Regarding Walmart and what is in stock, it is hit or miss by location. I have ordered items online for local store pickup three times to avoid driving only to find the item is not in stock. Each time the item was supposed to be in stock per the Walmart online inventory. First time, went to...

Gray Organic Biodegradable Sustainable Vanilla Bean, in keeping with Ford's stewards of the environment color designers and marketers.

I had a Du-Ha bin. Came with rifle rack inserts. I say had because I just traded the F150 this week for a 2025 Ranger Lariat. Got too old (me, not the truck) and harder to park when I went into the city. Dang parking lot lines are too close.

Ford did the same with Ranger. I had a 1996 and 2003 Ranger with the extended cab and a 6' box. Not anymore. Longer truck but crew cab only with a 5' box. If you want the old Ranger configuration, Ford makes it: overseas. Ford knows the big $$$ is in the North American market and they can...

I have a 2021 Lariat FX4 Supercab with the 3.5L Ecoboost at just over 26,500 miles. I love it. It looks like a truck with the 6.5FT bed, not some kind of 4-door limousine with a squashed rear end. Unfortunately, my life and needs have changed, so I am going to sell it while it is still worth...

Four+ years. Still OEM blades. Rain and snow. Rain-x. Hand wash only, never go to a carwash due to XPEL PPF. I only use Sprayway window cleaner inside and out. No ammonia to degrade the rubber and I also have XPEL nano ceramic window film inside, thus Sprayway. Check the arms and blade...

There is a YouTube video "Important maintenance for Ford Twin Panel Moonroof." 13 min 18 secs. Might look at it. Other recommendations are to remove the foam strips and clean them after looking at a tech manual for how to remove and replace.

I drive the truck infrequently, changed the AGM battery to a larger capacity when the original 2021 battery croaked in February. I have a battery maintainer. Other than recalls, I have no issues @26,300 miles. I have discovered, however, that medical problems prevent my keeping my beloved...

I have not used Granger but have heard good things. Was wondering what your experience has been and experience of others. I bring Ford's proprietary printout with me to my dealer and used to get invoice pricing or maybe better but not since the pandemic or since Ford sunk $4billion into EV and...

Did you trade in? If so, how did you negotiate that?

Kansas law prohibits direct sales without a franchise, so that works for Ford but how do you negotiate price, when ordering online at MSRP? Do that before hand with the dealer, who then orders it? I do that now. No Tesla dealers in Kansas. You buy your Tesla typically in Missouri or Oklahoma...

Thank you very much. Very informative.

That sounds very reasonable. Appreciate it.

Yep. Went out Nationwide with the exact truck. Did not call every dealer direct, yet. There are still Lariat hybrids out there especially in Missouri.

Worth a look. Wife does not like Toyotas, however. My local Toyota dealer is a known ripoff artist that I won't go near but there is one 35 minutes north who has a very good reputation. Thanks.
