, and assuming that you're going to need to derate it for peak summer 90F temps, you're going to need to use 3/0 cable, maybe from the electric...

So you left out huge parts of the picture. What I get is that you're asking if the stock computer injection, temperature and pollution profiles will just work with your heavily modified engine. The stock 250hp from 2.0L is already about 3 times what you could get from any 1980s V8, and about...
