I can tell the frame and suspension has a lot of thought put into it. It’s probably the stoutest midsize truck I’ve ever drove. hopefully the mechanics and electronics hold up as well. My main fear being the transmission, it seems very near death when it hangs up and starts jerking me around.
damn what a stupid design. Them rubber tubes always dry rot quickly. I wonder what they were thinking. Is your wife a power lifter? How did she manage to steer that mofo through several lanes of traffic? Glad she’s ok.
I looked at some brand new ones in the parking lot of a Toyota dealer not long ago. Guess what? Almost every weld on the front half of the frame had rust starting to show already.
I already know its got a little gas in It. Been working on trucks my whole life. Almost every ford on the market these days has a little gas in the oil. If the truck didn’t have a hundred and twelve gears and actually let the rpms get above 3k I believe most of the gas in oil problems with...
I have. The problem is when I open my door in the morning for the first time and the lights come on, they won’t cut off no matter if I press the lights themselves or the switch. I have to disconnect the battery for them to cut off. It’s a pain in the butthole driving at night.
Naw, it is in relation to speed, it gets louder when decelerating, being loudest at about 5-20mph it started immediately when the transmission shifting issues started. Im not very smart but I believe the torque converter can cause funky shifting if the pump is starting to go bad.
that was the least offensive way I could reference a group of feminine men that live in the concrete hell most people call home. The same ones I read about measuring which side of their bumper is higher than the other and all that stupid crap.
Hey that’s just my style. My wife always says to me “you are getting old and broke down and you complain about your knees all the time, but you sure are good looking”
I reckon that’s all that matters ain’t it?
Glad you got my sense of humor.
So far, I absolutely love the truck. The body of these trucks is pretty substantial and the suspension is great from the factory. Not a fan of the electronics but then again, I’ve been driving 5 speed beaters with manual locks and windows since I started driving...
