    Broke down 300 miles from home.

    Great news! Did you mean cooler lines? That would definitely explain the oil everywhere.

    Wait, What? Ford Credits Veteran Engineers Over AI for J.D. Power Initial Quality Win Despite Leading in Recalls

    Lol...Maybe because initial quality is great. Then the following years of ownership time is eaten up with dealer visits for recalls.

    Eight New SRT Ram Trucks and SUVs in the Pipeline

    An entry level work sells but would a $100K single-cab hot rod truck sell? I don't know. I'd want an extended cab at the minimum myself.

    Eight New SRT Ram Trucks and SUVs in the Pipeline

    I think the quad-cab with the short 5.7' bed will be the closest we'll ever see to a reg cab again. Tim Kuniskis even mentioned it in the video with Leno, "People say they'd buy a reg cab manual, but when we build it, they don't sell."

    I gotta ask a question about Toyota.

    What do you really see happening? I personally don't think it matters. Sure, enthusiasts and what not know about the issues, or those on the fence between Toyota and Ford and researching, but not the average buyer. They'll be fine, just like any of the brands when a fiasco presented itself. Ala...

    XPEL Color Paint Protection Film Protects Your Ride and Changes the Exterior Color! Yeah, Really!

    I think in addition to the front end, behind the wheels along the body is another great place for PPF protection. That is an are prone to rock chips/debris and lots of road tar from construction sites.

    Second Toyota Tundra Engine Recall Postponed Again Because Company Incredibly Still Doesn’t Really Have a Fix After 4 Years

    It does appear that way. If anything, it reduces them from the pedestal they were on and lowers them to the same level as the other brands with similar issues and trying to hide it.

    Gas Prices Are High, Yet Truck Buyers Want V8 Engines Says Ford CEO

    Well yeah. My old V8 gets 12mpg around town and a newer V8 gets 17mpg around my town. A 5mpg increase is quite the savings. And a turbo 6 doesn't increase it much more.

    New 2027 Vehicles Coming With Mandatory Kill Switches? Real or Fake?

    Sadly this has been blowing up on the internet as "The gov't will be able to remotely shut your car off by the end of 2026". And people are freaking out.

    GM Defines “Normal” Oil Consumption for Trucks as Owners Say Huh? 1 Quart/2k Miles

    But you gotta remember, these oil consumption rates we are talking about are not new. They have been around for a decade or more. I believe the first Ford I heard about was a 2000. GM before that.

    GM Defines “Normal” Oil Consumption for Trucks as Owners Say Huh? 1 Quart/2k Miles

    Agreed. That was the specific engine my cousin had when he fought with Ford.

    GM Defines “Normal” Oil Consumption for Trucks as Owners Say Huh? 1 Quart/2k Miles

    I think GM was the first to call miles as low as 2K normal so maybe that's where it came from? I do know my cousin fought with Ford on a new truck over it. He was adamant it was not normal to add a quart between changes, but Ford argued it was. He ended up trading it in and the next truck, same...

    My 2021 AT4

    Yeah, about 5mph @ 60 is noticeable and put you too far above the speed limit if one doesn't remenber. Like when my wife actually got a ticket in my Jeep when I changed tires before changing the speedo gear in the transfer case....lol. The positive side is that your ODO reads less which is good...
