Give it about 30 seconds to a minute. You need time for the oil pressure to come up and for the oil to get sprayed around the engine. You can use the time to check your seat belt, adjust the climate control and entertainment.

There is a camera that dims the headlight and reads speed limit signs for the adaptive cruse control. Too bad it can't be used record traffic activity.

I used to hate the guy that was probably our best sales man. He would talk with the customer and when the customer started talking about the specifications and abilities of the unit, the call would get passed to me. I would end up selling the unit but he would get the commission. Of corse what...

It will be interesting to see if that value changes once your done with break-in. Ford stated a max speed of 168 miles per hour so maybe your being limited during break-in.

I used to be pretty much cash based however things started costing so much that I was burning through the $300 I like to carry with me pretty quick. I now use my card for routine purchases like food, gas, car repairs and internet purchases. Then at the end of the month I pay it off in full. That...

That sounds like the differential or CV joints. They might be difficult to inspect because of the rubber boots that protect them.

It's been well known for a long time that electronics have infant mortality. That means new parts are most likely to fail in the first 48 hours. After that, the longer they don't fail, the more likely they will last much longer. It could be a semiconductor that should turn the power off isn't...

That happened on another thread not too long ago. Your car battery is getting low and you either need an extended drive or put a battery charger on it. If you don't have many miles on it, this could be because it sat for a while before it was delivered to you. If you're using it regularly, you...

I did a lot of product support so I am an expert at finding a few facts in a sea of mud.

Normally that shouldn't be a problem because solid state electronics are either designed to run over a wide range of voltages or they have some type of regulated power supply to condition the voltage. That said, getting the last 20% of the power in the battery is a slow process. During that part...

Probably the sales person was a kid who never drove a manual and missed the word manual. He thought what a strange question, all cars come with transmissions.

Should be page 380 in the first printing of the manual. If you don't want to pay for a rear axle rebuild, you should follow the specifications for fluid replacement. If you have the 5.0, it takes a lot of abuse and manufactures are pretty careful about selecting lubricants that will go the distance.

I just assume it takes at least 1000 miles for break in however I will not be using much over 2000 rpms until I am comfortable with the amount of power than engine can generate. That takes a while to get properly programmed into your brain so you respond to...

5' 14" barefoot. I stopped wearing heels year ago when the world went casual as I developed software in warehouse conditions. Wasn't much point any longer dressing up in expensive clothes when they were getting torn by the sharp corners on the equipment.

And I am the one who had to pay the GAS GUZZLER TAX of $1,300!!! Reminders me of a story I heard years ago. One of the European exotic car manufacture owners, I think it was Ferrari had a wife that kept getting speeding tickets. He finally figure out that she though the gas peddle only had two...

I ripped all my CDs to my computers and iPhone. You might be able to us a USB cd/dvd play to play them on the sound system but I am not sure about that one. As I use Apple hardware I am not sure how you rip CDs on a IBM computer but I know there is a way.

They might be power coated because the dirt and brake fluid would be hard on paint. You could try calling the manufacture and see if they can help you.

That's horrible. My V8 mustang GT gets 20-22 around town I am driving a Hemi pickup with a good deal of freeway driving and it's getting 20 miles per gallon. I saw something that indicated the EcoBoost required 93 octane to get good milage and 87 results in really bad milage. I am easy on the...

It's not original as I heard it many years ago. I think it was attributed to Susan Anton however she is only 5' 11" so maybe it was when she was wearing heels. I have had doctors write it in their charts but in the mind set of Roger Rabbit I do it for the giggle. Eddie Valiant: [Roger managed...
