Hey everybody! I'm looking into getting a 2013-2014 Ford SVT Raptor. Probably will be around 100-120,000 miles will be my target area. My life situation has changed and work situation. Wife and I have been kicking around getting a truck and I have always wanted to get Raptor. I'm looking at...

I’ve got a 2018 Ecosport 2.0L with a little over 60,000 miles. Bought it used at 60,000. I’m going to be doing an ATF exchange and brake flush. But I wanted to change out the transfer case fluid as well, but I can’t find any information on what type of fluid or even where the drain and fill...

Just traded in the wife's old Escape on a Ecosport. Looking for any advice on maintenance schedule or items to look out for. Here's the details: 2018 Ford Ecosport SES 2.0L - 4WD 60,000 miles Has new tires and brakes, and fresh oil change Will use 5W-20 and motorcraft filter every 5,000 miles...

So we just adopted a new dog a little over a month ago. I had to put my 16 year old mix to sleep due to bladder cancer. I always used K9 Advantix II for her whole life and then the generic version of it for the last 2 years, Advectra 3. They always worked fantastic and never had any problems...

Any Mint Mobile users? How would you rate your experience with them? I am currently on Visible Mobile with an iPhone XS and my wife has an iPhone XR, both unlocked from factory from Apple, for $25 a line. Before Verizon was king in my area, so that's who I've always had, but I've been hearing...

Bought a 2012 Ford Escape for the wife. Really great shape. Been doing some general maintenance on it, no problems so far. Went to pump out the old fluid in the transfer case, but none of my tubing for the pumps was small enough/flexible enough to fit down into the transfer case. The bolt had...

I bought a CX-5, coming up on the first 5000 mile service, the dealer is giving me the first service for free. I figured I'd do that and they would just use whatever bulk oil they have. But after that, I believe they charge $80 for the service, if they are just giving me whatever bulk oil they...

I'm looking into a 2018 Mazda CX-5. Really like them. Drove a few. Dealer has one coming in, the model, color, packages and add-ons, everything I want. Only thing is it has the Mazda Mobile Start for the remote starter. I would rather have a fob for that. Any one here with actual experience of...

Really liking this vehicle, it’s now in my list of vehicles to consider. Any owners here can let me know what you like and not like? I’ve watched quite a few video reviews on YouTube. I’m considering the EX model with the advanced technology package.

So I got my elderly friend a new Galaxy Note 3, its the Verizon model. I had it on Pageplus Cellular for 2 months everything worked great, and then I switched him over to Red Pocket Mobile. Calls and texts work great but the phone will not show any mobile network (1X, 3G, or 4GLTE) at the top...

So I'm trying to decide what to do. I have a 2014 F-150, bought it kind of on the spur of the moment, as I really don't need a truck, I just really like them. I can probably count on both hands how many times I have used it to its actual capabilities. First, I was thinking about getting a...

So I finally found out why I have had a vibration and shutter in my truck, took it to a different Ford dealer and they said it had a random misfire and they said to change the plugs out. They wanted $244 to do the change, I said no and that I would do it myself. Looks like there is plenty of...

I've been thinking about downgrading to a flip phone. I have an iPhone 6 Plus right now and I only pay $22.50 a month. But I barely use what I have now. If I downgrade to a flip phone I can go down to $60 card that gives me $80 in cash and then texts and minutes get deducted at a penny and a...

So my little brother got his first car. Its a 2001 Ford Explorer Sport with 143,000 miles on it. Inside and out is pretty nice. I don't think maintenance wise it was very taken care of. So far we did: Oil Change: Harvest King (Rural King) 5W-30 with a Motorcraft FL-820S Filter - Oil was...

I just bought a 2014 F-150 with the 6.5 foot bed. It came with a roll up tonneau cover and a factory drop in plastic liner. I don't like the liner and also have been reading about bed rusting problems. I am going to get the bed sprayed with Line X. My question is should I get the standard or...

So I limited oil down to either: 5W-20 Pennzoil Platinum PurePlus 5W-20 M1 5W-20 EP Oil Filter: Bosch D3323 D+ Mobil 1 M1-110 EP Purolator PSL14610 Synthetic Someone on the Ridgeline Owners Forum recommended this filter, but I have never heard of it: MAHLE Original OC 707 Is it any good? So...

I'm really digging the new Fit design. Hated it when I seen it at the auto show, but now that I've been looking at it on the Honda site it's really starting to grow on me. Those of you with Fits how do they do in the winter time and in the rain? Do you run snow tires in the winter? I live in...

My friend has a 2008 Toyota Rav4 4cyl 4WD. I've been taking care of the oil for her. Using Valvoline Maxlife 5W-20 and Toyota oil filters now. She's almost at 100,000, and I just found out after I inquired that she hasn't had the ATF, transfer case, brakes or the rear diff ever changed. I think...

I have had this Mobil1 M1-110 in my stash for about 2 years or so. Its been stored in my house since I got it at Advance. I can't remember if I looked at it when I got it and it looked like this or not. But I figured I would post some pics on here and see if it was normal or not. It kind of...

So I went to do the oil change on my mothers 2012 CR-V and seen that it had the Rear Diff code up on the MM system as well. I only had 1 quart of the Honda Dual Pump II fluid, left from my previous owned CR-V, so I didn't do the change. I didn't get a chance to slide under the back either to...
