    Dye white Stitching red?

    But it would look good on my Rapid Red!

    Trailer Lights

    Hi, Both of my 4 pin and 7 pin trailers with leds worked fine with the ST. Safe travels, Ron

    35/30/35 versus 2nd row captain seats

    Hi, I have the captain's chairs also, as I did not want to pay $500 for the bench seat. Aside from the additional (all beat small) seat, having the bench in the second row would better confine loose items that you place in the back of the ST. The captain's chairs leave about an eight inch space...

    Tailgate - Disabling the kick-to-open-or-close motion feature (full pictures)

    Hi, I never experience this issue before and was wondering why it would only happen to some. I have now experienced it several times in the past week. It has only happened with a trailer attached to the vehicle and with me on the driver's side adjusting the connection. I am trying hard to...

    Electric Brake Controller (Curt Echo)

    Hi Dale, If it worked with one of my vehicles from the onset, I may have made an effort to work with it. Reading up on it as you suggested, led me to believe that I would need to install a power line for the controller which kind of defeated the purpose of a wireless controller. I will go with...

    Electric Brake Controller (Curt Echo)

    Hi, I had the vehicle running and in tow/haul mode. I guess the unit is just not compatible with the ST. I could not get it to work with my Sierra either. It will hopefully go back to Amazon and I will order a couple of wired controllers instead. Thanks, Ron

    Electric Brake Controller (Curt Echo)

    Hi Dale, Thanks for your help. I tried connecting the trailer through the controller and while the trailer lights worked, the unit would not power up. I guess it is going to go back via Amazon and I will order up a couple of wired controllers. Cheers, Ron

    Electric Brake Controller (Curt Echo)

    Hi Dale, That is part of the problem. You need to plug in the controller, connect to the controller via bluetooth and and then plug in the trailer to the controller. How would you check for power once the trailer connector is plugged in? I guess I could see if it is charging the little...

    Electric Brake Controller (Curt Echo)

    Hi, I tried to setup my new mobile brake controller by Curt. I have never had a trailer with electric brakes before and I have three vehicles that I will use to tow the trailer. This controller is movable to any vehicle as it plugs into the trailer 7-way plug and then you plug the trailer...

    Parking Assist Paranoia

    Hi, Yes there is a perpendicular parking option. You have to push the button as you drive by an open spot and the vehicle will, on its own, manoeuvre and reverse into the empty parking spot. I find it parks too close (about 2 feet) to the car you are reversing next too. You use your blinker to...

    Parking Assist Paranoia

    Hi, I own three vehicles and have a large enough parking area that I set up both scenarios to give it a try at home under controlled conditions. I think you will need to park around other cars to give it a test. It worked about half the time in our trials. You need to follow the instructions to...

    Fuel octane?

    Hi, I am not suggesting to leave the discussion completely, but you can just stop engaging the problem child and they will go away and sulk. That will leave everyone time to help folks that will accept reasonable advice. Cheers, Ron

    Fuel octane?

    Hi, I understand. There are a lot of strong personalities present. Have a good one, Ron

    Fuel octane?

    My question to the group: Why does everyone keep engaging with individuals that do not want your advice? They say they want your advice/opinion, but they don't mean it. So just stop arguing with them. Just ignore them. Go on about your business and enjoy your real interests. Cheers.

    Fuel octane?

    Easy answer: 50% 91 octane + 50% 93 octane = 100% 92 octane or 100% fun driving your ST.

    Flashing third brake light

    Hi, I do too, but only if I think the sudden braking is unexpected and I want to make sure the next driver has seen it. Cheers, Ron

    Flashing third brake light

    Good morning, I really like this idea too. I was hoping that we would be able to turn it on with FORScan. The third brake light flashing would be much more visible than a trailer hitch plug. Thanks, Ron

    The FORZDA3 2021 Rapid Red ST "NOT-a-Build" Project

    It is amazing how a second or two in a 24 hour day (86,400 seconds) can cause so much discussion and strife.

    Strut tower brace

    It seems to be a nice group of folks, until someone disagrees with an opinion. Then all hell breaks out. Name calling and bragging comes out and then everything goes quiet.
