For sure something fishy is going on with our trucks.

I didn't read through this entire thread, but I did the blinker and PCM recalls on my hybrid a few weeks ago then the other weekend I lost power and had the straight flush of warning lights and error codes while driving on the freeway. Lost power, got off on an exit and into a parking lot in...

I am not at that place where I can discard the OEM tires just for the sake of upgrade, so I still have the stock Continental tires. I will replace them at or around 4/32 and I reckon I have another year or so before I get there. I value performance (including wet pavement capability... and light...

I ordered from cutter Ford in July 2021 right around when you could first order. I got my truck April of last year. So at least my wait was under a year? Lol.

Funny thing sort of related to this. Service motors ("servco") has so much power and is so tight with Toyota Japan that West Coast Toyota dealerships often refuse to sell you a Toyota if they know you are going to ship it back to Hawaii, lest they anger the powers that be. I know some police...

If brake hold is active when you turn off your truck, it will be active when you turn your truck back on. But if it is inactive when you turn off your truck, it doesn't turn itself back on at startup. It just stays however you last had it (unlike drive modes). Once you deactivate auto brake...

What do you consider to be "decent" shipping? Have you tried Paintscratch.com? Or amazon?

The irony is real

Sigh. For a while, as a kid, I wanted a garbage truck. Well, it seems like now I've got one, in a sense.

This is my thinking also, and I hope that they do this because at this point I refuse to have this as my primary vehicle once the factory hybrid warranty expires.

Those "magnets" are not for wheel alignment, but rather adhesive tape weights for wheel/tire balancing. Nothing too out of the ordinary there.

https://www.costco.com/type-s-8000mah-portable-power-bank-jump-starter-with-lcd-screen.product.100813421.html I have the older version of this, without the LCD screen, also purchased at Costco a while back on sale. It is what I used to start my hybrid when I had that no crank/no start issue...

Nice to see the company 1) offering a significant veteran discount and 2) being open about upcoming promotions to help you save money

I think, technically and medically speaking, Maverick-itis would be an inflammation of the Maverick? lol but I see your point (y):D

More than one recall a week on average, and more than Hyundai, Kia, and Tesla (!) Combined. Posted for your amusement without further comment:* https://www.theautopian.com/ford-had-more-recalls-in-2022-than-kia-hyundai-and-tesla-combined/ *Can't help but comment. I have had my mav for 9 months...

This feels sad to say, but I absolutely trust my 99 cent auto parts store tire pressure gauge more than whatever Ford pass app tells me.

Just in case anyone in the future comes wandering through here and believes these statements to be absolute fact, I'm here to be the fact police jerk and note that this is a mix of opinion and misconception (in particular as it relates to magnets and typical listening wattage that "we are used to")

Ya, I have my kid's booster seat installed on the other side (it's easier to reach diagonally across, if I need to, rather than straight back), so I was willing to sacrifice subwoofer size. These low end Hertz, honestly I'm sure they would do well under amplification, but for an extra $50 or...

For signal comes with high-level connection harness that you can splice into the speaker wire. You could also use RCA level if you had a line out converter or something. It also needs a [in-line fused] power cable, as well as a ground cable.

Hi folks. I just had an infinity basslink mini installed in my xlt hybrid (so base, non b&o branded audio system) and I thought I'd leave some [rambling] initial impressions. Here's an obligatory pic My preference would've been to install it under the driver's seat or passenger seat, but I...
