That is an interesting description. You turn the wheel to the right, and you feel as if you are being "pulled" to the right instead of like you are turning to the right?
It is the fact that you must be moving for this to occur that is throwing me off.
It just keeps sounding to me like you've...
@akcar - Umut if I'm understanding correctly - you say when you are idling, parked in a parking space, you can turn the wheel left and right with equal resistance?
When you are moving, the car turns to the left with ease. The car turns to the right with much resistance?
I'd be suspicious if...
This is a coolant hose, correct?
I know anecdotally from working on older cars that coolant hoses can deteriorate very quickly with age. In cases where people get oil intrusion and intermix the old wives tale is you've got a couple weeks to clean them out before they split sitting on the shelf...
@bsr956 - with all of the mounted accessories, the graphics, and the radio tuned to 70s on 7, I'd have to say all clues point to yes.
Great detective work!

It's gonna be one of the ones from the bottom row most likely. Compare to what you pull off your truck for best results! This comes with the tool...
If you do go OEM be sure to check in with Benny @LevittownFordParts.com for a discount code before you purchase. This would be one well worth the effort of reaching out in my opinion.
Oh, Gerd, tell me about it. I've got these two standing around with their charging cables constantly chanting "Come ride in our Electric Car, Strangelove. It will be fun!"
@SilverXLT6 - to make a long story short I have an extra set of the nuts and bolts and I will happily mail them to you free of charge if you end up needing some. Go ahead and order the cover.
If you need them just send me a private message and we'll get the shipping going. I'm active on the...
@Nshoe2062 - you're welcome. I have no personal experience with this - it is just something I have seen a couple of times on this forum and have witnessed many times in my lifetime with other brands. There's a chance that only your dealership has this negotiating power - but if they are...
@Nshoe2062 - Are you the original purchaser of the truck? Did you use the word "goodwill" when asking for help with the situation?
That is how most manufacturers internally refer to this phenomenon of helping people out of warranty - "customer goodwill".
It might be worth your time reaching...
Kristina the picture speaks 1,000 words. I'll bet you walk up to the bright orange truck in a sea of neutral colors with a big smile on your face. My blue makes me feel the same way!
@P. A. Schilke - I had always considered it such a cool opportunity to share the forum with a man that has had so much to do with the truck I hold so close to my heart. In the case of my very first truck, my 1991 Ranger, you had everything to do with it. Wish I still had it.
I wish you an...
It looks like you've reached a conclusion already at that price point and I agree with you. At near $70,000 before discount it seems like they marked it up before they marked it down... Who knows.
I was going to say - to remain as objective as possible the only thing that would give me pause...
