I'm not testing the Ranger. Just changing at 5k with factory stuff and sending it. Let's see if this can beat my last Hyundai on mileage, with a tune. I am at 16k miles now. 180k to beat. I ran my Korean built 2.0 lasted a bit longer after I noticed oil coating a spark plug before the...
RP destroyed a GL4 needing transmission of mine. Claiming it was GL4 compliant.
I never forgave them for that (Then switched to redline for my manuals and was amazed by what that did)
Does this have shit to do with engine oil? None. Just expressing my continued pissiness towards them for...
I'm sticking with what the factory put it in. Weight, oil, and filter. I was once a Mobil 1 only guy, but as another stated I've seen some funky stuff on Blackstone reports.
I'm just ignoring the 10k and changing it at 5k because I drive like an idiot from time to time. I'm sure for regular...
I have a tune that lets me go above 110. Based on its handling and brakes... I'll stick to not crossing the original limiter that isn't there........
unless it goes thru the traps above 110 when I get it to a track eventually. See what the Livernois 93 SS can do in the 1/4.
My truck has done some weird stuff that it never repeated. Mostly with SYNC but some weird in other areas. A long as it fires up and hauls ass I'll deal with it's many quirks. I like to think it gives it some personality.
Possible. Just wonder how enough moisture got in their for it to freeze. Are you able to take the intake off and look at the throttle plate? Phone a friend who can?
Nice. The Honda dealer near me was awesome when I had an Odyssey. So not all are bad. Their quick lane didn't need an appointment and was spot on with time, cost, and not screwing up. My current Ford dealer isn't terrible, just slow and are always booked when I'm working my new job. Other than...
After a year with it. This transmission is terrible/dumb as a box of rocks. The tune helped a lot but it still bangs into 5th cold and 8th hot randomly.
.... Unless
It lasts longer than the GM or Koreans it shares a driveway with... Then I'll forgive the weird crap it does from time to time...
After this thread I put security torx on mine then filled them with silicone to be extra annoying. They might key me or break the light but they are going to have a pain getting money from me. I hate thieves.
Someone didn't like the stolen fence post look of the stock exhaust when they bought it maybe?
It was amazing how much better a fairly cheap tip made mine look from the back. Not sure if I could put duals on it and it starting to sound like a pissed off Focus. I like the, makes no noise, but...
Ford should partner with sports bars based on how not quick their quick lanes are.. drive people over for a beer. Win! Less anger.
Thanks to the long waits I finally did my own change and tire rotation after owning it for a year. First three were on the dealership. Not bad, but not the easiest...
Ironically my best hires have been people who got tired of retirement and want to come back to work. So much easier to talk to that group. No bullshit. Here is what we have, what do you want... It matches. Awesome.
Not the .. playing word games with the younger crowd.
If you want a job in...
The ONLY good thing about a military pension/retirement. Started when I was 17. Now in the civilian world.
It is
.. different...
Mostly good. More boring than anything.
And I'll try and enjoy my 40s while they last for sure.
