Not sure about the Mav fit. It's too big for tiny lawnmower sized Honda filters but I use it anyway, it doesn't fall off. On an unrelated note, Fram filters are junk unless using the Fram XG which is a good filter. Not my opinion. I have cut them open to see for myself and the Youtube and...

This is video is similar to the one I saw. These things are a bit heavy, I have no issues lifting it.. I like the wheels. Mine uses a side handle but since I saw this, I might add wheels. If he doesn’t give dimensions, I can give you exact measurements of mine. It has a long top plate so I...

Yes. I have a recommendation. These are my ramps that I use and they are excellent. Far superior to to any composite ramp that you can buy and I don’t have to worry about these collapsing, although I still use a secondary floor jack as a safety catch just in case. This is from my post on the...

I'm near Columbus. I would include free shipping in state, or nearby. Oregon, CA, or Hawaii would need some conversation on shipping costs.

I ordered my Maverick on 12/6/21 and still more delays. New in box MRT no drill hood struts for 2022+ Maverick. I planned to instll the struts upon arrival but no build date or VIN I had to make a new plan Stan and I need to sell these never opened or used hood struts. We can discuss...

$250 max in Ohio although I saw a Cincinnati Acura dealer with an $899 fee. Dealers may charge less, the maximum allowed is $250, there is no set minimum in my experience of 30 years in Ohio. I don't know about Ford's involvement. It would be a stupid business plan for them to refund state...

Did it work?

Ordinarily this would be a factor but this foolishness has been going on for 20 years. Several Odyssey, MDX, I've owned and my 2013 Accord among many other brands don't have Homelink and my Accord is an EX-L, 1 level down from the top end Touring. When Homelink is offered, it is often bundled...

9 pages and no one has installed one yet? This all sounds too good to be true. Think about it,. This auto dim mirror with built in Homelink is cheaper than a mini Genie garage door opener that I have on the visor if my 2021 Rogue right now. It works fine. I might use my brother's Optima...

Nice win. At Carmax, I got $500 less than I paid 4 years and 8 months ago. Problem is now I have to pay full MSRP and when I bought my Pacifica I got 9K off. Not because I am a brilliant negotiator (I am pretty good) but that was the advertised price. My local dealer couldn't come close so I...

I wasn't in the market for anything new but on a whim, I checked the value of my old cars and was shocked. These crazy used car prices aren't going to last so I struck while the iron is hot. That's when I ordered a Mav. In the last month I sold my 2017 Pacifica 59,232 miles to Carmax for $23K...

Wow, interesting. I don't even have a build date yet but my Lariat Luxury has it from the factory so I don't have a choice for an aftermarket SIBL. You have to wonder. The company who does this for Ford has to have experience with other models they've done and should know about the potential for...

Going by what my sales guy tells me. Sounds like a fantasy based on experience here.

Great video and this is how DI engines need to be done. How often as a routine job? 10, 20, 50K miles??

Thanks for the info. Helpful especially for those who are waiting for a vehicle and manual. I generally go by the manual and the Ford people are way smarter than me but there's no way I'm using a blend oil. Only full synthetic for my vehicles. There is zero advantage to use a blend, not...

That's generally the rule of thumb for most cars. Sounds good for the Mav.

Based on this confirmation and my engineer neighbor who is a bigger nut than me, my go to oil is Pennzoil Platinum. I've been using Plat for the last 5-6 years. Amsoil is slightly better.

Did they mention what the breakin period is. 1k, 3k, 5k?? Good point on cleaner synthetic oils. Heat and coke buildup on the turbo shaft bearing is reduced significantly with synthetic oil. I use synthetic on all cars even if the non turbo cars can get by without it. I never extend intervals...

I hate most blues but I ordered Area51. I like red but not Hot Pepper. I dislike nearly all grey but I love silver. Hate black. Love orange, pearl white, and certain browns. For used cars, color is irrelevant if the car, miles, and price are right. Having owned over 65 cars, I have had every...

I love the Rivians and the quad motor (1 per wheel) sent Tesla back to the drawing board for the Cybertruck. I hope Rivian does great. I have a reservation for the R1S SUV and hope I can order it soon. I just placed a reservation yesterday (2 days after they opened ) for the Silverado EV. That...
