They often make stupid decisions. This new green reminds me a bit of the slime green that was the color on my first car, a used 1971 Maverick.

My experience has been different. They've generally been very good on wet and dry pavement, mediocre on grass, dirt and gravel (which I seldom drive on), but not very good in the snow. They have almost 30,000 on them and are about due for replacement. And since i moved into snow country, I know...

I'm 6' 2 1/2" and I fit fine in the Maverick. Sure, the ranger would be a little easier to step into and out of but I went for the 30+ mpg and modest towing capacity. which I have used a fair amount last summer while moving.

Eliminating the EB from the Lariat is the quickest way to ensure that I won't be replacing my Maverick with another one when that time comes. And removing the B&O sound system from the Lariat likewise makes it less appealing. Looks like Ford is stripping the Maverick trim levels down to keep...

I, too, was a C&D reader, had a subscription for many years. Who can forget Patrick Bedard's columns speaking out against the double nickel (vote with your foot), articles about how to avoid getting nailed by radar, and a couple of impairment tests that they did (on a closed track setting, not...

Indeed, I chose the 2.0 EB over the hybrid partly because i needed the towing and in 2024, there was no 4K towing with the hybrid. And frankly, his colorful description of the 2.0 EB being "buzzy" is ridiculous. It's is not. And if you'd watch Andre on TFL pulling roughly 4000 pounds in the...

yeah, I wasn't about to turn off my ad-blocker just to read it. I think the biggest plus for me was going from a 21 mpg highway F-150 to a 32 mpg highway Maverick. It's still pretty quick and nimble, though my tuned 3.5 was very fast. Downside is off-road and towing, but the F-150, in it's...

It looks like a maverick to me

I always wait 30 seconds and pump some more. To allow the gas to settle into the tank. They tend to shut off a little early, though I usually only get about 3/10 to half a gallon more in. Been doing it that way for many years and have yet to have an evaporator issue.

Get a second opinion. There was a large chain of transmission repair shops that, back in the 70s and 80s, used to routinely tell the customer that their transmission's days were coming to a close due to "shavings in the pan". They'd then show the customer a little sample of the oil that they got...

I have no doubt that most any modern car is hackable. Maybe not by an amateur in 2 1/2 minutes but they will undoubtedly get batter at it.

should have answered, in an Ahnold voice, "It's not a toooomer"

Before - Left 0.28, Right 0.04 After - left 0.14, Right 0.14

That front toe definitely got adjusted.

Sure, Ranger-sized turbo, Borla exhaust, fancy stripes and fins - and Rich Corinthian Leather interior. It's part of the Cordova package.

1 grand a month for a car - ridiculous. That's more than my last house payment!

4 or 5 years total. That's about how long I keep any car, with a couple of exceptions.

I want to see some numbers. 0-60, 1/4 mile, cornering force, lap times. Let's see what 300 hp can do!

so the message on my ford app is basically a lie. It says "if you do not tow with your vehicle, you may wait for ota deployment for your vehicle remedy" - which implies that there IS an OTA possibility. Doesn't matter much to me at this point, though I will get it done next time I'm at the...

Out of curiosity, can a 2024 Lariat receive OTA? thanks
