    I'm about to do something stupid

    My transmission (~15k miles in a year owning a ‘22 Timberline) has been adequate, but like any auto has problems if you bury or float the pedal. Drive modes help with drive style, like sport mode really does get the shifting for a sport drive! Big screen, big misses. It’s hard for me to reach...

    2022 Timberline Stock Tire Issues - Recommendation For New Tire Type?

    My OE Timberline tires popped on the sidewall when I u-turned on gravel…so replaced with KO3s. Wonder if they had crack and bubble issues like yours.

    Changes after going to larger diameter tires

    Only a week since I made the upgrade (295/70R18) and no mods made so far. I’m in a Timberline so already pushing higher power and torque numbers. Overall handling and feel is SO much better, but also what I am used to.

    It is Timberline spec. I’m very happy with the wheels!

    295 vs 305 on stock Timberline

    4wd plus the 7.3 diesel. She rolled around at 4 tons before the 5 kids, 2 dogs, luggage for a week, and full-size spare.

    295 vs 305 on stock Timberline

    Thanks for the support! I had 325s on my excursion and loved how it just handled basically everything in the way, lol! I’ll be posting to the lifted big tires thread after install. I’m hopeful for how the ride will be on highway trips.

    295 vs 305 on stock Timberline

    Bummer not a lot of feedback here, but wanting to close the loop. I have ordered 295/70R18 BFG KO3, will have them installed next week. The extra plys on the 305 was too much of a wildcard for feel preference.

    295 vs 305 on stock Timberline

    I have posted nearly this same thing in the past but with no reply, so I am trying again a little differently (somewhat out of necessity). Got a sidewall flat today and going to have to replace tires. I have not enjoyed the stock, but they have not been terrible. Previously, I had E rated KO2s...

    35" without lifting?!

    Where do you think the trimming would need to come from? Is it at turning lock on the interior liner or elsewhere?

    I just got 4.2.2 last month…not sure why on timing but happy with the updates finally coming.

    35" without lifting?!

    When you say any bigger…do you mean a 305/70R18 would be too far? Asking because this is what I really want to switch to when the stock tread gets low.

    Hah!

    Sunnyvale Ford is decent, just stay away from Harvey. The chip on his shoulder is so big it migrated to his bad haircut to show it off!

    Hah!

    Best of luck if you are servicing at North Bay Ford. They were terrible to work with on our MachE (told my pregnant wife to look up the bus route when they wanted to keep the car overnight ) so we use Watsonville Ford now. They are only a little better, but at least try to work with us when we...

    Dark mode?

    This dome light button kills most of my lights…haven’t checked to see if it does what you are describing though…?

    What to do??

    I went with a Timberline because of the HO 3.5 and the off-road capabilities. This meant only short wheelbase which cut down on space for my (same as you) family of 7 but happens to be an increase in payload. Best upgrade I’ve done so far is a Yakima EXO setup. We got up to the mountains for a...

    305/70R18 Stock Timberline

    Wondering @LazSlate what wheels and specifically offset of said wheels on your setup? Stock being +39mm, anything between that and +34mm should be close to difference between your 305 and @ak49 295 in stock for width on interior well with anything greater than stock clearing me to the outer...

    305/70R18 Stock Timberline

    Has anyone put this size on a stock Timberline? That’s the size I want to land with when I need a new set and am ok to trim a little if necessary. Thanks for any feedback! I’ve searched here a little but only seen 295 width maximum so far.

    I’ve now received 3.5.4 As this rate, I’ll get to 5.X by the time 10.X is released…

    Limited Max SPP steering wheel hand sensor

    Agree with @mdecillis I’ve been using ACC in my MME for nearly 50k miles and barely realize the habits I have formed regarding resistive input.

    OTA snyc updates 2023

    I have been suffering the same! What I am now trying (with no success so far) is to drive more than 30 min, park at home, engage parking brake, lock upon exit, hope for update…all after doing some reset/feedback shakedown I watched on YouTube. Hasn’t worked, but will have it at the dealer again...

    Expedition too big for daily?

    I just recently sold my ‘02 Excursion (for nearly $20k!) to get the ‘22 Timberline. It was solely the fact that a 20 yo vehicle was taking too much of my attention away from my 5 kids. Best part of my Ex was that it parted the seas as described above and towed 10k like nothing was behind her...

    PowerStop, Hawk, Akebono, EBC, Bosch, Centric and even Brembo brake pads. So many options with so little reviews and info!

    I haven’t changed anything on my timberline so far, but I had the below on my 2002 Excursion PSD that I towed often with and they were an amazing combo. Once pads start to fade on the timberline, the links are what I will get. Slotted Frozen Rotors...

    Power Running boards

    This ^ I always find it funny when EVERYONE (including my wife!) believes WD-40 is a lubricant. It helps with squeaky, stuck joints because it cleans out all the junk!

    '22 Timberline Headlight wiring

    Thx for that! Can you get another pic or few out in the open with the DRLs all on?
