Then Diesels got turbos because heavy trucks and machinery aren’t performance vehicles and they turn too slowly to make belt or chain-driven superchargers viable.

“I tried for years to find that track in our and our family’s houses, but no dice. I’ll look again on Thanksgiving.”

I prefer srm -s as it’s much faster, it isn’t ultimate tin foil hat safe, but good enough to prevent most recovery methods.

I imagine airports baggage handlers must run a similar scam.

Its called a zipcode and it makes the whole city/state thing pretty damn easy to figure out if the carrier is too dumb to do their job and comprehend two-letter state abbreviations, like they do all day long.

Nope, in most cases they will “assess” the value of the parcel if it wasn’t lost and you will only get the “market value” of it, if you can even get a claim out of them.

I had a similar experience with UPS Freight. I purchased a Revolver bumper from Rogue Racing back in late June for my Raptor, only took a couple of weeks to get it to me in Cincinnati. When the box arrived on the dock at work, it was pretty tore up on one end and completely open and re-taped at the top. I couldn’t…

This exact same thing happened to me at work, and we had to eat the loss on the software and artwork that was loaded on that Mac as well.

I’ve actually been in a similar situation with a damaged PC that had really expensive software and media loaded onto it, they only agreed to reimburse us for the “value” of the computer. You’re lucky if you can even get that out of them, so if you over-insure you’re wasting money, they will screw you out of it any way…

Buy the fluids and filters for future maintenance and save them for when its out of warranty.

^ THIS ^ and the points system is so heavily abused by people “making map contributions” that its beyond pointless (no pun intended) anyways. They’ve never fixed that either.

Pfft, you’ve never lived until you had to manage a SCSI bus with multiple device addresses, LUNs, active vs passive terminators, LVD vs HVD vs Single Ended, etc. instead of hard drives having 3 or 4 different jumper positions, a typical SCSI drive had dozens in multiple locations. Enterprise grade stuff usually…

Makes sense, vacuum = pumping losses working against the throttle body plate. Running small boost or ideally at 0 PSI would be most efficient.

It’s called “Walkie Talkie”

Not mine though; I have a base Raptor with 1st Gen SYNC, no MFT and no more updates.

Here’s a weird one, the latest Ford SYNC update for MFT in the Raptor displays a “Lincoln Presidential” splash animation when it starts up instead of the SVT Raptor one: https://www.facebook.com/groups/fordrap…

The damn thing was great when it didn’t require attention, handled decently for its size, had gobs of torque and easily got 28MPG hwy. The LT1 stuffed in that chassis though, NOT fun to work on, F’ing Optispark distributor...

Not to mention that the SYNC system does not host controls for anything beyond the entertainment and nav, it merely taps into the CAN bus to execute commands for climate controls and door locks. Unplug the fuse for the SYNC system and witness everything with manual controls work just fine without it.

I currently own and have owned lots of Fords and VW’s, I’ve had several issues between the two brands, but almost none of them have been of the electrical sort. Actually, a ‘94 Z28 that an ex girlfriend had was hands down the most unreliable car I ever had the misfortune of taking care of, it had LOTS of electrical…

WTF RTFM FOOLS
