    2020 Expedition up in flames

    $400 in 1985 is equivalent to $1,000 today. A $1k Dishwasher only lasting 1-2 years?! My last dishwasher lasted 10 years (Bosch) and was still going when I removed it to renovate the kitchen. My new dishwasher, Asko, was $1000 and has been running 5 days a week for 2.5 years. I know this...

    Negotiating a lease vs. purchase

    Lincoln’s lose 65% in 5 years. Both are great off lease vehicles to buy. Most luxury/expensive vehicles drop like rocks. https://www.businessinsider.com/suvs-with-worst-resale-value-2019-11?amp

    Negotiating a lease vs. purchase

    Couldn’t agree more. Why people spend any amount of time at a dealership outside of simply signing papers and grabbing keys is beyond my comprehension.

    Negotiating a lease vs. purchase

    Depends on how long you own your vehicles. If you own for 2-3 years probably a lease is better.

    2020 Expedition up in flames

    Not that it matters because no vehicle should explode, uncontrolled, into flames. Not a $49K (base) expy or the “average” priced vehicle at $38k.

    Hot Cargo Area with Seats down

    Huh? How does not letting people scroll though all their presets make the majority happy? How does not allowing you to sync front and rear temperature make the majority happy? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Not a bad trick but if you punch in 1-5-0 after the first 5 the horn plays “summer nights”. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Snow driving observations

    Right. my point is that stopping the slide is harder if you’re sliding because of engine breaking (in 4wd or 2wd) and not “brake” braking.

    Snow driving observations

    This is an interesting subject that I’ve been thinking about as I’m on steep mud/dirt and snowy/icy roads almost every weekend so I’m looking at this based on the assumption that 4WD is engaged. If a vehicle starts to slide due to engine breaking (tires moving too slowly for the speed /...

    Hot Cargo Area with Seats down

    Ridiculous. Why ford hobbles your ability to do things the way you want is mind boggling sometimes.

    +1 Rovers integration of knobs into the screens is very very well done. Their software needs an update but their execution and integration is great.

    Consumer reports Expedition is trash?

    Yeah, it’s not really an opinion aggregator though and if it were you should really like it because that’s what Amazon’s reviews are and I think you said you turn to those for information? That’s the rub. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Consumer reports Expedition is trash?

    You’re not a big FoMoCofan? Ok. I stand corrected. In my experience brand loyalists HATE CR. Its not an ad hominem just an observation. Your points aren’t really worth arguing. CR’s polling “issues” would be consistent across brands and not biased towards one brand or another. Again, I believe...

    Consumer reports Expedition is trash?

    CR gathers responses from hundreds and hundreds of owners for each vehicle they test. So, by definition, it’s not ‘single source’. It may not be perfect but if the same method is used across all vehicles then it’s at least likely to be directionally accurate. Certainly better than the one...

    2022 Expy

    Gotta agree. The mustang is even worse. It’s not even jammed into the dash like the ‘22 expy. Who knew there could be even LESS design integration. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Tree sap removal

    Yeah I’ve had to use it once when there was dried on sap and another time when some superglue dripped on the paint. Tried goo gone first but neither budged. You’re right though. Gotta be careful (I used a qtip) but it will work 100%. Just need to carefully apply and the wash off immediately.

    Consumer reports Expedition is trash?

    I didn’t even know that was a real thing. I thought it was a nickname for Motor trend or spending. Looks like a garbage clickbait site. Title says one thing and then 70% of the article is actually heaping praise on the black label lol. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
