Posted without comment so y'all can be as surprised as I was about this little and apparently unknown, well kept secret:
Man Calls Electric Vehicles ‘Biggest Scam of Modern Times' After Buying a Nightmare Electric Truck (msn.com)
So I dropped the Truck off at a custom shop to get a laundry list of things installed and looked at. they worked on it today and I picked it up at the end of the day. some things they couldn't do for various reasons but all in all they did a admirable job and gave me sound reasons for not...
I listen to my flash drive almost exclusively but about half the time when I start the truck it can't find music for a couple of minutes and then I have to change the source to USB. I also ran a test of the randomizer and while it was better than what was in my 2019 it still lost its place...
I bought the Retect auto fold mirror and had it installed. I love it. been looking for the auto window thing and I will be getting this one as well. I will take anything Australian over a POS Chinese crap all day every day
reading these threads has convinced me of two things. 1) I will be buying the ESP because it is worth it for the peace of mind. My pops used to say "Carry full coverage Insurance on anything you can't afford to replace" ESP is basically that for me. I am looking at retirement in the next 1-2...
thanks .. and there is a reason I am paying to have them done. I can do a lot of stuff but things that require finesse are not things I am good at. I have 8 fingers and 2 thumbs until finesse is required then I have 10 thumbs and always wind up breaking something
Had my undercover Armor Flex tonneau cover installed. Ordered it on Saturday and it came in yesterday install was included in the price because great shop.
Next up: auto folding mirror module, high intensity lights, new fog lights all going in on Friday
Same here, in the entire time I was out there they were pretty great trucks and got us around just fine. Until one of them got stolen. LOL ...
the Base MPs found it sitting between a couple of hooches and were pulling the tarp off of it when a marine SGT stuck his head out and asked them...
I am 70 this September. I have the tools and the know how to do most of my own work if I so choose. However, when I weigh the time it takes, against the value of my time I find there are things I enjoy more and would rather do. So .. I take our vehicles to a stealership up the road. Would...
My Ranger is still new. don't have 5k miles on it yet. I did my first oil change at 1k, my 2nd at 3k, and will do them every 5k from there. I use whatever ford puts in it because I have a good quick lane at the dealer I use, which is NOT the dealer where I bought the car.
I don't expect to...
There is a reason I never turned WiFi on in my truck..
My Father spent a number of years in SAC. We spent 6 years on Vandenburg AFB, the went to Hawaii when he went into the OSI
and now I am home. didn't take a lot of pics. I topped off the tank on my way out of town. and hit 25.3MPG for a bit. kept it around 75 for most of the way but hit 90 doing some passes on 2 lane roads and hit 80 a couple of times jut because I could. By the time I got home MPG was right...
So here I sit in Alexandria, LA. Left the house yesterday, at 9 actually hit the road about 10. Managed to get 23.8 average mpg for the trip which about 6 hours including a couple of stops on the way. One tank of gas but when I pulled into town I was on my last gallon had to fill up before I...
I started doing that because I read in a tech article that it was bad juju. To be honest I had to look for something similar because I couldn't remember the details https://www.motor1.com/news/298622/stop-fueling-up-pump-off/
the entire job. including 400 for taking the hail dings out was 4800. I went with the god package LOL.
Interesting note on the hail dings. I had no idea they were even there. you couldn't see them in the daylight but when you got them under the brighter lights in the shop you could see...
So I just got the Truck back from the Auto Spa where I sent it for a weeks vacation. While there it was washed, paint corrected, had a few hail damage spots taken out, PPF on the front, and then ceramic coated front to back and inside. Figured to get it done before I take a short trip to...
