    Best Tire option

    I have the Michelin Defenders 275/60r20 on my Plat and 10k miles on it. While I cannot compare, I am pretty happy so far. All in hot TX heat and NM, sometimes unpaved roads. No off road. I decided for them based on Consumer Report and the general reputation of Michelin to produce top tires...

    2019 Expedition Max Lift and Tires

    wow, they are 61lbs....my 275/60/20 Michelins are 43lbs....plus the truck weight rating will make it a bumpier ride....all for the looks? lol my 275 are 33" and with a +30 offset leave some air...was thinking myself to get a 285 33.5" next time ;-) no lift here

    Why would these wheels be a "bad fit?"

    quite likely the load rating....as our trucks are heavier they need stronger wheels (to be 110% safe)

    OIL PAN DRAIN PLUG

    Did today my Stahlbus mod. The mod is great but oil change is a mess...not the first who witnessed that, but its a huge mess....stahlbus should make it much easier. Also, I added the skid plates of the Raptor and FX4....doesnt make it easier either. A total of 7 screws have to be removed, a...

    I have 20x8.5 with +30 offset....and fender gets already dirty outside, despite that the wheels don't hang out. Just almost flush...personally I would not go with +1 For tires: I have 275/60 and I think its pretty good. Lots of space still...

    Installed new 5 star tuner!

    I have a 5star for a month now, currently 89oct tow installed. ngauge. Datalogging seems disabled, but in the "gauge" mode I can still log a run. Got a csv file and sent to 5star a couple of days ago. Should I expect an answer? For what do I look for in the file? There is a "Knock(deg)" column...

    275/60/20 on stock 2WD

    not the best pics...but I really like the combo, drives smooth and looks imho very nice. AT tires would look cooler, but I do to many highway miles that this makes sense ;-) form follows function. Always....;-) these are the BR Mozambique. The flow form production should make the light...I...

    Oil plug quick release

    Thanks for all the answers. (Luckily, the newer models went back to stell plug and all pan....) Leaving 2oz of oil in? hmmm...interesting and kind of makes sense that it drains a bit less than if one removes the screw....on the other hand a) I might change oil more often cos its easy b) I...

    Ford, Are you Listening? 2018+ Change/Wish List

    Back in Switzerland, where I grew up, I did several car and motorcycle safety courses (learning to control the car in extreme situations, what hell of fun btw...) and they all preached that the tires are the ONE single most important safety "thing" on a car....hence take care of it...

    xlt wheels on platinum

    regarding learning tool: Fords own tool is cheap, e.g. here https://www.amazon.com/Motorcraft-TPMS19-Transmitter/dp/B001FKSNUI/ref=sr_1_14?keywords=tpms%2Blearn%2Bford&qid=1560961452&s=gateway&sr=8-14&th=1&psc=1 Regarding tire sizes: the 20" wheels are "technically" under a hair under 32"...

    Car Hotspot

    thanks all. Ford, I called them, said, AT&T is exclusive (and Bell in CA). So no way. A modem in the USB is not really golden. As, I assume, not using the external antenna on the roof. I can just use my mobile to tether.... (As I will be often in NM, and ATT is especially bad there, there is...

    Ordered 5 star tuner

    yes. Good instructions. Only thing, you won't find an Expedition 2018/19 in the gauge. You have to choose (or at least I did) the F150 2018/19 Ecoboost to read the vehicle

    For the audiophiles...will a better phone DAC with higher resolution give me more bass?

    @Sgt Darkness what you say was told in the 80s when the CD came out: Ear can't hear it and still, there are HUGE differences in DAC sounds (not just the analog side but also on the digital side). The proof is, that the LP was NOT replaced but actually had a revival. Hence also the reaction of...
