Can't complain about this The gas station I filled up at was at the top of a long hill, so it's always fun to see how high I can get the reading. Actual mileage for the fill up was 26.393

The Lariat trim has LED fogs that are made as a whole assembly, so I couldn't change the bulb; I used Lamin-x yellow film instead. The fun part was removing the assembly to put it on - the lens is a circle that's placed behind the square openings. As for the grille lights, I pretty much followed...

I used Rustoleum gloss black automotive lacquer. I do not recommend it. It's really soft and has all kinds of road debris and bugs embedded in it now. At some point I'm going to take it off and get it professionally done because it looks like butt.

Yes - after re-reading what I posted, what I really meant was that the Escape had the overhead sunglasses holder, but it didn't have the felt lining.

The only issue I've had with glossy spray paint is that it shows every imperfection and dust particle that might touch while it's drying. A matte or even a satin finish will give you more room for error. The black lacquer I used was already glossy, but I lightly wetsanded it with 2000 grit...

I finally got mine done after multiple issues and recoats... My first mistake was breaking off the little dot that goes inside the cursive F. Luckily some superglue got it back on fine. Then I didn't wait long enough for the black lacquer to dry before putting it back together so I had a bunch...

Completely agree - I haven't had any issues with mine and they were less expensive than the WeatherTech ones.

We owned 2 Fiestas ('12 and '15) and a Focus ('15) that fall into the class action lawsuit, but never had any problems with the transmission in any of them.

I did use a primer - but I didn't sand it before priming - there are too many curves, angles, and little spots. I did lightly wet sand some larger areas between coats to get rid of drips and imperfections.

I'm very curious about this too. I made an account on where2wheel.com to look at the map a few weeks ago, but honestly haven't explored it much. I got my truck a month ago and have only driven in 4x4 twice - once in a snowstorm (and it worked very well) and another time when I tried driving it...

I should be in Chicago right now for the spring Ace Hardware convention, but it got cancelled. I'll admit I was a little surprised/upset at first, but now I'm actually ok with not going.

Late to the party, but I finally got it done. I painted the grill and the letters gloss black then put metallic blue vinyl lettering on top. The lights were sprayed with a few coats of smoke Plastidip before I attached them so that the orange wouldn't stand out too much during the day.

Some backstory with the fog lights - I had a '17 Escape that I put yellow LED fog lights in. After doing some research, I discovered the Ranger uses the same size bulb for the fog lights. Great - one less thing I have to buy and I'll have them right away. (The Escape was a lease that I was...

Small update - I got an email Friday morning from the Toyota accessories guy stating that the factory was back up and running and they should start shipping more units soon. Just checked my email and I have a tracking number!

I noticed today that the overhead sunglass holder has a felt lining - my 2017 Escape didn't have that

Right - and I have the black appearance package, so they're body colored instead of magnetic.

Rob from Deering, NH Picked up my truck on Friday; 5th Ford but my first truck. Had an '01 Focus for over 10 years, then went through a couple Fiestas (really miss getting almost 40mpg), and most recently had an Escape. Ford was offering a rebate for Escape leassees which basically took care of...

Took delivery this afternoon!

this would probably get flagged unless I can come up with an alternative explanation - probably won't do it, but this one is available:

So I'm supposed to be getting my truck Friday and went on a buying spree over the weekend for some goodies - I ordered the grille from the Toyota accessories guy and got this email today: "Greetings due to the issue over seas. The government has temporarily closed essentially all manufactures...
