I cannot quite remember My parents taught 5 of 6 kids to drive that car. Some were better than others but I think it was 3-5 some where in there for 178,000 miles.

Yah idk how it changed to intake stupid auto correct. But he still has it at my aunt and uncles house near campus. He’s going to tow it with him to Texas and rebuild/replace some stuff. He starts pilot training a year from now but graduates in May so he has a lot of time on his hands. The transmission needs a lot done…

Auto correct error sorry to disappoint

Pretty important I must keep getting lost on my way to the mall. It’s so frustrating that I need to use my locking transfer case and rear locker for hours on end Only to return home later having never found a place that sells things I could find for easier online for less money. But hey not all of us are capable of…

I ended up getting a 2013 Platinum F150 used just to keep the miles down on the Raptor and save its millage (153,000) for off road adventures. Adding up what I’ve paid to have 2 F150s its cost less than how much a 17 or newer raptor with the same options as my 2010 would cost. KBB says its worth 16-20k but I have yet…

Um no they don’t have 4x4 there is a difference between 4x4 and AWD . the Cross overs with 4x4 are more expensive and have comparable fuel economy such as Land Rovers and the Jeep Grand Cherokee, the rest used limited slip center diffs, multi-plateclutch packs or viscous couplings to move the power around (All-wheel…

My dad bought a SHO new in 1992 (it is a 93) it was his daily driver from until 2001 when he got an E46 M3 at which point my mom drove it daily instead of the suburban until 2004 when the M3 was sold and my dad went back to the SHO so my mom could get a Jetta TDI. My dad would DD the SHO until Fall of 2010 when he…

Most crossovers don’t come with 4x4 the ones that do cost as much if not more than pickup trucks and don’t get any better fuel economy.

You should see what happened to the Raptor out the door I was $37.5k a 17 or 18 would cost me $75-80k easily in 8 years that’s crazy.

They typically have full control, check lists and Radio calls to make. The auto pilot is mainly used like cruise control to save on fuel costs. Some newer airliners have auto land features. I know Southwest (my dad’s been a pilot for them for 28 years) is to cheap to pay for the automation and figured if they are…

And half of those people were not wearing seatbelts. We could cut it in half by requiring safety inspections and automatic seatbelts.

I’m paying $660 a year for my 2010 Ford Raptor full coverage $500 deductible $300 comp. The 2013 f150 platinum is $1200 a year for the same coverage. It makes no sense.

The problem with that is if the price of a vehicle goes up to much then people will stay with older vehicles longer. For instance my 2010 Ford Raptor cost me 37.5 out the door. A 2018 with the same features stickers for 65k factor in Tax title and registration etc. the cost of the truck has doubled. In the mean time…

I drive roads in the area all the time at night there are are street lights in the area as well the human eye can see a greater distance at night than the dash cam can. You would have breaked further out then swerved. The car didn’t do that. This is a situation I encounter nearly every night commuting to work. The…

Yes and the road the accident occurred on has street lights

I think it’s the resolution of the video camera that’s bad I commute through the Phoenix metro area at night (head to work at 930pm) and I have in one section people who wear black jaywalk all the time. You can see them with your eyes but the dash cam will not pick them up until they are closer. Try taking a video at…

Pickup is the answer. Nasty stuff in the bed if it leaks there’s a hose for that.

I used to do it in the Raptor but not anymore. Putting a more aggressive and a rise in speed limits Resulted in lower mpgs.

I feel you right now I have 2 F150s crowding my apartment complex parking lot.What to buy next.

They will need to agree upon a v2v system then install it on all new cars some will need a few years until their next design cycle to integrate the transponders and recovers required. So 5-10 years after the makers agree on v2v frequency. Then 15-20 years for fleet turn over. I’m thinking over 30 years before V2V is…
