    Add Apple Carplay to Gen 1 Sync 1?

    Here's a quick question.... Did you have cameras and if so, do they still work? Did you do the install? If so, can the install be reversed or were cuts made that prohibit reversal?

    Ford & Carfax's awful policy. BE AWARE !!!

    Same story here...... lost about $3k when the carfux said my Shelby had "Frame Damage". I paid an auto-inspector to check the frame and he could find nothing.

    Yet another Supercharger thread...

    As with most Gearheads..... saying that "I only want a little more power......", soon, you may want MORE POWER! Go with the biggest and most upgradable blower right off the bat. Then, detune for the level of reliability you want. Turning up the ponies then becomes much easier and more cost...

    Tire recomendations

    I had the KO2's on my F150FX4 -- drove 42mi/day on washboard/pothole/and decomposed granite with fist sized rock. Got just 15k miles! However, the grip was 2x compared to the Cooper that I replaced them with. The Gen1 I have has the KO's, same roads daily and the grip with those is about the...
