  1. Fas-Top Travel Package installed (painful but worth it in the end)

    You know, I do recall seeing that video but it drove me crazy that they took out all of his instructions and replaced them with that music! You could tell he was talking and pointing out things, but no idea what he said! I probably should have gone back and watched that one and just tried to...
  2. Fas-Top Travel Package installed (painful but worth it in the end)

    What did you end up with, or are you still going without?
  3. Fas-Top Travel Package installed (painful but worth it in the end)

    You are probably a bit more mechanically inclined than I am. I'll admit that I'm still learning that part of life, even in my 60's! ? The videos do a decent job of putting up and down, but I saw nothing about building and initial install of the topper. That's where the bulk of my time was...
  4. Flat Towing XLT 4X4

    OK. You were talking about the vacuum line, though, and I don't have one of those and still got the same message as the OP. That's where my confusion comes from.
  5. Fas-Top Travel Package installed (painful but worth it in the end)

    So, my Tremor came in and I picked it up last Friday. My Travel Package took a week later to arrive and I excitedly went out to put it on at 5 o'clock on a Friday of a holiday weekend. The good? High quality materials, very easy to switch back and forth between tonneau cover and soft-topper...
  6. Flat Towing XLT 4X4

    That's for an air-brake system, I am guessing? I don't have that with the Patriot II. Simply a mechanical floor-mounted pedal that actually depresses the brake pedal using an electronic signal. Sadly, I won't get a chance to tow again for several weeks to investigate.
  7. Towed Ranger

    Thank you. I have seen that "power point" setting in Forscan and had zero idea what they were talking about!!!
  8. Flat Towing XLT 4X4

    Hey, Roger. I just got my baseplate installed yesterday so this morning was my first toad experience with it. I got the exact same message. Just like you, I took it out of tow mode and started it up; the message went away and has not reappeared the rest of today. I am using a Blue Ox Patriot...
  9. The Lease Numbers on My New Tremor

    What the fuck, this forum is just so useless at times. You try to post things as helpful, you get chastised. You get told you don't know what you're talking about. Whatever. Seriously, there are just too many people whose entire life always to be to be on here and start arguments with people...
  10. The Lease Numbers on My New Tremor

    OK, for the SECOND TIME: This thread is NOT about me saying "Leasing is better"; this thread is about me showing what that actual discount was from MSRP to get the lease number to be what it is. People on this forum are absolutely fearful that they "didn't get the best deal", etc. I'm simply...
  11. The Lease Numbers on My New Tremor

    Yeah, that would be a bit much! :D
  12. The Lease Numbers on My New Tremor

    I'm trying to figure out why the salesperson told you no way. Were you doing something obscene, like 30K miles per year or something?
  13. The Lease Numbers on My New Tremor

    I wonder why the salesperson would have told him no way to leasing, other than his own "I want to sell this car as quickly as possible" and he was scared by the leasing thing.(?) I was going to mention to you, if you go to the Ford Build-and-Price, when you get done and go to the price per...
  14. The Lease Numbers on My New Tremor

    Eric, what is this "reimbursement deal" that you guys are referring to?
  15. The Lease Numbers on My New Tremor

    What I'm showing is what the net savings was from MSRP. That is the only way that we can come up with a legitimate number because if you simply work from the number that is listed, we'd all say "Dang, they're not giving a very good discount". Because Ford bumped the residual up by at least...
  16. The Lease Numbers on My New Tremor

    And, you're entitled to feel that way. I could have gone on and on explaining to those who don't understand leasing, or my use of it, but I chose not to. I have almost no intention to purchase this vehicle outright at the end of the lease. I like new cars too much and I love the fact that I...
  17. The Lease Numbers on My New Tremor

    Absolutely, they do. My Explorer was at 15K per year because we were still using it to drive back and forth to FL each year. Now, our motorhome pulls the Explorer (soon to be Tremor) behind it, so we don't need as many miles. What you will find is the payment usually goes up by about $25...
  18. The Lease Numbers on My New Tremor

    I lease almost all of my new vehicles and have done so since the mid-80's. The reasons are many, but they make sense for me in the way I do my vehicles and my budget. The point of this thread is NOT to be "leasing vs buying", it is to give an apples to apples case of what my Tremor actually...
  19. So, a funny thing just happened...Tremor is ordered!

    OK, so an update: Talked to my dealer today, and apparently not wanting the vehicle to be built quickly actually HELPS with the vehicle being built quickly!!! A VIN has been created and it is scheduled to be built the week of April 26! That means seven weeks from order until start of build...
  20. Disable fake engine noise

    Gotta admit, it's kinda funny that this is a video that teaches you how to turn off noise ???!
