IF you or are in a jurisdiction that actually will engage for a stolen vehicle. Many urban and suburban PD's and sheriff's offices will now take a report and list it as a stolen vehicle over the phone and that's it. You might get it back with loJack. Or your local PD may tell you how bad it...

I'm not employed at a stealership so I'm not able to comment on it directly, but I did raise the issue with my service dept. and they were happy to schedule the update if needed... So IDK, but they seem willing to help getting the update done. ETA: I do not have failing updates, but I do have...

Hopefully Ford has found a better way, but I bought a beater '91 or '92... Exploder Eddie Bauer with about 170k on the clock when I bought it. It read 70k but it didn't have a 6 digit odometer and it definitely rode like it had that many miles, maybe more. Among the many, many adventures I had...

I mean... what life choices led you to Canada, Eh?! ;-) There's an ongoing thread about OTA updates and low battery charge state preventing the updates from taking place. I'd take a look at that thread, possibly get a look at the battery charge state and check in with the stealership service...

You've obviously never piloted a tuned super bike. All the major liter bikes are capable of 9 second quarter miles with a rider of moderate skill. You don't even need a new one, 10-15 year old liter bikes are 9 second capable and can be had for $10k-ish. I agree the plaid is crazy fast and...

Very nice!

That is one heck of a sentence :cool: I have learned 2 topical lessons related to this subject. 1) be happy they're recalling before you take delivery. I went in for service on my Ducati 1198s once only to be grounded, on the spot. "There's a recall on your bike, we have to check the fuel...

I have 2 in my Raptor. One front seat bracket mount, which is completely unobtrusive. 2nd is an Element in one of the seat pockets. I -almost- got to use the seat mounted one to put out a range fire, but another guy got to a skid steer almost as quickly as I got there and the R/O held me...

What I understand from several of the techs I’ve interacted with concerning the Raptor ecoboost is that statistically, the engines with early failures all tended to use the oil life monitor or the ‘non severe use’ maintenance schedule, which is a 10,000 mile interval. Ditto the 9.75” rear...

Many thanks! I can say that by the time my Trofeos were slipping and sliding, at no point would they hold pebbles, rocks, etc. I did get caught in the rain before the 2k mark and just kept my inputs smooth and since it was Texas, the rain was gone in about 5 minutes :-/ based on what you...

I understood the issue, my point is that if you are, say for example blissfully ignorant of the current charge state because you’ve never had a problem, and you rock several short trips over the course of weeks then you were to say go on a longer trip, but not long enough to fully charge and...

So, if the car is requiring a charger at less than 1.5 years old, there’s a problem and the problem is not needing a maintenance charger. There’s a parasitic drain somewhere and it needs to be found or you’re going to end up stranded somewhere needing a jump. My MDH gets driven a few times a...

Holy F***. What is your definition of “once they’re warmed up”? I ask because I couldn’t go hard at all on my Trofeos once I hit about 2500 miles on the tires. For context, I bought in July, in Texas. The ride home was over 100F and the tires went through summer to late September ( so still...

No doubt it’s beautiful but I can’t imagine cleaning a car more than driving it.

I don’t know how you have over 6k miles on Trofeos and haven’t ended up on YouTube I guarantee you that they have been heat cycled far beyond optimum and the stick will be worse than narrow, hard compound snow tires. Look, the Trofeos are really sticky For about 3k km But after that, you...

It’s addictive, AMIRITE? I suggest start setting aside money now for consumables; fluids, tires, brakes etc. I had a 25 year hiatus between my last track day and track attack. Been riding sport bikes the whole time. I did credibly well at track attack. Do the 2 day option. You’ll thank me.

THIS is why, like Jeremy Clarkson, AI is most often wrong. AI uses the internet as a source of information. Your search only turns up what the interface WANTS you to see, not necessarily scholarly screeds related to the question you asked. The programming decides what to present.

Patiently waiting for @robvas to point out the PS4S are not racing/track tires ….

Clarkson was right about exactly one thing: The Toyota prius has no redeeming qualities.
