    not having a good towing experience - 23' airsteam/5000lbs 500lb tongue weight

    Something I might have missed in the thred; On a level surface adjust the tow ball mount so that the trailer is slightly higher in the front than the back with load leveling bars installed in their normal position. I tow a 22' toy hauler that is about 3,400# empty, an 3,200# car, tool box...

    New software just dropped

    They are close to useless. I’d still like to know when we’ll finally get a Bluecruise update.

    New software just dropped

    New software was just loaded on our ‘24 Platinum. The most obvious change is configurable gauges are now appear to be sticky. Turbo boost was replaced with transmission temperature and stays over multiple restarts. I haven’t noticed anything else at this point.

    Center Console Organizer To Buy?

    Bought this for our ‘24 Platinum last year. Works great.

    After the last odd (un-numbered) update we received our 3rd update in as many months, 10.1.1. No obvious changes that I can see.

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

    This might help. It’s on an F150, but should be close. He’s outside Chicago, so my plan is to take to him. Brian does a lot of Ford how-to videos and has a good following. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zU4WbXciv1k&pp=ygUmMjAxOSBleHBlZGl0aW9uIHNwYXJrIHBsdWcgcmVwbGFjZW1lbnQ%3D

    How much should I be paying for a full-synthetic oil and filter change in Philadelphia?

    Don’t feel too bad. Our ‘23 Porsche Cayman GTS 4.0 (I know, a ridiculously long model name) is coming up on its 2 year, 20k mi service. One dealer in the Chicago suburbs quoted $1,800 for oil, filer, cabin filter, brake flush, and windshield wipers. The car has a little over 4k miles so the...

    Running tire pressures 2 psi low?

    I’ve been running our ‘24 Platinum with stock tires at the recommended 39 psi cold (adjusting for temperature) for the last year. The ride is a little rough, but it is more truck than car. With the colder weather in Chicago the cold pressures have dropped to 37 cold and we’re noticing a more...

    A half ton of groceries would cost more than the Exp these days. ;-D

    why are there no real replacement Towing mirror's 4th gen ?

    I tow a 22’ enclosed Toy hauler for our race car with a ‘24 Platinum. Roughly 7,500 lbs. The stock mirrors are ok. Just aim them a little further out. The trailer is 8’ wide, so I only miss a little at the back corner of the trailer. I just wish the cameras would work with a wide view (“full”...

    Ok, what the f#$* is this? A couple weeks after downloading 6.14.0 we got this odd update: I have no clue what release this represents.

    Sync 4A Update Poll

    Until 9/12 we were in the same boat, WiFi and Auto Updates configured, for almost 50 weeks. Then, surprise. Didn’t think of an update dance but considered sacrificing a chicken. I assume there is some method to their madness, but I can’t figure it out.
