    Black Series fire hazard

    What are they even trying to accomplish with the two pole 30 in the first post? Does not make a lick of sense to me.

    Why don't we see more Ford Ranger builds

    It has a tiny fuel tank, although in relation to other mid size fuel tanks I don't know if it's a big deviation from the norm. There are a few people on here with mild and moderate builds. But I'd guess it's that there are probably less current gen Ford rangers rolling around than tacos and the...

    F150 - 2.7L vs 3.5L vs 5.0L

    And they still haven't ironed it out

    Does a 230 mile/charge range make you more or less likely to buy a Lighning?

    Does that small town/municipality have grid capacity to even do that? I live in "the" major city of my province, and our grid is collapsing under the strain of ancient infrastructure, despite having a brand new overpriced transmission line built to send megawatts to the USA, and plenty of extra...

    F150 - 2.7L vs 3.5L vs 5.0L

    I should by a lead frame for my 6R80 and some control arms and ball joints etc just to have in stock. Seems like I'll be driving my 14 for the next decade lol

    F150 - 2.7L vs 3.5L vs 5.0L

    Any other Canadians noticing Ford.ca has changed the builder? Not only is it still showing 21' model year for the build/configure, but on my mobile I don't have a large portion of any of the options showing up. Nothing for bed liners or tail gates or tow packages or anything. It's like they...

    F150 upgrades

    See if any Super Duty FX4 take off tires available cheap as well. 275/70R18 wrangler something's in a mild AT pattern. Sometimes find those cheap. OEM skids at least, or something like RCI aluminum ones, or steel if you want to be even safer. I'd lean towards add a leaf before a helper spring...

    2002 GMC 3500 AKA Juggernaut

    It's lift blocks for the rear and a spring spacer. Not the most optimal but not tons to go wrong with the lift parts itself. I don't know how the front ends of those vans do with lifts, but lacking the drive train bits, it might just wear out front end parts. With lift blocks you generally...

    I couldn't remember as I was never into Vics. 2 valve mod was almost always far more reliable than the 3 valves IIRC.

    F150 - 2.7L vs 3.5L vs 5.0L

    Did the Vic's have the 2 valve or the 3?

    Does a 230 mile/charge range make you more or less likely to buy a Lighning?

    The fact in Canada it's $13,000 for the ER battery puts the truck well outside my budget, and it not offering a Supercab 6.5 bed also makes it not useful. Otherwise the short range battery might be useable for a work truck of you exclude towing. Also no Pro available here.

    INEOS Grenadier

    Why the front solid axle, if 31s are the tire of choice? Most manufacturers went away from SFA to save money in production and increase ride quality. For any actual rock crawlers, there are benefits to a solid axle, but as far as my experience goes, being able to easily lift larger amounts to...

    2017 F-150 build...Everyone meet Walter White

    Mustang parts should fit the carrier. I think only difference is the axles being CV and not solid if I'm making any sense? I forget what year they went to the Super 8.8 but more enthusiast parts available for those. Lots more options for the 9.75 to be sure, which is why I'm leaning that way for...

    F150 - 2.7L vs 3.5L vs 5.0L

    If the 7.3 matches or surpasses the 6.2 in reliability then Ford will have hot the gold mine. They just need to build the rest of the truck to that level.

    Ram and jeep Canada websites have something similar and I can't even get around it using Chrome on my mobile. I haven't tried desktop yet.

    F150 - 2.7L vs 3.5L vs 5.0L

    What were the issues with the 2.7? We're the problems with the two trucks engine/power train related? Or other thing like door latches, moon roofs, seats etc

    F150 - 2.7L vs 3.5L vs 5.0L

    SI Senor. NA 3.7 cyclone. The first gen Ecoboost 3.5 along with the 3.5 NA and cyclone where all designed together. For whatever reason, 3.7 and NA 3.5 don't suffer problems like the EB. I'm guessing they don't suffer timing chain stretch because they don't have massive amounts of torque...

    F150 - 2.7L vs 3.5L vs 5.0L

    Imma drive my slowish 3.7 that's not great on gas and smile as it's only been in the shop for leaking oil pan gasket and failed speaker harnesses (and the blower fan rattling) outside of routine maintenance in almost 8 years. I'm going to count my parking brake seizing up on seldom using it and...

    F150 - 2.7L vs 3.5L vs 5.0L

    5.0 is basically a modern modular V8 (think 4.6/5.4) The 6.2 is a SOHC and very reliable.

    F150 - 2.7L vs 3.5L vs 5.0L

    I recommend taking advantage of our weak dollar if possible. And most Canadian trucks I've found have the larger fuel tank.
