Hickory nuts. Should have seen the look on my wife’s face when she ran over and crushed one for the first time. Squirrels get fed up trying to break in and leave them all over the concrete.

Have you ever been out on errands with the wife riding shotgun and hear the dreaded: “Honey, can we stop at H-E-B?" ( or insert grocery store of choice here; the all pale in comparison, but you do you ) I can’t stand shopping with my wife. It’s like human pinball with no organizational skill...

I don’t think anything I tried wrote to BCM. What are you trying to do?

it’s not just them... When I was still living in VA, I took the wife out to wine country. Somewhere close to Middleburg I stopped for gas in my shiny new ’17 Raptor. woman in a s00b pulls in behind me and while I’m filling up chides me for hogging the entire lane. To which I reply: “This...

#OneLessprius at 33, and around 50-52F I left for the gym in the morning and the psi went steadily down to about 30 from my garage, starting about 3 minutes in, lasting the 15 minutes for the ride. :-) I wouldn’t push them period. In fact, were I you I’d have them swapped for the pilot...

I have a pedal commander for my Raptor, but for a while it’s been off. It does help; there’s no real “normal” drive mode on a ’17-’18 Raptor, it’s actually the F150 “eco” mode. shifts are lazy and slow, 10th gear by 42mph and above 48mph, it won’t downshift out of 10th without 100% throttle...

We don’t have much control over how much the cost is in European countries, but, as you likely well know by now the current batch of - I’ll call them ‘constitutional, socialist democracies’ ; essentially the non dictatorships are starting to run out of other people’s money. I’d tend to agree...

THE best mod reason, period. 🍻

At least in Texas the majority seem to try and go the speed limit or reasonably above it. There are exceptions, but it’s at least a bit more reasonable than the vastly overcrowded US east coast. well... last time I was on an a-bahn was ’11? or so. I was a bit surprised by the number of...

Does the fob trunk button function while the engine is on? lock and unlock don't

IMO, 500,000 caravaners can’t be that wrong, can they? I’d follow the European tradition of connecting a trailer that is WAY too big for the towing vehicle, and set out on the a-bahn! But, don’t sell the Alps or Dolomite passes short. Riders and drivers secretly love caravaners and tiny Fiat...

Congrats & #OneLessprius how did you pick her up? Dead lift? Leg press? Did you work up to it by lifting econoboxes first? ;-)

True. Monster bill is different for different people. There’s a youtube video floating around entitled something along the lines of ‘$5,000 for a new tail light’ Not a joke. F Series BLIS module is embedded in the tail light and if they crack and get water intrusion it causes a short, which...

Thanks for providing this insight, I think this will help folks decide on whether or not to get the warranty and some insights on which option if they decide. Info from that side of the counter is super helpful ! 🍻

<raises hand> Why? Picture you see show pristine air filters and clean plexiglass. How long do you think it stays that way? They will be dirty, dusty, full of debris in hours. Then you just manufactured another upkeep item.

Until someone says “stress cracks! NO WARRANTY FOR YOU!” Whether there is impact damage or not. :-/ ( It’s not just the Mustangs, dealers love to do this in Raptor world too. Some pretty obviously have not been impacted ). I have one aftermarket warranty experience with one offered by...

Sharp! #SameNumberOfprius if you trade a Mustang on another Mustang, you’re not reducing the pool of prius’s. ;-)

It depends. If you’re going to thoroughly compromise the warranty with mods, don’t waste your money. But, if you’re commuting and need to keep close to stock or just want to keep it that way, the Ford ESP can save you money if something unfortunate happens. I got one on my ’17 Rap that runs...

Unless you have Pirelli Trofeos with >1500 miles on them, you’ll be fine. Respect it and gradually get used to it. This ain’t our previous generation’s Mustang, it’s orders of magnitude superior to the s197 & Fox body ( the v8 Fairmont ). This thing has solid traction and stability control...
