For me, most add on have to have a function of some kind. The only none functional add on I got were cheap tailgate letters, and I could have lived without it.

I have the factory sliding rails, and can use the 2x6 wood pieces in the slots. You just have to slide it in under the rail. It's not that hard, might have to start it at a bit of a angle.

Not familiar with any of those brands, and I never shop at Walmart. :cool: Yes, oil filters can be hard to get as well and come in to the stores in small batches 5-8 at a time. Why? Because a lot of modern filters, wait for it you'll love this, use synthetic oil based plastics in the filter...

If you have an account, like the one I mentioned, you can look at all the service history for free. Yes it's not the full carfax report, but it will show all reported services, recalls, etc.

FYI for anyone doing DYI services, and want them listed in carfax report, you can self report to Carfax via their app and website. You can attach photos of receipts and such to the report.

If you lived here you’d have to penny pinch too, one of the most expensive places on this stinking planet to live. :ROFLMAO:

Sure they are not over charging, in the sense that is the price they charge for that particular product. I am not complaining about that, if that isn’t clear. I expect to pay more at a dealership or independent shop, I know that going in. I was simply surprised they were using non-Motorcraft oil...

This is my suspicion as well, they were already charging $40 more for a full synthetic Motocraft oil over the standard Synth blend motocraft as it was. We all know that's a joke, since a bottle of fully synth oil is $5-10 more than conventional, and likely even less so in bulk.

I don't really care about what brand it is, just not something I expected. If it was just a sub that would be fine, it just happens to be $20 more than they charged for Motorcraft on my last visit. It doesn't suprise me really, the dealership is part of a huge nation wide chain so the dealership...

Yeah, it is. I was shocked by the $100 for the motor oil. Usually they charge $80 for the Motorcraft full synthetic. Labour charges here in the lower mainland have skyrocketed in the last four years. When I bought the Maverick they were charging $80 for an oil and filter service, now it’s over...

They charged $50 Cdn for the ULV trans fluid, about what I would have expected.

I had an interesting surprise after getting and oil and transmission fluid change done yesterday with just over 30k miles now on my 22 Hybrid. The dealership I go to appears to be using Liqui Moly Motor oil, at least for full synthetic oil changes, rather than Motorcraft, like they have always...

Not yet, MY27 hasn’t been announced yet, let alone the data sheets and options. On his Maverick Monday video one of the dealer sales guys said it would be soon, within the next few weeks if I recall correctly. Expect price bumps, and some options being removed.

The new headlights will behave just like the factory ones.

I don't leave my keys in the truck on purpose ever, but I still like the keypad. I use it to get something from the truck when I don't have the keys on me for example. I have also use it when my keys were not handy, since I have a a pre-25 XLT without intelligent access. Also I had one time when...

Dealerships can be really hit and miss, just remember the youngest and most inexperienced techs do the oil and filter services. Always check their work.

I'd be willing to bet that most owners, besides some of the more inquisitive types, don't have a clue where the battery is.

Given that the battery is on the passenger side, right where the truck is stilling on the retaining wall, there is no way I would have tried to just drive it out in that scenario. Just stupid.

Sounds annoying. I suppose the selling dealership isn’t offering any assistance? Does your State have lemon laws if they cannot find a solution?

Totally agree, this is what happens when you lay off all your experienced people, then have to hire newbies to replace them three years later when your experiment fails. It likely doesn’t help that most of these types of fixes are often rushed to keep costs down.
