A really great example of being "upside down" is I buy a $80,000 BMW X5 4 years ago and want to trade it in for a new $80,000 X5 today, but I still owe $57,000 on my current X5 and they will only give me $35,000 on my trade. That's a negative equity of $22,000 which means my new X5 will cost me...

To me it was a major misstep for Ford to launch their EV efforts with a product that ended up being a $90-110,000 vehicle for most people. Ford, to me, is the company that could make an EV for everybody and that means $30,000 - $40,000 trim levels for a basic vehicle with AC and a radio and...

@subquark if you ever feel like one day I've blocked your comments it is not because of anything you've said or done, it's because you post too many products that I myself then start to convince myself that I also need - Olights in this case - and I'm starting to think our relationship is not...

We escaped the 116° heat wave by going swimming at Grandma & Grandpa's house (my parents.) "Ducky in the Trucky"

What a trek! Is this your first trip like this? Thanks for sharing - really cool to see.

Per this video: The valve stem might have TPMS engraved in it. If you're lucky you may be able to identify the unit per the stem. Here's a picture of a Bronco unit: I don't see any engravings from this angle... You might have to air down a tire completely and peek in.

I was curious - I looked to see if there were any lessons I could sign up for to learn how to safely tow a large trailer and the closest thing I could find was RV driving school / Commercial Trucking School in Nevada, USA. I imagine I could find someone to teach me privately if I were so...

Happy anniversary Kristina - I always enjoy reading your content and learning about EU Rangers!

@gwhalin - There is one mention of it in the manual. I took a screenshot off my phone - the word "Transmission" is highlighted because I was doing a search for that word to see if it came up in the manual. This is the only place I found it.

What are you talking about? I read their newspaper ? https://www.betootaadvocate.com/ Glad you had fun, looks like a great outing!

Welcome Danny! Gorgeous cactus truck.

Client: "Color me impressed, Bob, however, I did think it was obvoius I meant RANGER RAPTOR"

Yes, exactly - I was meaning a fuel trim issue. Its a pretty big leap but without any trouble codes all you have are the hard facts that you're at least 2-3 MPG off what a 4x4 is achieving no problem.

I think your only options are to hook up some live diagnostics to your truck with a laptop and a cable (or a handheld that does it if you happen to have access to an Autel or something like that,) Look at the data for your air and fuel. It could be a trim issue. That said option 2 is a bad one...

Tell her, as the saying goes, "When in Rome..." You were in some of the most picturesque locations not only in our Country but on the Planet! A price to pay, sure, but the payoff must be grand.

Welcome back Dave! Thanks for taking us along for the ride. This was really a wonderful journal of your adventures. You really seemed to have made the most of your time. Money Pit the Second is properly broken in now, I suppose, and in the best way imaginable! Glad you're both home and Annie can...

Ugh Morgan! Rough luck. I'm glad you are alright and aren't out a vehicle for the time being. Hope it gets fixed well.

SELL: 2023 Lariat (With the markups I'm about to add I'll make a killing.) BUY: 2010 Sport (Lovely little truck.) CRUSH: 1983 XLT (Because this particular XLT has been neglected and is not safe to drive!)

Is this the same group or a different group of 2023 2.3 engines that had the oil passage that wasn't machined correctly?
