I wasn't smiling the other day...

Just call it the hog slayer.

On my way to work, a damned feral hog ran in front of me so quick, I didn't even move the steering wheel or go for the brake.
In fact, I didn't know what I'd hit until I played back the dashcam video.

Spoiler, bumper, grill, turn signal, condenser, radiator, etc. etc.

$5,000 later, I'm smiling again.

FWIW,
Kirby

^^^ That's crazy, but becoming more and more with that hog population around here.

Now.... Post up the video!

I will do that tonight, but I have to shorten it up... It's too large.
Be aware there are some choice swear words heard... Might offend some folks...

Love the backup tech on the raptor with sky view, it's nice for backing into parking lanes perfectly every time or seeing what's all around. Very cool feature...and useful on a daily driver. I have no issues with nothing on the 350 tho.

Apparently because of people like me :lol:
All of my other vehicles have both cameras and sensors, and sensors definitely work best. I would give up a camera for sensors. Can't look at the low screen in reverse and look at all three mirrors at the same time, lol.
.....and me too, i think the tiny mini base screen is useless with back up camera.
Would rather have backing sensors as well, much more reliable in my book.

I have it in all of my existing and past cars and miss it dearly in the Shelby.

Here's a thought, look behind your car before you get in and then use your mirrors.....

Did any of you guys drive before sensors and cameras? How did you do it? Lmao...


This was meant as a ribbing, not being mean so don't get your panties in a bunch.
Well, we all do agree on one thing, the Shelby sits much lower to the ground than most cars out there, so hitting either the rear valance or front splitter is way easier if you're not being careful, like i was the other day.

Received my winning HCM Carbon giveaway letters today. They look very nice. Hopefully I will have time to put them on next week.

First I've heard of someone just having the pump replaced ... any more details? I had my engine replaced in my 2016 due to complete loss of oil pressure. Suspected failed OPG, but the dealer just replaced my broken engine and sent it back to Ford for them to analyze (as such, I never really knew what happened...).

So, Ford ED HOT LINE had the mechanic remove the oil cooler, valve covers and cut open the oil filter resulting in no found metal. Then said replace the oil pump and recheck. The mechanic did want to put TSS Billet gears in, but the shop foreman happened to walk by and say it would void the warranty
Very happy Marcus the mechanic did all the work without a fliipin trace of ever touching her! Ford has my vote

When your car lost oil pressure did you immediately shut it down? Could you give us the details on those circumstances?
