If you are changing your own, I would go with AMSoil. I own a F350 SRW diesel and most people over on thedieselstop seem to be pretty happy with that. That said, I use the Motorcraft full synthetic as my extended warranty is through Ford and I don't want them to try and claim that any engine...

I would normally say that there has got to be some mistake with pricing. I just had my BMW 550i in the shop for an "oil change" $2,000 bucks later, i had a differential bushing replaced, a guibo replaced, and a new half shaft because the left inner boot had a leak. Fortunately the half shaft...

if your wife informed you she was going to go out and spend 50k on a new set of furniture without telling you, or buy herself a new car, say a nice SUV, sporty car, etc for herself, would you be as understanding as you want her to be with you?

She would not get sick as much if she looked at the horizon more. Burying her face in her phone is probably the reason she's getting sick...

That's the reason my wife and I decide on our cars together. 90 percent of the time, we take my car whenever we go someplace together. She tried a Mustang, Camaro, and Charger when we looked at her car, and she has no desire to get one. She loves her 340xi though (she almost got an M3, but...

I own a 550i (2013) and while that is a nice car, I would not get one again. Maybe the N63TU engine is better, but the N63 has had tons of troubles. if you go that route, get a 2014 or newer. If you can accept a used car, the Chevrolet SS is a nice vehicle. Better than a 5 series IMO. If I...

Nope, not manual or bust. I've driven manuals, I've driven automatics, I've driven DCTs. My preference is DCT, Automatic, manual...provided there is a direct way to control the gears on the automatic (paddle, bump stick, etc) I understand why some people only want manuals. I really do, and I...

only if it was biased correctly. Ford's AWD bias is currently towards the front wheels. This makes for a poor handling vehicle as seen in the Taurus SHO. I would much rather have a RWD bias with the front wheels only having power put to them during wheel slippage. I don't know how this...

In 1.5-3.5 years, I will probably get a new car (I drive mine around 10 years or and selling them when they start costing me about a car payment a month in repair bills) I am looking at the Mustang GT and maybe modding it, a Lincoln "Mark" if they base it on the Mustang and sell it, the CTS V...

I think they got it just right :like: Manuals are nice and I hope you get your option, but a dual clutch transmission is also very nice. You're still controlling the shifts, but with paddles instead of a clutch/lever Glad to see them getting into the modern era

I am not sure I like the way the headlights look. It almost looks like they forgot that the wider stance would require a shift in the lighting, and when they got to assembly they just squeezed some black filler in there instead of making a bespoke headlight assembly. However, it might be...

I am not even sure numbers will be released tomorrow. It seems that over the past decade or two, manufacturers have held those numbers pretty close to the vest because they don't want another company jumping them by a few HP right before the release. I suspect the soonest we will get those...

There is only one truck you can use to pull a GT350...a Raptor. Ok, seriously...Diesel F150, or better yet, 250/350. If you are SERIOUS about long distance pulls, get a 350 with dualies. The 450 would be overkill. The reason is that if you have a rear blowout hauling a trailer with SRW, it...

I lived in Northern Illinois for 30 years, went to school in the midwest. My favorite activity on the first day it snowed was to go watch all the out of towners crash at the local (bad) intersection because they didn't know how to drive in snow.. You live in Minneapolis, you should already...

Well, I have a 550i with an N63 engine and the horror stories you hear on the webs are true for it. I've owned it since new (ordered car, so no one else drove it) and did the proper break in. It still burns about a quart every 1-2000 miles, depending on throttle usage. They say it's "normal"...

One thing if it's AWD...it ABSOLUTELY needs to be RWD biased. When there is no slip in the back, I want my back wheels pushing and my front wheels steering. Ford tried a vehicle with higher power than normal in a FWD biased AWD setup in the SHO and the torque steer when I put my foot in it...

My 3 cars. An F10 550i as a daily driver. F350 when I want to move people or trailers, and a 340ix for my wife. I have no use for a wannabe suv for a vehicle. You can't tow very much with it, you can't load up much inside and they are boring to drive. Those are also 4 people vehicles as...

There is obviously room for a 4 door coupe (not a sedan) in the market. They are probably low volume though, which is why I think it would be better under the Lincoln brand under the Mark name. This also means they don't have to worry about diluting Mustang sales as much. I loved my 97...

I would love to see a 4 door mustang, or have it be a Lincoln. IMO doesn't have to be called a Mustang, it can be called a Falcon, Thunderbird, Torino, Cougar, Galaxie, etc. Just don't even consider naming it a Taurus! I can see it competing with the 6 series GC or some of the other 4 door...

Just my lack of knowledge, but wouldn't you have to sue Ford to get your claim covered if they denied you? If so, I am sure that your costs for expert witnesses, independent analysis of the failure, etc to counter their analysis and experts will run you a lot of money. While I believe the law...
