Yeah that huge engine cover makes it look like you have a damn crab hiding under your hood. Unfortunately now you get to look at the bundle of hoses going every which way. Upon further inspection, I don't see any provisions for adding coil covers to this new Coyote engine. If that's the case...
Yup exactly! Ford has never been particularly good at routing all these hoses in a clean manner. The engine cover and coil covers at least helped hide some of that mess. Speaking of mess, the hose routing they did under the hood of my F150 leaves me smdh! Zero F@(ks Given! Don't even get me...
Thankfully us 4V owners were exempt from the ugliness factor plaguing the 4.6's.
I'm seeing a progressive level of ugliness to the Coyote engine bays with each new model. The 2011-2014 engines looked the best imo. Even the GT350 engine bay didn't escape the trend. It looks like crap...
They should call it something else and not tarnish the Lightning name either.
Speaking of, with the aluminum regular cab F-150's coming in at like 4100 lbs, I see a perfect platform for a new Lightning. Hell stock with a 5.0 they're already running low 13's in the 1/4.

If you find a non-IUP car, don't let that stop you from buying it. You can probably still find all the IUP stuff online. The only thing mine is missing is the silver painted center stack bezel and the head rests. But I prefer the non-IUP headrests so that was a non issue for me anyway. I saw...
I'd prefer it if Ford just made a 3.5L V-8 ecoboost and didn't force me to have to listen to the wet fart exhaust tone of the V-6.
I wouldn't mind a couple of electric motors powering the front wheels so long as they could keep the weight down. But that will probably require downsizing the...
I've never been about that. I'm still rocking my 25 year old 93 Ranger with a 3.0L V-6 as my daily. For the uninformed, that's the torqueless wonder that always played second fiddle to it's big brother, the more powerful 4.0L V-6. To me it's never been about the exclusivity. It's about the...
We shouldn't have to help name this SUV for them. If we have to hold them by the hand so they don't continue coming out with heritage names to name this POS SUV then maybe they shouldn't be in their respective positions in the first place. Seriously this has got to be Ford trolling us. If it...
Just received an email from my electric company to not use the washing machine on tuesday or wednesday due to the extra strain the Texas power grid will have these next few days since pretty much the whole state will be at or below freezing temperatures.
The electric power grid needs a lot of...
Makes you wonder what kind of manginas they got working over there now. Bring back John Coletti. Maybe he can help you guys find where you left your balls.
