TBH - i have every bolt on engine goodie available. Stock tires and engine - i was putting around at 32mpg into town, and 26 out. i am sure it would be much less without my bolt-ons and tunes with the 35s.

28 mpg.. Into the valley, 65mph, 60 deg, Van Halen wakeup 24 mpg.. out of the valley, 10-65 mph, 95 deg, Def Leppard to keep me sane. 21 mpg.. farding around in the city. Tim Pool humor 4x4, FX4, 35" At/Mt, bash plate, Winch bumper, 200# alum shell.

I agree they are smart.. but under the boot of the EPA, they engineer to squeeze .25mpg and not longevity of our investment. ULV is not a magic potion devoid of wear. 45 years of being the only wrench on all my fords.. I'll defer to the service intervals refined by experience of myself and...

I have a BDX from SCT with 4 5-Star tunes - 87 tow/performance and 93 tow/performance. I can adjust tire size, TPMS, Adaptive Tables, Crank Relearn, and KAM Reset.

I use the app to turn on the car as I make coffee.. it is just about 60 second walk in the bitter cold winter here in AZ for the RPM to drop as I get to the door. I alternate between tow and locking out 9/10, tho I have not tried sport mode. I will have to add that to my repertoire. So far...

My 22' TT is pretty easy - 4400# - Trips to Dolores CO, Yellowstone, and this year Glacier NP. Little more challenge with my 26' Beneteau 26 - 7000#.. And when I feel like getting offroad - my little popup is hardly noticeable @ 3500# Note - for the longer on-road adventures, I keep a...

My experince .. 1)1998 5.4l Expedition 4" lift, 34" tires - I took her to a reputable trans shop for a flush at 140k- 5k miles later I was in the shop getting a new trans (nuked the TC while wheeling in Rocky Mtn NP). From there, I started doing pan drops every 30k all the way to 420k before...

She is not really an XLT anymore. I think I will be making a badge to read like below in the XLT vent - just need my rat kids to print a couple out: . Trans oil pan drain every 30, Full Synth every 10, drive it like I want another truck payment... Her beginnings - 3200 miles - purchased on my...

I got mine with 3300 miles on her, on my birthday in Jan 2021. She was a total loss from a front-end collision and rebuilt before I got her. Today she has 98k miles and has been the most fun in my 45 years of driving - until I got an Explorer ST 3.0 for the wife.

2021 @90k with just about every bolt on engine upgrade you can find in craigslist with 33" tires. Cross country towing 4k - 6k sailboats or campers from Phx to Sea/ Dallas/ Denver. Transmission and transfer case oil changes every 3rd oil change (30K). I also added a home made transmission...

I found a Eibach Stage One new in the box on Offerup to replace the puck lift. Also installed BDS Shackles and replace the UCA. I set the lift to max that added about 1". The BDS Shackles leveled the ride and reduced the drive shaft angle. the UCAs allowed the alignment shop to zero the...

I tow 500# up to 7500# sailboats on trailers and 4500# TT regularly. I installed the Bilstein's and the Loadlifter 5000# airbags. I went bags due to the ride quality unloaded is unchanged, and the bags raise the back of the truck to initial height after you hitch up. There is no impact on...

The hose clamps are ok. I ended up towing 10400# gross weight from 1100' to 7800' with a naturally aspirated 2.3l on 33" tires when a few of the hose clamps decided to leak - shutting down any boost. Spent the afternoon under a pine tree in 60 degree sunshine removing all the pipes and...

I updated to the rigid pipe and mishimoto intercooler the day of a trip up the mountain to Flagstaff. With the 5star tune, i barely knew the 24' camper was back there.. until i lost boost. I thought I had left a packaging material in one of the new hoses. Turns out, one or more of the hose...

I have a Mishimoto Wrinkle Black Intercooler Piper & Boot Kit and intercooler on the tailgate - will go in tonight! 5-Star updated my tunes since I did not even think about the intercooler until the day before I got my tunes and the item popped up on offerup.... Super awesome of them to do that.

Updates since last post - - SPD 3" Aluminzed Catted Downpipe - MBRP Installer Series 3" Aluminized Turn-Down Cat-Back - Lincoln MKz 10-way leather front seats with heat/cool/massage. 5 Star is working on a tune. Great seat of the pants upgrade so far. Once the tune is in i will update again.

I am game. Something in and around the Mead rec area, or are you looking at further up?
