Yes, quite shocking. And an opportunity to lament the situation afflicting all new car sales, which is how warranty work is funded. Flat rate auto techs are at the bottom of the hill that has shit constantly rolling down it. Well, the discussion over having evidence in the event Ford doesn't...

Haven't racked up those kind of miles since the 80's when I had a field service job around Chicago. I'm not convinced you have that many miles solely because of love for the truck :). Even with only 2k on it, I really enjoy mine.

Like this?

At 1,900 miles and with a nice amber hue I preferred waiting for the first change, but that's not how it went yesterday. I now have a fresh fill with 5w20, if I'm to believe the invoice. They comped it, but somehow I don't feel any better. I've gone from a bit of concern but a willingness to...

Wish I could say the same, but at 1,900 miles the oil level in my truck is almost halfway between the max hole and the twist. OTOH it doesn't smell like raw fuel, and it was at least at the max mark at around 800 miles. I didn't wait the full 15 minutes or check it cold back then like I am now...

FYI the OBDlink EX is $10 cheaper direct from scantool.net right now. Quite an Amazon tax otherwise.

I'd say that's a pretty good description of my early disappointment with its braking. I'm not really sure if I'm just getting used to its behavior or if it improved a little in my 2 months of ownership. Or if it has something to do with my no longer driving like the old man I'm becoming in those...

Hahaha. Well won't she feel silly if you have to spend double or more because she needs something towed immediately.

Good choice not putting too much energy into defending the indefensible :). Then again, what happens if you have a sudden unavoidable need to tow?

Have you tried Windows night light feature, or something like f.lux?

Legalese that varies from state to state. Is there something in particular that you're concerned with? The best place to start is the Ford warranty guide, which for 2019 is online at...

Me either Haha, I'll be sure to use those cheap HF impact sockets on it. I found yet another guy who wants to be famous on youtube who spends crazy money on serious equipment, then measures torque-ability of various tools. He did one with 4 bars, one Snap-on, a Mac, another one I can't recall...

Sure, https://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B07WSYKMPJ/ref=dp_olp_new_mbc?ie=UTF8&condition=new. I bought the last one they had in stock a few weeks ago, and it looks like they haven't gotten any in yet. But it's like 50c cheaper now :). Being Amazon, I wouldn't trust that price to stick once...

Pretty much every time I see this thread, I have to control my desire to post two things. The first is "not a friggin' thing" and the second is to thank you all for your service (to the strong economy). But for the record, in my couple months of ownership I've only gotten some Husky liners for...

Yeah, the order guides aren't the easiest read but I like them for reference.

Ah the old courtesy wipe, it can be quite refreshing. Sorry, but if you're gonna lob softballs... From what I can see in the order guide, only 501A comes with rain-sensing wipers.

I don't think these have port injection to help with valve washing, so additives likely don't do anything for crust on the back side. Ford also has, in the past anyway, provided no solution to the problem other than replacing the head(s). IIRC they recommended against walnut blasting or other...

I don't know anything, let alone if it will be the base engine. I know I trust at least some things the regulars say at BlueOvalForums, including this recently: "T6 Gen 2 corrects all short comings with I-4 and V engines and then some...". It's not much without context I realize, and could...

As I understand it, the frame will remain unchanged but a tophat change is necessary in order to fit that 2.7l.

I'd ask you how so, but I fear we'd piss some off for discussing it. Some here seem to think you can't like Toyota's if you're a Ford guy. Strange notion to me.
