    DW Bothered By Flashing Light

    I appreciate the information. I'll pass it along. No worries about the battery. She only takes it to her hair dresser on Friday, then to the bank and home. Total miles driven: 6. So I put the battery tender on it frequently. She drove professionally for almost 30 years, so six miles a week...

    DW Bothered By Flashing Light

    My wife loves her 2013 King Ranch, and I understand why. But skipping the small talk, there is what appears to be the image of a padlock flashing quickly every few seconds when the car is shut down. The page in the owners manual showing symbols tells me it's indicating something regarding the...

    Turn off lane center

    I went from a 2015 Yukon Denali xl which had pretty intuitive controls to a Lincoln Corsair. I had finally figured out how to operate the windshield wipers and washers when I foolishly bought a Buick Envision Avenire. I'm too old to give a rat's tail part, so just stay out of my way! BTW, former...

    Is this a valid concern/pet peeve?

    It's people who slam the doors closed like they were in a 1941 Chevy!

    Auto start/stop eliminator.

    Many years ago I read that everything automobile had $13000 worth of environmental. add-ons. that was years ago, and I can't imagine what that number would be today. Just so much government interference in our lives everywhere we turn.

    That photo by the Ford Expedition Forum heading,

    All true. Unfortunately she sees my car with its battery problems and headlights and running lights that turn on spontaneously. Electrical gremlins are tough to conquer.

    That photo by the Ford Expedition Forum heading,

    That photo by the Ford Expedition Forum heading, it's basically my DW's 2013 King Ranch. I've been trying to get her to buy a new or nearly new car. But she sees me putting a $300 battery in my little Lincoln every few months and having to trade it while it's only got 26,000 miles on it. And...

    Just rebuilt my 10R80 transmission and having issues

    Recently saw a video on why replacing rather than rebuilding transmissions is preferable. And it was exactly because of the problem you face. You do the work but if you miss one step or something isn't exactly as it should be, you have to do it all over again.

    Which start stop eliminator is best? Any silent codes thrown?

    Put a 4D Tech on my Lincoln in September. Haven't checked for codes but on startup I get a message to the effect that stop/start is disabled.

    I've been really disappointed in my 2019

    DW's 2013 King Ranch had nearly 50k by 2016. Then we retired to a small town. It just turned 56k last week. Perfect condition. Both of us are leery of replacing it. My 2020 Lincoln Corsair eats a $300 battery every couple of months this year. Junk. And only 26k.

    Sudden battery death?

    DW's '13 King Ranch with every conceivable option (no failures) is on its third battery. OTOH, my 2020 Lincoln Corsair is on its fourth battery. The others all died of a mysterious cardiac arrest that occurred overnight without warning. Dead. Capit. Zero response to shocking. No voltage. Gotta...

    NHTSA Important Recall Info That MAY Affect Your Vehicle

    FMC sent a label to put over another label maybe a year ago. I came across it days ago and stuck it on. Seriously, this is exactly why America needs DOGE. We pay government "workers" to come up with this crappola.

    Selling an Immaculate 1998 Ford Expedition

    I have a similar question but won't hijack your post.

    Said good bye to a family friend. 2011 XLT

    Kent our daughters in big Olds station wagon, another in a Mercury tank and the youngest got a 97 Expedition. Then they all turned around and bought: a Miata, something like a 300Z, and a Vette. All survived.

    How do you guys change the rear spark plugs on a 2019 Ford Expedition?

    Ah yes. The juice behind the $400 tuneup. That is, if you don't break a plug!
