When you did your 1000 mile day - how fast did you drive? What was your MPG?

Looks like a great trip, amazing how a cell phone camera can take professional looking photos too! I have over 27K on my 2025 Lariat EB - and have done a few long trips - this is a much better road trip vehicle than my wifes BMW X3

Say what you will about the 3.5 and 2.7 EcoBoost engines - they had teething problems in the beginning, BUT NOTHING like what Toyota and GM are having with their engines. Bearings, poor design, oil specs that may be too light and on and on ... there are comments about Ford quality and...

I had the 5100s installed with a 1.5" lift in the front. I think they did a 2" setting instead as the truck is really level now ... anyway, I have not noticed any sagging since I had this done two months ago. Ride is comparable to stock - a bit stiffer, but after breaking in a bit I like how...

I did a 1.5" Bilstein 5200 lift on the front from Off Road Warehouse on my '25 Lariat - everything works fine. The tech told me the sensors adjust automatically, that they don't touch a thing - works great as far as I can tell. Maybe your dealer is too gun shy?

Same on my FX4 ...

I recently upgraded my '25 FX4 to Bilstein 5100s ... there was no way I could do this (lack of tools and knowledge). I took it to a shop as it needed springs to be compressed, alignment and additional camber adjustment parts (Raptor spec) to be added to get everything running straight down the...

Where is the AUX battery located?

If it bothers you I would bring it up. My '25 Lariat seats material seems much thinner than previous - dealer told me there was nothing they could do but replace it with the same thing (and he wouldn't do that). Note the Lariat seats are not real leather - they are the made to look vinyl...

Yes, the 2026 F-150 is likely to have a gasoline particulate filter (GPF), especially for direct-injection gasoline engines, as Ford has patented systems for them and they are becoming standard to meet emissions regulations. While specific details are still emerging, the technology is already in...

I think the Filter is a real thing for the F150 in '26. Rangers have had them in Australia for years and it seems Ford was delaying as long as possible for the US market - expect them for GM and Ram gas engines too.

I agree, they are not the best tire - I have had three recent F-150s with them, all needed replacement before 20K miles - and the main reason was tire puncture from something on the road (that Discount tire said could not be repaired). My most recent set went just hit 20K miles, but the outside...

If I was going mid-size I would likely do a Ranger or "maybe" a Colorado. My brother in law has a 2 year old Ranger Tremor w/ 4 cylinder - he has about 50K miles with no troubles. It's too small for me today, but he swears by it ...

The store manager called and told me they will get four tires from the same country of origin ... he didn't offer any pushback ... just that he understood and would want the same on his truck too. Great service!

Hello - I just had four Toyo ATIII tires installed at Discount Tire. The look good, feel right when driving, etc., etc. I was adjusting the tire pressure and noticed something interesting ... One is made in USA, One is made in Japan and Two are made in Serbia ... WTF?? All the specs and sizes...

Nice growth ... it might be time to finally put Lincoln to bed??

What color is a tattoo? Don't they call those tramp stamps? Seriously, Just kidding ... I would probably go with a hue darker or lighter than the paint color.

Yes, they are ugly like an Airstream tire, but they will go 80,000 miles and be pretty to your wallet and peace of mind. Suggest you hit up Hobby Lobby for a glue gun and some bedazzler stuff ...

I had a '21 PB, a '23 3.5 and now a '25 3.5 (all Lariats) - the quality of the '23 is better than the '21 and the '25 is really better than the '23. So I would go for it if that is what you want. For me, no way would I do a PB again - just too many problems and in the shop for long periods of...

I sell lighting (among other things) and the one I won't touch is LED for vehicles. You need to insert a resister - it is not the same for every car/truck and I bet 90% get returned. If you buy one, you need to go with an automotive quality bulb with clear instructions on set up, etc. The...
