My last 5 vehicles have been orders and they came exactly as ordered. I have paid a fair price for the vehicle and don't mind waiting. My '19 Ranger was the longest I had to wait at 12 weeks. All of the previous vehicles were 4-6 weeks. Prices might be lower because the dealers will have less...
About 3 weeks ago, I took my '19 Lariat in because the ASS was not working consistently. The battery tested bad and was replaced. Everything seemed fine for about a week and then the ASS would only work sometimes. When it didn't work it said that the vehicle was charging. I had the battery...
The Lariat trim does not have the parking lights even though the bulb used is dual filament. There are only two wires going to the sockets. I found this out when I changed mine to LED lamps. I bought the higher priced dual LEDs from Diode Dynamics only to find out I couldn't use them to...
Since last year, Illinois only exempts $10,000 of the of trade value from sales tax. This was part of Governor Pritzker's plan to solve the state's budget problems.
I have the same ones. They have been on since last summer. I love them. Did have a little trouble with the driver's window bouncing back at first, but left it closed for several hours and it has been fine ever since.
When I first saw the colors for the BS, I was set on Cyber Orange to go with my Saber Ranger. But since it is only available with the BadLands pkg, and I think I would rather have the OuterBanks pkg, I need to pick another color. The BS would replace my Deep Impact Blue '15 Escape. After...
I have had both styles on vehicles, but prefer the in-channel. At first, I had issues with the auto-reverse on my '15 Escape front passenger with the AutoVentshade brand, but it has since adapted. This summer I purchased the EGR in-channel for the Ranger. At first the driver's side didn't...
I second that advice.
I also want to add a caution about Medicare Advantage plans. When you opt for one of these, you are giving up traditional Medicare. Hospitals and doctors do not have to accept them as they are required to do with traditional Medicare. The plans determine what they...
I did a dumb thing yesterday. I backed out of the garage in my '15 Escape (only 22k on the odometer), just as I have a million times, and was startled by a "bang" that came from the passenger side. I looked over to see that the mirror was folded towards the front of the vehicle. When I got...
I don't know about you, but think the new Illinois truck plates are kinda ugly. The only good thing about the new design is that law enforcement in other states won't confuse them with stolen plates like the poor guy driving in Texas had happen last year on Live PD.
Who did you call? What number did you use. The FordPass guides have said they would take of merging my old Ford Owners account (16,988 points) with my Ford Pass account, but I am getting nowhere fast.
I was able to smoke my for $0. I had scraps left over from my DIY window tinting days. The tiny was just right to blend in with the magnetic trim and not dull the light too much when in use.
Up through the '12 model year, the Escape was on the CD2 platform and was considered a "truck". With the '13 redo, it was put on the C1 which is thesame platform as the Focus to save money and make it more car like and reclassified as a "wagon".
Thinking about the Bronco Sport to replace my '15 Escape. It appears to be closer to my '10 that was on the Ranger4G platform, than my current Escape and the interior is more appealing to me than the '20 Escape's.
I still have my B&D Storm Station. When the battery won't hold a charge anymore, I get a replacement from my local Interstate Battery location. It is the same battery used by emergency lighting fixtures. I would think that you can probably do the same thing with just about any thing that has...
These came Thurs & Fri. Went all out and got the color changing LEDs for the front turn signals. The white ones are for my Escape.
Edit: The color changing ones for the front turn signals are only amber with the Lariat lighting. There are only 2 wires going to the turn lights, so they are...
