  1. Where did you buy your extended Ford warranty?

    I don't know how direct of a comparison this might be since the duration and miles covered are different, but I got a 4yr/150k premium plan from Granger for $1,670. So Granger is definitely worth looking into...
  2. Where did you buy your extended Ford warranty?

    I bought mine from Granger, and showed the quote to the finance manager at my dealer to see if she could beat it, she said they couldn't come close to it (but didn't mention how close). In the past I've also bought 3-4 from Flood Ford for other cars, and on a couple of those got a prorated...
  3. Important Update: Ford EV Roadmap & Future of F-150 Lightning (EREV Next Gen Model) - ⛔️ ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS

    I also had a Volt, and even though I drove over 100 miles per day I was able to charge at work and the only time the ICE (aka generator, I guess) came on was during the engine mx mode every 6 weeks, or fuel mx mode every year. Now I have the XLT ER and still drive a lot, 73k miles in 18 months...
  4. Important Update: Ford EV Roadmap & Future of F-150 Lightning (EREV Next Gen Model) - ⛔️ ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS

    Funny you mention that, I was thinking the same thing and was on their site a couple hours ago signing up for email updates. Their pickup model is said to offer (at least as written now) either a BEV or en EREV... and I don't want no EREV, give me more battery and less components.
  5. I Found An Extra Nut

    Well I'm the landscaper, but I do have a riding mower with HST, I had it in the shop this summer as the front wheel fell off and had to get wheel bearing replaced and they also replaced the deck belt, but didn't do anything with the HST to my knowledge. But the mower has run for 8 seasons so...
  6. I Found An Extra Nut

    Yeah that's a mystery as I live on a gravel road in a rural area with only two houses further down the road than mine before it dead-ends, and neither of those owners are doing any work on their houses to my knowledge. We did have someone come by in September for annual checkup of the water...
  7. I Found An Extra Nut

    Thanks all! I knew I'd seen something like that in the past, just couldn't remember where. Haven't had any plumbing work done at all lately, but will walk around and double-check the valves behind the toilets and under the sinks.
  8. I Found An Extra Nut

    And no it's not a personal problem! Last night my wife's friend was visiting and said she found the below item sitting in the middle of my driveway, and I'm trying to figure out the origin. Possible sources: 1 - My F150 Lightning, which had the tires replaced two days prior, but I can't...
  9. Tire life

    Today I finally replaced my OEM Goodyear Territory HT, got 72k out of them (got free rotations at Discount Tire every 10k) and could have gotten a little more but with winter here it's the right time to replace. I went with the Michelin Defender LTX ($318 each at DT) as I had Michelin Defenders...
  10. 12V battery replacement

    This is the internet so there's never a consensus on anything... but when I replace mine I'm going to get this one: https://shop.advanceautoparts.com/p/diehard-ev-hybrid-electric-battery-h3-group-size-420-cca-525-ca-60-min-reserve-capacity-h3-xev/50001096-P
  11. 100,000 miles in 27 months.

    I think I've found my twin, you just started a year ahead of me. 100k / 27 months = 3.7k/month... I'm at 58k / 15 months = 3.8k/month so we could be twins. I've just a got a long commute, good thing I have 10-hr days so only commute 4 days per week. My OEM tires (Goodyear Wrangler) still have...
  12. Loss of brake boost -Issue Date 2025-08-13 Campaign 25S77/25V488

    I checked for my 2023, wasn't included... appears to only apply to 2025 models and fix will be via OTA update per below link: https://fordauthority.com/2025/08/2025-ford-pickups-suvs-recalled-over-power-brake-assist-loss/
  13. CSP-25B09 Replace Floor Console GSM

    Hey look at the bright side, if you kept talking that service manager might have thrown in a free oil change. I have the rotary shifter now and definitely don't want to swap back, seen too many comments here from owners who had issues with the replacements too. On the other hand, the number...
  14. 12V battery replacement

    I've only had one trip where I was gone for 10 days but have another coming up. On the first trip (no idea if it helped but things were fine when I returned), I had the truck plugged in and set the charge level to about 60%, then every couple days I'd go into the app and increase the charge...
  15. Stick to Rotary Shift Knob Conversion w/ 3D Printed Rotary Shifter Holder

    I've had that happen a couple times, but then again also had it happen now and then 40 years ago when 90% of the shifters were on the steering column, so it's not common but does happen.
  16. Stick to Rotary Shift Knob Conversion w/ 3D Printed Rotary Shifter Holder

    I have one with round cup holder and found the below 2-pack for $4, used the black one (wife was happy to have the green one in kitchen for opening jars) and cut the diameter down about 1/4" at at time until it fit nice and snugly. Now the screw head (mine has one of the screws there) is...
  17. CSP-25B09 Replace Floor Console GSM

    ...and slightly different than the above, if someone wants my OEM shifter that was launching codes daily and doing the "ducka ducka" noise for curiosity/troubleshooting, just send me a PM as it's sitting in a box in my basement and I am never putting it back in my truck and I don't advise others...
  18. CSP-25B09 Replace Floor Console GSM

    On my 2023, I never stowed the shifter a single time, and the powertrain errors started popping up at 43k miles, no idea why but seeing all of the posts on this forum and reddit clued me in as to what was going on.
  19. CSP-25B09 Replace Floor Console GSM

    There certainly are (seems more are reported on reddit than here), my 2023 was affected despite not being subject to this CSP and my never having folded the shifter down ever. I'll take the rotary shifter any day of the week, so glad I swapped mine out.
  20. Stick to Rotary Shift Knob Conversion w/ 3D Printed Rotary Shifter Holder

    I'm not giving up the rotary shifter, have seen several posts here and on reddit from owners who have reported issues with second or even third shifters, and remember there was a QA hold on that part for a few weeks wasn't there? No thanks, my rotary shifter is working fine so not inviting...
