DoH! I forgot you were the op! I didn’t understand ford ESS completely when I first got mine either. Is your motor truly not running by the time you step on the gas? You should take it back to the dealer to find the issue if that is the case as you should never be ready to pull into traffic and...

I have no idea which vehicle or engine you have so I can’t say. Easy enough for you to look it up or look up a way to turn it off. Do you have a button on yours? I believe they sell eliminators cheap that just turns the button each time you start the vehicle so you don’t have to. I am not...

Bump. That is a great price on this Jeep! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ford doesn’t use the starter, at least not for some of their newer eb’s. My 3.5 has the computer figure out which piston is in the best position and fires that to start the motor. Does not bother me one bit. The engine is running before I can get my foot off the brake so there is less...

That is some ridiculously horrible gas mileage! How do you do it???? I run 80-85 regularly on the highway and I get 21 even with about 6-700 pounds in it. No cap though. You must stay in boost constantly! If I got that mileage I would sell it and never look back. I have a trip to OB in may...

Very cool idea and trip!!!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Interesting e-moto!!!! Nicely done on the f150. Love my 19 but really like the idea of the gen set! Hard to beat that set up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Very nice! What has the truck in the shop? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good effort by them. Looks like it can compete in the desert, though not sure about competing in technical stuff. I am a big fan of KTMs off road. They are at the top of the game in suspension tuning and fueling/throttle response off road. KTMs aren’t like Honda reliable but they are far ahead...

I have a 2019 with just the standard eco boost but I am very interested in this model. Especially in SFL with the 7.2kw to power my ac during hurricanes. Much better than keeping a generator around. So you guys do the real world testing for me!

Nice! Just curious, on a trip using the electric just as an assist for accelerating how long does it last?

My 2019 3.5 eb sport f150 4wd came with 3.55s and locking rear with the tow package. I really don’t understand the fuelly ratings for the 3.5 eb unless they are working the hell out of it towing and hauling. I have averaged 22 over the first 25k miles. I get 21 mpg at 85 and not towing. If those...

I would consider one on a medium height rack in the bed of my f150 as long as it stayed below cab height when down. I guess that wouldn’t really be a RTT then? I have a Jku and I would not put a rtt on it unless it was a Ursula. I can sleep inside and don’t add a bunch of weight or raise the...

Great to see you back at it!!!!!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well I do have them. About 5k on my jku. 35x10.5. Very very quiet, no noticeable wear so far. No serious off road but miles of 3-4” mud on dirt roads. Very nice. I got them for the narrow aspect and because they have excellent reviews on the wrangler forums from people who actually have them...

Weight is certainly the most overlooked aspect of overlanding. I am in the wrangler community and. I am amazed how many people immediately put the vehicle over the gvwr. Steel bumpers, winch, roof rack, big tires and you are overweight. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

100% on the code reader. I like the OBD JScan app for the phone also. Allows you to set up drls, tire size, code reader, etc and read anything the OBD can.

And just like that it is over! Not very far into Canada. Was it worth the Canadian visit other than for completion? Thanks again for posting your trip. It would make a good guide for someone in the future. Will you do a wrap up and lessons learned post? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
