    Acura Crankshaft/Bearing Recall

    Insight and commentary from a dealer tech that's got one apart I don't like it, I'm almost inclined to say I prefer the H/K model of drop shipping a long or short block American Honda's warranty times and service departments are far from the best in my experience 😔

    I sure do miss cheap oil.

    I wasn't around in the early 90's, I'm not aware of late 1900's oil pricing 👀 I haven't paid more than $2 per qt in over a year, I refuse to at this point Historical pricing for reference I do remember turning the age where I went with Dad to AutoZone for consumables ~2007 or so we got our...

    2024 Corolla Cross Hybrid Milky oil cap

    It should be at the max mark Either have them top it off, or top it off yourself and monitor If it slowly drops, you've got coolant making it into the oil Or send a sample of the oil out to Blackstone

    How is my smart phone able to talk to my F350 20 miles away, without the F350 having a paid cell service?

    FordPass Connect service is now free https://fordauthority.com/2019/10/fordpass-services-are-now-free/ This is a rare Ford W, compared to OnStar and BlueLink connected subscription charges 🙄

    All Kirkland PCMO $29.99 for 10 qt

    $3 per qt for Dexos cert oil is an excellent value 🤌 I've paid less 😏 But for a spontaneous chicken bake/hot dog run, it's one of the better retail prices going

    What is the single best vehicle to buy if you're a tightwad?

    Ford Cuts Mach-E prices by thousands

    Mediocre savings, nothing to get me running in the door (X Plan supplier discount) My local (wretched) Ford store has a passable lease deal on 2023 models, but that mileage is a joke 🙄 That APR is decent, but that's not unexpected Ford Credit will approve anything that can fog a mirror 🙄
