Nav&TVToGo used to market several different adapters to do the trick. This was possible because most of the original Nav screens used an analog feed, rather than digital. The latter makes an interface a bit more complicated. Nonetheless I'm not surprised at the ingenuity, but as mentioned, this...

With modern BMS', you might see even lower voltages for short periods, as it checks the batteries SoC and DoC. As for the acceleration difference... I don't know for sure, but reducing the load on the alternator may be one way to squeeze a few pound feet of torque down to the wheels. This is...

Lack of torque? You've got to be kidding! Either the GT or EB will blow away just about any tire you can mount under them! And it doesn't take much more than 1,800 RPM to do so! With identical suspension, the EB has a distinct advantage in tight turns due to the weight difference over the...

One way to look at the difference is to assume certain parts making up the system use 'drivers' which are specific to any given device. Change the device, and a different driver is needed. And I'll guarantee the needed drivers aren't online!

I'd like to see interior photos of the cabin area. One of the reasons the gendarmeries like the bigger sedans and SUVs has more to do with finding space for all of the armament they carry these days. Being a Mobile Amateur Radio maven (www.k0bg.com) interior space is important to my community too.

I've only looked a couple of times. The fuel ratio is strictly based on how hard you push the go pedal. The vacuum reading is about right once the engine is warm. Cold, 10 Hg is average. On deceleration, 20 is closer depending on the altitude, temp., etc. If you're driving an Eco-Boost, what...

Even if you get there, in my opinion it'll still be too dark. I've had the same comment about the dash in my 2019 Ranger. When in manual mode, the gear indicator can't be seen, unless it is the dead black of the night!

My 2024 Eco-Boost was delivered with 283 miles on the OD. It was located at a Ford dealer in Los Cruses, and driven to Roswell. I didn't care, and it sure doesn't matter!

I just don't get it! Someone has a baby failure, or tells a story about his brother's sister-in-law's uncle's 10R80 failure, and suddenly the 10R80 becomes the brunt of misinformation! The 10R80's failure rate isn't any worse than anyone else's modern (traditional) transmission. The same goes...

I use the double lock feature as described in the manual. I think it is page 83? This disables the walk up/wake up feature. I'm in the habit of using the feature when parking to make sure the auto locking feature actually did lock the car. Paranoia perhaps?

It's those darn Russians again!! Actually it is a natural phenomena, as the temperature drops below the dew point. If you're outside at the exact dew point, you can actually feel it on your skin, albeit it evaporates immediately since your skin temperature is higher than the dew point. There is...

Perhaps you weren't aware, that the display changes to Airspeed MPH when you get air over a large speed bump?!

You know, I didn't think about that. Naming the UMF eMustang gives Ford's clientele the impression they're being green, when all they really did was bow to the greenies.

One more comment from me, an Eco-Boost owner. It would seem to me, that Ford would let everyone know what the number mix between the Eco-Boost and GT Mustangs. If one is to believe what a few car mags allude to, the Eco-Boost sales (from a CAFE standpoint) allow the GTs to be made in...

I absolutely agree! In fact, unless you're OCD or anal-retentive about keeping track of the hardware and nitrous level, the end result will be a catastrophic engine failure! Luckily, I never had an engine failure, but all of the rest of the hardware was a disaster in-waiting! NOS (et. al.) warn...

I'm surprised no one mentioned WHY the window retracts! Yes, it is to help insure the sealing (from weather), but it is also to allow the window clearance. There are several instances where the slight unroll didn't work which caused the window to break. Incidentally, when I checked into...

Make sure the with in the overhead is making contact, by switching between its positions. It either off, on (steady) or automatic.

Well, I bet you'll get the same answers I did. Ford doesn't release numbers by model, color, transmission, accessories, whatever, until ≈3 years after the model year ends.

Racing for fun on the weekends covers a lot of events, such as gymkhanas. But if you're into serious solo groups, you'd best have more than pocket change! You can get into drag bracket racing with your daily driver, but even that gets expensive if you blow a tranny or an engine. Heck, even a set...

I've had the same scenario with my Eco-Boost. Brand new if was getting about 25 on the highway (based on the dash reading when delivered with 283 miles), and about 17 in town. Now, in town it is getting nearly 19. I have made a road trip since I got it. Fiction does its thing I suspect.
