    Battery cost from Ford

    Well, hooked my ST up to a battery tender overnight to “charge it up” and did the BMS reset this morning. First light, start stop turns on. Very interesting for sure and maybe that’s what I needed to do all along. We will see how long this holds up.

    Battery cost from Ford

    Yeah I drive maybe 15-20 miles a day on average. Not much. Mine definitely doesn’t get charged enough. I try to throw it on a battery tender once every 2-3 months in hopes it helps maintain it. Which overall it seems to be helping. Just wondering if the bms would “reset” things since I started...

    Battery cost from Ford

    I’m coming up on 3 years with my original battery in my 22. I get the deep sleep notification maybe once or month or so. Mainly just when I leave my dash cam running overnight and it’s monitoring mode. My auto start stop hasn’t worked in over a year. I know my battery is not at its full...

    Fuel octane?

    Here in MD, the jump to 93 is like 60-70 cents more. I wish it were closer to 50 cent difference but I don’t drive a ton fortunately. I’ll be taking a trip to Florida this coming week. Was tempted to flash my FP tune back to stock for 87 use but now that I’ve used 91/93 so much, I hate the...

    Nope. Would like to but not sure I feel comfortable doing it. How about you?

    Safety Recall 22S27 Rear Axle Bolt Fractures

    Eh they couldn’t even do my initial install of it. They referred me to other dealers. I’m sure the technician could do it. It’s probably just the service advisors that I dealt with. Had no idea. I’ll probably put the note on the OBD port and also let the advisor know like I got this tune on...

    Safety Recall 22S27 Rear Axle Bolt Fractures

    Well, scheduled my bolt warranty repair. Discussed with dealer and they said they have done a ton now and slowly phasing out the need to do the recall. He said they will inspect the rear and either just replace the bolt and bushing or whole the subframe if any big concerns. I plan to cover...

    Can we start a campaign to get Ford to make a vertical to horizontal conversion kit?

    I am guessing many people thought they would adjust to it but maybe not after all. Having said that, I fail to see any real benefit of the smaller screen. You lose the view of temp settings, you lose the ability to hop out of carplay/AA very quickly, you lose the ability to keep maps opened...

    Safety Recall 22S27 Rear Axle Bolt Fractures

    I have still been putting this recall off. I should probably get it done but you know, when there's no active issues, hard to justify taking it in.

    Safety Recall 22S27 Rear Axle Bolt Fractures

    As much I want to get mine "fixed", I just don't trust the dealers and techs. Not that I have had any issues with my particular dealer, I just hate to introduce something when all is well otherwise. Torn on what to do cause I wonder if the original bolt fractures, will ford still cover the...

    Ford Performance Tune

    lol I don’t think I have see one person that got this tune that hasn’t been happy. So not sure what you’re talking about, especially it being a “shit show”. You could just acknowledge you were wrong.

    2025 Explorer Teaser Ahead of Tomorrow's Reveal

    Yeah I agree as well. Nothing too fundamentally different. Blue Cruise is nice but not at what they are charging. Otherwise, while the new infotainment system is nice hardware and software wise, it won't change much in how I use my car. Yeah makes sense.

    2025 Explorer Teaser Ahead of Tomorrow's Reveal

    Yeah we should have received sync 4 from the beginning but somehow ford decided otherwise.

    2025 Explorer Teaser Ahead of Tomorrow's Reveal

    It’s not sync 4. It’s an android based OS. I don’t think it’s technically android automotive but I’m not sure. And yes, there are two of them. Android auto where you connect your phone and then a built in system called android automotive that runs natively all the time. Volvo and polestar all...

    Wireless CarPlay

    Gotcha. That's why I never wanted to jump in at $200-300. But at <$100, it's tempting.
