If all else fails I still have a bicycle.

Just got another cracked windshield requiring replacement. The first time it cost over a grand because it has to be calibrated for all the modern technology. Got the same quote again yesterday. My question is: is the technology really necessary for the vehicle to operate? Can I live without...

Try some hook and loop straps, aka velcro.

That sounds way more complicated than my experience. As a Mac user since forever, all you need do is copy contents of your disk to the thumb drive. No need to rename anything. Pretty straightforward. There's a free app called Clip Grab for downloading music from YouTube. In that case it...

I had the same issue with less than an inch of snow; slid through 2 intersections even with AWD, factory tires, 11,000 miles, slick mode dialed in. Luckily nobody else nearby. I've plenty of experience driving in snow. My Honda Element never slid even I tried to get it to and it didn't have...

Yes, those are called a fairing, something I've made custom for others in the past. I’ve got custom designs for them and with the current technology just about anything can be printed and applied to them.

That's why companies offer fairings; the typically black acrylic shield that helps reduce noise. They also add some degree of flair. In a previous life I used to make them and decorate them with custom designs and could do that for you if you're interested. DM me if you'd like samples. (I'm a...

As an experiment with that app 'ClipGrab', I tried downloading a book from YouTube and it worked fine. It's a 9+ hour audio on YouTube and it took less than 1/2 hour to download. It takes up a full gigabyte of space on my drive but it's there to put on a thumb drive. I'm on a Mac and it played...

Ditch the CDs and convert everything to digital and thumb drives. Gigabytes of storage and no need to worry about scratches.

Kudos to being a Mac guy. Me too. There's a free app called "ClipGrab" that works for downloading content from YouTube. I've saved gigabytes of songs to thumb drives and never listen to radio stations. It's a lot easier than the process you describe; saving in different formats and having the...

Nice rack. I work for a midwest manufacturer that is capable of building them and would probably be able to work with the guy to do that.

Only 600? I paid 1,200 three months after I bought the truck. On top of 8K in hail damage.

For some it is.

I'm weird in that, yes, I bought an eruption green hybrid AWD and love it, but would love to see a bare metal option with clear coat, a la late WW2 American fighter like a Mustang or Thunderbolt. I don’t think I'd worry about dings and scratches as much. And if you're looking for a vehicle to...

What are the specs for the truck? ie year, hybrid, fed, etc?

I have the Eruption Green XLT hybrid AWD. So far, so good.

I saw that somewhere else too. Pretty funny indeed.

How 'bout, "...I'd rather save the money for Scotch & more bullets..."

Funny, but I'm a longtime Honda owner too, also driving my first Ford, new at least. I had a 1972 Mercury Cougar in high school (I'm 63). This Maverick is my first Ford. I miss my Honda Element mostly because it was paid off and the insurance was dirt cheap and would have lasted another 200K...

It wasn't that blatant; just a reference to this forum leaning in a direction.
