Another vote for Motorcraft

I second what BAJA said, I've always found it to help my AT's perform better.

Yes, a nice little chunk which helps to carry house. No, they were aware of the implications and luckily have already signed the Cancellation and loss of earnest deposit.

Thanks for all of the replies and thoughts everyone. Buyer decided to back out, they forfeit their earnest money but I was told they couldn't get it figured out. Oh well, not the right buyer.

Yes, I was just thinking about that. If you have any other creative ideas, let me know please. Thanks for your help🙏

Another complication for this guy is that this is his second home, so the bank is wanting more down.

Incredibly helpful, thank you! I'll pass along, just trying to get this sucker sold!

No I was told into his own account. I believe any deposit over 9,999; the bank has to submit some form of paperwork. All the info I have is second hand which makes things difficult.

Yes, buyers bank needs proof as to where he got the funds. I'll pass along the 401K loan option. Apparently he does have a bank account, but had money "stashed" away; reasons unknown. I wouldn't be too interested in solutions normally, but we've had the house on the market for 9 months and...

310,000, know where you were headed there :)

Hi all, We are selling our house in Iowa and recently went under contract, but have hit a snag... Buyer apparently has a large amount of cash(40K) that he's been saving over the years. Also, he buys/sells cars on the side. He went to deposit the money into his account to fund the down payment...

Well if you do go with it, best of luck! Looks incredibly clean and yes you will definitely have some maintenance items but I still imagine it will be a great vehicle. Just put the vibes out there that it will be a good car, can't worry too much about the things that "might" be.

More features and more power. But I'm with you, the juice isn't worth the squeeze!

Nice! How's she shifting?

Update: The CX-9 is still in the stable and wife and I both still really like it. She's sitting at just shy of 75K miles now. For a while I was racking up a ton of miles on it, but not so much now as my wife works from home and I commute in the Crown Vic. There has been zero repairs since the...

Don't eat meat anymore, but I used to love me some Honeybaked ham. Hot or cold, no discrimination.

Depends on the manufacturer, some seem to be better than others. But I feel like overall they're pretty good. Our CX-9 is T-GDI and I keep the oil change intervals to 4-5,000 with a well-priced synthetic. It's currently at 74K and runs beautifully. Will do either EC or BG EPR soon to give the...

My brothers '07 5.4 uses around a quart per 3500-4,000 miles. I like the suggestion of changing the PCV valve. It also might benefit from some cleaning; maybe HPL EC, MMO or BG EPR. As an aside, I wouldn't go beyond 5k OCI's with this motor; they are fickle to say the least.

I don't blame you on the F-150. I think they're nice trucks, but have heard about a lot of issues with the 10 speeds. I would hope they'd be worked out by now for the 2024 models but I'm not sure. I'm sure it was incredibly frustrating to have an expensive vehicle with constant issues. You're...

Your butt dyno must be more finely tuned than mine! I can't tell a difference going from 20 to 40 myself. Also, mpg remains as it always does, between 22-24mpg on my mostly highway drive.
