I've never found a need to put "ballast" in the trunk after MANY years of driving in the snow. Besides, that extra weight means 2 things -- longer stopping distance in an already compromised environment, and if you do have an accident that weight isn't static and sitting there but can come...
I haven't had any issues with my 2024 GT with them in the 2 winters so far in SE Michigan. One of my offices is a 25 mile drive one way and I've had to drive through several blizzards and ice storms. That "extra clearance" by removing them isn't likely going to be noticed in my opinion, and...
I had to get tires this summer when I picked up a nail in the sidewall on the Friday before July 4. Of course all they had in stock was all season tires and not summer tires. I ended up with the Michelin Pilot Sport all season - and DiscountTire said I had 30 days to try them out.
I hated them...
Set an appointment (dropping it off in the morning) to get the winter wheels and snow tires put on and send the summer wheels and summer tires to storage. Mornings are already in the 40's and upper 30's so time to get the summer tires off.
I had to replace the battery about 2 months after I bought the car. Then this past month started getting that same message. Dealer couldn't find any reason for it, battery took a charge no problem, and so far it is holding again. I typically drive to my office 25 miles one way 3 days a week and...
Wash by hand. It looks worse in the picture that in "real life". The ceramic wasn't coming off as well as I wanted, and had to wipe it again after taking pictures. It looked fine - and then after seeing the pictures I wiped it down again.
Need to clay bar it in the spring for the next ceramic coat.
Because Ford (and all manufacturers) can take care of the issue by routing the vapors to the intake to be burned off and meet air quality standards. Since many people have a difficult time doing minor maintenance, they know that the average owner will never empty the catch can if they installed...
Getting ready for winter (ordered my winter wheels and snow tires to be delivered from storage on Friday) and today put a coat of ceramic on the car. Also put paint protection film on the rear quarters in front of and behind the tires, but I am far from a professional installer - couldn't get it...
I had to replace the windshield twice on my 2019 when a rock hit on the edge and cracked all the way across (first one happened the first week I had the car!) and it didn't affect my rates. And already had to replace the windshield on the 2024 when I washed it and noticed a crack on the...
Yes, I was surprised - but I knew that I was getting a suspension noise, first was a front strut, they replaced that but I could still hear something so back in and they found the rear wheel bearing issue.
I had my car in for some work - suspension noise (turned out to be a bad wheel bearing in driver side rear, replaced under warranty) and battery keeps going low (can't find any reason for that) and while it was there they took care of the recall. Open the hood and I can't see any evidence of the...
I would like to participate and agree to the conditions.
I drive most days into metro Detroit and with the traffic on I96 and some of the "drivers" I come across I have thought video evidence might be good to have if something happens on one of these commutes. And having something to cover for...
Mine has been going into sleep mode despite the fact that I drive it almost every day, and most of those days are a 22 mile drive each way to my office. Yet I am still getting the notification. And I had it on a battery charger over the weekend.
