Stay away from Ferman i had them do an alignment and they gave it back with the steering wheel off center. i made them do it again and after 3 hours they couldn't get it right, i had to go to Walker to get it fixed correctly.
I've been watching this guy tear everyday common engines down interesting to see how everything fits together or why it failed

The Roush airbox top does not have a provision for this hose to clamp too, when i e-mailed them and brought it to their attention the response was they would include a long zip tie so you can tie it to the intake tube
Just curious as to what everyone uses for their go to waterless car wash? I have been using tri-nova from gold eagle, its probably the best one i have used but it looks like it got discontinued. In the past i have used Aerospace Wash n Wax all, and Chemical Guys eco smart.
i used to manage at a big box office supply retailer one year they told us to set our Christmas displays in August, We had back to school, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas stuff all set at once it was a mess.

Smog check in NC is a Fkn joke; just plug a scanner into the OBDII port and makes sure it passes I/M monitors and no DTCs preset ? also the amount of exemptions and the fact its only required in 19 counties why bother. Took the escape in to get smogged and inspected for renewal. $30 later...
i put the Class iV draw-tite from amazon on my ranger when i needed to tow a 5x8 u haul trailer, (was cheaper to buy the hitch and rent the trailer for 1 way then it was to rent a truck) no issues with the hitch , install took 15 minutes with a friend. Clamp bumper ears, remove 4 bolts...

; 57K miles i added the 2 extra tie downs and the engine cover. i drove it 36K miles in the first 2 years for work, the last 2.5 years its just been a weekend toy and a moving truck :crackup:
