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...
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...
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.
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...
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.
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
