Far from being an extreme use case, at the time of the oil change the truck had about 10.1k miles on it, and around 5300 miles on Royal Purple 5W-30 run through a Wix filter. Comments from Blackstone Labs: Universal averages show typical wear levels after about 6,000 miles on the oil. Your...

Beastly Ram Rebel TR, TRX Coming Per the article linked above, it looks like Ram is probably moving ahead with the Rebel TR (naturally aspirated 7.0L Hemi) and TRX (supercharged 6.4L Hemi). No info, re: suspension, etc... That said, Ram's coils on the rear axle should allow for some pretty...

...so, first off, I realize that this is a bit like picking on a crippled kid. That said, he was asking for it. Anyhow, the wife and I were headed up to Lowe's for some gardening goodies on Saturday when we end up next to this tarted-up Mercury Grand Marquis (of all things) at a stop light...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oI-ymLQmm9s I was really surprised; I honestly thought that the Dodge was going to be the most capable crawler due to the locking diffs at both ends, the sway bar disconnect, and the solid axles... and if they had been crawling (stationary) boulders, that may...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=or43trFsBwQ The long and short of it is that vs. the (Nissan) V8, the EBV6 kicked ass. However, platform to platform, the Nissan provided a superior towing experience (in areas that had nothing to do with engine/transmission). That second part isn't...

Alright, either I'm a moron (no comments!), or the search function above is for shit, 'cause I couldn't find anything on this subject. Anyhow, what sayeth FRF on the subject of Sulastic shackles? It seems like they might add some additional compliance to the rear suspension as well as a mild...

Okay, for those who are honestly convinced that an Ecoboost replacement motor is coming for the Raptor: What will the replacement motor be? On what model year Raptor will the replacement be available? What source(s) have you convinced of this? If you have inside info, there's no need to...

Dodge To Dealers: Don’t Be Demons On SRT Demon Price | AutoVerdict Pretty damned good idea on Dodge's part if I say so my damned self.

I know that there's already a thread for this product in the GenI section, but I wanted to make sure that the GenII crowd is aware of them as well... if you have a desire to be able to access the storage space (or the factory sub) behind the (driver's side) rear seat back in your GenII/F150, you...

So, after seeing a number of "I was driving my Raptor home after purchasing it 1000 miles away and it didn't make the trip" threads, I wanted to post one where everything went according to plan; the reason for this is that I don't want the only news available to be bad news. After all, who takes...

As I was looking at tuners (hardware) today, it occurred to me that there's not really a good place to mount a big tuner screen like the Edge Insight Pro CTS2 (Preorder 2017-2021 F150 3.5L EB Raptor Edge Insight Pro CTS2 with Choice of 5 Star Custom Tunes 86100 - 5 Star Tuning), and I got to...

So I'm hoping that it's a goof in the ETIS system, but it looks like full details for my truck (built 11MAR17) have been populated. One of the things that I noticed was, "Less Elect Locking Differential". Will some of you who have received your trucks (and know for sure that you have the...

Just confirmed with a call to Ford Performance, my truck was in fact built on its (2nd) scheduled build date this past Saturday. It is scheduled to arrive at my stealership (which is about 10 miles from the plant) sometime between today and the 19th. Awesome! Now I can make my flight...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7Ptb4HDctY tl;dw - the G2 is a better truck, but we like the G1 better 'cause V8 As I have said plenty of times before, I love a V8 probably more than most, but what I like even more than a V8 is results... and despite results that are clearly superior (for...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLCJ5AtkUOc Yes, I know, tires and driving... just wanted to stir the pot for the weekend... :ROFLJest:

As I was commuting to work this morning, I found my thoughts wandering, as they usually do ("Damn, I coulda gone for another hour or so of sleep... Hey there, bonehead, are you really gonna pull out in front of me? Radio sucks SO bad in this town... I wonder what we're gonna have for dinner...
