its different when you think your putting a hot iron between your legs but really its a red hot iron. McDonald's had no reason to brew their coffee even close to that temperature and with no warning. They had 100's of previous incidents of ppl being severely burned and yet they didn't add a...

As far as those stating high octane doesn't improve gas mileage, with this truck I disagree. It's known turbocharged engines run significantly better on high octane fuel and detonate quite easily on a low octane fuel. A smoother running happy engine in turn will certainly make better fuel...

oh I totally agree with you there! I just think it's crazy that the full story of the mcdonalds coffee paints an entirely different picture. Ugh could you imagine the pain she must have went through? !90 degree coffee right on the beaver.

hmm ya might be I have it on. Love it to be honest nothing bothers me more than needing to tap the brake and then reset my cruise on the highway because of some slow traffic. Instead it slows on its own and when I move to an open lane speeds right back up.

funny thing have you ever looked into that lawsuit with mcdonalds and the lady who got burned? Fact is the coffee was much hotter than a cup of coffee should have been (close to 200 degrees) and she had severe 3rd degree burns all over her crotch and legs. I know the majority of ppl are stupid...

I dont understand what you mean? if i set it at 55 then spped up to 60 all i have to do is push the speed faster button once and it sets at the speed im at. Plus 1 mph maybe.

How are you monitoring the intake temp?

wow consider me astonished! No matter how softly I drive I get nowhere near that mileage. I would like to try 87 to see the difference but I refuse to run ethanol so I'm just gonna assume it would be quite a bit worse. Although my old ranger didn't get much better at all with high octane. Still...

The connectors are waterproof and should all have a water resistant dielectric grease so unless you sit there and hold the pressure washer full blast I really doubt it would become an issue. I have pressure washed many an engine bay I just keep it on the wide low pressure spray never use the...

i think it says 50mph max because Ford knows its probably going to be installed by the owner or some other "uncertified" person and they are just covering their ass.

over 500 miles on 87? I find that quite hard to believe.... I run 91-94 octane depending on the store and always non-ethanol and I get at best 24 mpg. I could see close to that with a 2wd but not a FX4

you mean this thing...

OMG i hate that! I like to leave my truck running when I go in a store quick and I can't stand that double beep. Drives me insane.

what is that a picture of? It almost looks more like burnt plastic than carbon build up

NOW THAT SOUNDS INTERESTING! There is certainly plenty of room for a larger inter-cooler. A few inches thicker wouldn't be an issue at all. I didn't look if it could be wider but just a few inches thicker would make a difference. I'm also a firm believer in painting them black but I know some...

I actually like my wheels. The bumpers look good but I'd rather they were the same color as the truck. I can't stand the chrome door handles they drive me crazy.

As a mechanic I must agree I don't see the possible harm of a very small amount of oil/water vapor going back through the intake. Many engines and I think all modern on-road 4-stroke engines have this design and I don't know of a single one that comes stock with a catch can. The real problem is...

Ya I installed a dual port vent to atmosphere blow off valve from Turbosmart once in a while if I let off while making boost or dring a shift you can hear it. It's pretty cool but I bought it mostly because I plan on upping the boost eventually and the Turbosmart can handle high boost better...

wow chrome has dropped in popularity immensely in the past decade or so. Mine has the chrome package but I bought it off the lot so I didn't chose it. Honestly I think they look the best with the basic setup where the bumpers, door handles, and mirrors are the color of the truck and that's what...

It sounds great but as a powersports mechanic and knowing their snowmobile exhaust quality I'd never buy an MBRP product. Their snowmobile mufflers or "cans" are advertised as 5+ hp but in reality they are just straight through loud as hell and always lose hp. Usually at least a 2 hp loss...
