Because of the class action law suit for the way Ford computed the fuel mileage on the Dyno I have been keeping a spreadsheet on my fuel usage. I have a 2019 XLT super cab and recorded it since April 2019 to date. I do not drive the truck hard and more city driving than highway. My totals to...
My 19 XLT came with the AC plug also but I looked up the available amperage and it was really low. I'm guessing here but I remember about 2A maybe about enough to charge devices or run a tablet.
When I was working as a marine mechanic I often had boat owners ask me what to do to winterize their boats. My answer was always the same. Do like I did, move to or winter in Florida.
I agree. I have used West Marine Gel batteries (4) in my boat and get an average 15 to 17 years use out of them. I have lived aboard for 26 years so they get a lot of constant use and live on a 115V charger and or solar panel. When I worked as a Marine Mechanic I found that my experience showed...
My adult daughter owned Govt Motors vehicles for years and you had to slam the doors. The whole family gained the habit. I simply remind them before exiting to not slam the door. Maybe over time it will sink in.
I don't know about laws in Canada but I had similar vehicle problems with an Oldsmobile I bought in 1982. After about 9 months of no satisfaction with repairs that made things worse I tossed them the keys and said see you in court. The jury deliberated for 15 minutes and made them take the...
The Backflip cover came installed on my truck not sure who installed it dealer or factory. It leaked so bad they changed it under warranty with a new cover. I was there when they swapped them out. Because they are flush mounted, which I liked, they built in drainage channels to carry off the...
I don't think reading the computer on your vehicle randomly is a real accurate assessment of the actual mileage over the life of your vehicle under all conditions. I know mine starts out lower after a fillup and reseting the computer until driven a ways. I have kept an accurate record of my...
Had my Ranger in the dealer last week for the first service, "The Works" since I bought it last April. Mileage 8040. Have had no issues so far. Anyway when they called to pay and deliver the vehicle back to me they said the battery tested bad and they replaced it, under warranty. BTW they left...
My "Location" in the Ford Pass App stopped working about a month ago. I noticed last week that after the last update to the app it came back? A connection, who knows.
I have kept a spreadsheet of my fuel mileage since my vehicle was new (estimated first tank by dealer). To date these are my figures as of the last fill up. (Note I also often fill up when I reach 1/2 tank remaining. I live in FL and this allows me enough fuel to get out of Dodge to my refuge in...
