Next time this happens, get a video of it. Since the problem is intermittent, as you can imagine, techs will not be excited about fixing this - neither would I. Every bit of evidence you can provide would help. In addition to the video, if you can, download / install FORSCAN. Check for...

I do the build a bigger garage trick.

I didn’t think it sounded horrible to begin with first of all. I used my phone to play my base evaluation songs for me and it actually did pretty well for a stock system. I’m sure that my sub replacement and wrapping of the enclosure has improved the range represented and provided some...

That’s a fair point, I should have elaborated. You will get better frequency response and the quality of the sound should be better with almost any aftermarket brand. But my point is that there is a lot of rationalization going on proclaiming the mere act of replacing the sub completely...

All swapping the sub does is prepare you for adding an amp to the sub, it makes zero db difference in the cabin. none. Nada. zip. It’s a good first step, but without an amp, it’s going to sound the same or largely the same as there could be different ranges of sound represented, if you’re...

knock on wood... My 2017 Raptor still on the OEM battery 7 years on. I have it tested at service regularly at this point. It took my ’01 Lightning battery a tick over 8 years to crank slowly. The 2nd time it was really slow, but fired up; I diverted to pickup a new one. Bad ones happen...

What’s your actual use case? Not what you tell internet randos, actually how you intend to use it?

We’re probably thinking in different terminology but what tire pressure are you running? Any abnormal wear pattern on the front tires? Lane keep + tram lining can definitely make for a busy driving experience. So that variable is out, keep an eye out for the tram lining. Even interstates...

I believe you’re correct about the carfax, but I _think_ Oasis would show the repair. I got a history from my dealer back in late ’01 or early ’02 and it had some kind of body work done. Well before I bought her and I was the original owner.

Beautiful shot of 2 great looking cars.

Maybe trim your commentary at the end but that should be enough to show the service advisor that yes, there is in fact a problem. Some dealers are sketchy on whether they will take a video as proof that there’s a problem - I’ve yet to hear a good answer on why they wouldn’t. Get that car to...

Welcome to M7G. You will definitely need to schedule with a dealer, so do that first off. When you do, hit up @Ford Motor Company and they will be happy to grease the skids. I know the right side / center stack can be force rebooted, I believe from 2 buttons on the right side of the...

what was ambient temp? You’re in PA; generally close to H-burg so it was likely cold enough to not need ac. My MDH is garaged, and the lowest it’s gotten overnight has been mid-60’s this month, but the garage is about 70-75, so my ac fires up each time.

There’s shipping damage and then there’s real shipping damage. OP’s Mustang looks to be cosmetically affected. I’ve seen pictures of Raptors that were driven off the side of the ramps, or had the cab crushed. Raptors are allocation trucks, like the Dark Horse, so you can’t just roll over to...

IDK... I’ve campaigned lightweight wheels in DC metro for ... probably 8+ years on cars, 4 years on mg. (Ducati) wheels and 8+ years on a pair of carbon fiber wheels on my ZX10r. I’ve smacked quite a few bumps, pavement ripples, pot holes & even hit objects in the road with them and not had...

oops. Mustang + any F/P vehicle = #TwoLessprius

My 2017 Raptor was delivered to the dealer with ~120 miles on the clock. Seeing this, the sales manager was beside himself, he’d just shot me text message pictures of it being rolled off the truck. He calls me in a panic “I’ve got some bad news, the truck has like 120 miles on it ! ! ! Ford...

1) Normal / expected behavior. 2) You may need to recheck your climate settings on the center cluster. If you use auto, it should retain. The ’24 A/C controls are like the Pirate Code: They’re more like guidelines. The AC will automatically come on regardless of settings, even without auto...

#OneLessprius Jayzus! Did you file an environmental impact statement for all that tire shine? ;-) I’m betting you’re going to like it quite a bit.
