I figure as a recovering NoVA resident I should offer this first before anyone suggests “just use something else" NoVA traffic is bad. If you live in Texas and think Houston traffic is bad, try living in the DC suburbs. I give it no more than 3 months before you flee in terror. It spans in...

#MeToo. I also used Auto Trader listings, which have a 200 mile max radius from the search zip code and... the pricing data was a bit more accurate.

I don’t think it’s as simple as all that, but my 7 year old Raptor buying experience strongly suggests that they process Leno & influencer orders FIRST, Press pool vehicles, second, Stealership allocation orders 3rd, custom orders 4th. I’ve seen the Gen 2 and Gen 3 Raptor releases roll out...

I get it, I wasn’t making a price equivalency, but rather that the HD is overpriced period, not just overpriced for what you get. I mean, it takes a lot to make a motorcycle with over 1000cc’s to go slower than 4.5 seconds to 60mph, but HD manages to do it- Vrod and Pan America excepted. Lots...

Except the Shelby is quicker and faster than any HD.

done, thank you.

Any updates on the creaking noise? I’ve noticed this on my Dark Horse. Low speed over uneven pavement. Not rough / 4x4 territory, just imperfect. happens: passenger or no passenger. not when cold apparently, first mile was silent each time across all drive modes seems to be passenger side...

Because it’s not a Lincoln. it froze during the drive? weird. I’ve had it spontaneously reboot when I hung up a phone call. The Sync system is not tolerant of you issuing commands before full start up. I forgot this last weekend in my Raptor, had pre-started remotely got in, hit start and...

GT & Shelby means you are responsible for #TwoLessprius ;-)

driver assist was the x-traffic. gotta check on the t/c delete/reenable but I think it’s the same

damn. sorry to see that. Get the stealership appointment now, it will be a bit until you get in. The good news is it’s not a terribly hard repair, just a little time consuming. At least they don’t have to run down a network problem.

I have a bike with carbon fiber wheels. They come with plastic guards - delrin I think, to place against the bead breaker and prevent marring the c/f. That said, it’s a challenge finding someone who’s confident they won’t f* up your wheel. I ask straight away, ‘can you change the tire on my...

I’d have the battery load tested and a Battery Management system (BMS) reset done. That’s oddball behavior. The battery, not you.

I’m not sure about this. I’ve had the misfortune of busting 2x OEM windshields on the Rap (they’re made in China, like c*vid) One of them was a total freakin’ mystery, the 2nd was a SOLID hit on the S. Padre Island causeway bridge. Gorilla glass is supposed to be available for the Rap, but I...

There are usually some precursor indicators that there is low charge. 1) the passenger side intelligent access stops working. stick your hand in the handle and no response. 2) you press start and there is a hollow, tinny do-do-do from the center speaker Those tell you right away if there’s a...

Between 3 motorcycles, 2 Mustangs & a Lightning I’ve got... somewhere north of 200 dyno runs. Every. Single. Time. I perceived a low end improvement it was exactly the opposite - a dip in the torque curve was introduced, resulting in a flat spot where power doesn’t increase or may dip...

Not for nothing, but all major manufacturers gather all manner of telemetry data, and offer it for sale to data brokers, where it’s purchased by insurance companies, who use it to justify raising your rates...

IIRC, when the system detects low battery, whether there is or isn’t low battery ;-) the ‘chimes’, bells, dings, bells and what not will come through the center speaker. IF you were to disconnect in factory, you’d likely have none of them with low battery, right? Now, with a DSP, not sure...

And this is the rub negotiating on “allocation” vehicles. Shady, money grubbing folks will cancel the deal at the drop of a hat. And they will drop the hat. In this case, it was over negotiating the market, but in all reality, he probably couldn’t afford the extra $$$ over MSRP and decided to...

I know exactly what you’re talking about. https://www.chron.com/news/slideshow/fatal-drag-race-in-maryland-26696.php This happened not far from where I grew up. Every Friday night in the summer, sometimes Saturday and just like you said, local LE were frequenters of this event. More than...
