Yeah I flipped my bracket and screw around as well.
Plastic fasteners would also be preferred, the metal clips were difficult to put in place without scraping the paint off the metal fender tabs. (Hit mine with paint any place I was worried about)
Yeah at 1/8 or 1/4 I would want it flat on the tonneau to avoid warping (unless a real short trip)
I hauled two sheets of 3/4 that stayed flat ā if you have a tonneau youāll need to remove it and angle the sheets it as other folks have said
Love the retro styling and the bench seat, love the range extender.
But yeah, wish it was smaller and cheaper.
Our Escape will be paid off soon with only 50k miles, but we are looking forward to having only one payment as our kids approach college age and/or need a hand-me down vehicle.

AFAIK, My 22 EB only had one recall that required parts replacement and that was the side-curtain airbags (which too a day and a half). Everything else was software stuff that I had sorted out when I was in for an oil change or annual inspection.
and for everything I wouldnāt have been aware...
That sucks, Iām sorry to hear it
it does sound like Covert Ford has good people working there - have they discussed different vehicles you might trade for?
My wife ordered me two from eBay when they first were available. Since then I found one at the grocery store.

- this is a drive-by-wire system, there is no mechanical link to the throttle plate, it helps to think...
The only time if I regularly experience something like that is when I have just switched from reverse to drive (like in a K-turn or backing out of a driveway with speed onto a road), it seems like an intentional protection for the transmission.
If I am leaving a red light I donāt experience...
the wheels are growing on me, I really disliked them at first, something about the polished black and the depth made them look like funhouse mirrors instead the racing-inspired appearance when in white and flatter.
Iām not sure if they have been revised since the prototype or of these are just...
Auto stop start wonāt operate if the computer thinks there is not sufficient cranking power to with the current battery charge compared to the current load ā air conditioning, blower speed, infotainment, headlights, steering wheel angle (electric power steering I believe?)

I moved a twin mattress last weekend, that one was easier because it fits between the wheel wells, but I wouldnāt hesitate to move a Queen
also get a plastic mattress bag from Home Depot so you donāt need to worry about dirt or rain.
Alright, might have to try out some of these sprays
two weeks ago I found out that the hood latch receiver on my wifeās 2018 escape is a lovely spot for a mouse house (metal dome on the underside of the hood, covered by the insulation blanket).
Last Sunday my family complained that my Maverick...
I bumped it once while putting my phone into the tray below the usb port.
the scary time was when we were on a long trip in heavy traffic and my wife was using my phone to look for a better route and she as she returned it to the tray she bumped it into neutral - I suddenly lost power and took...
