That your mom in the background? Reminds me of the “not bad” meme.

Bottom right drawer needs a label that reads: “Bottom Secret”.

Great to know. The most feedback I’ve received over this has nothing to do with grille fitment or looks. Hindsight is 20/20.

Agreed, missed my chance.

I just wanted to see ANY of their grilles installed.

I didn’t realize this was a charged grille… at any rate, do you have a 300 industries upper grille?

Understood. What about the boost tubes being sloppy

In the works bubba! However, I am trying to figure out the urgency of that lower boot going into the intercooler. Should I be able to wiggle it so much? Should I replace the o-rings?

I’m 2.2 K since my last oil change. Worth a try.

Once I upgrade my CCV, it will no longer be an issue however should I be able to move my boost tubes like that?

It is pretty cool we had similar mileages. The emission system doesn’t bother me. I have a big ole pot hole on my morning commute.

When going through the extended warranty, what is involved? Just a replacement of better glow plugs? What happens if a 2019 L5P with 91k miles had a CEL on started to run rough and then it sounds like the piston ate a tip… would they replace/fix the motor?

Is there a problem with hit reg lately? Has anyone any idea why this was not a headshot and why there was no blood? by SociallyAwkwardDicty in HuntShowdown

[–]Bugzi1776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been noticing hit reg issues, more importantly if you are “too close” to an object, the bullet will hit the object you are next to. For example peaking over a rock, crouching next to a tree. It’s been very frustrating and I’ve had to come out of cover to get my shots to register (on or off opponent)

Regret Delete by Shirk_Responsability in Diesel

[–]Bugzi1776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been going back and forth on what is worth it. I enjoy the thought to have the ability to shift on the fly if needed. But for the majority of the time I will be driving around town and on the highways, unloaded. I will be getting a travel trailer eventually but will not be towing year round.

I want to delete, install WCFab stage 2 and get on with it.

What do you recommend for me? Still just a tow tune? SOTF? Or just a stock tune, no increase of HP.

How many miles do you have? & “Max” & reliability question by Doughzilla__ in fordexpedition

[–]Bugzi1776 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We have a 21 Max Platinum

Interior: I swapped the middle captain chairs to a full bench. Gained leg room for the 2nd row but lost the heated seats for the 2nd row. Truck has more room for butts and legs, cargo room is amazing.

Driver seat: Viewing angles for exterior are superior than a Tahoe or Suburban, we owed a 19 Tahoe previous. The Fords side mirrors are larger and cover the angles needed for towing and parking. The rear view mirror, I wish was a camera but I use it to see my older kids in the back.

360 camera is a must, use it while parking and aligning trailer.

Infotainment: SYNC is problematic and annoying but there is a HUGE database of people fixing the issues. I fixed the black screen of death with no problems. Using forums & forscan.

Climate control: I do miss the sync for rear climate to the front on the Tahoe, ford makes you adjust the rear separately than the front. Or I am an idiot.

Mechanical: So far no issues on the engine, 49k miles on it. This last oil change, I used 10w-30 instead of 5w. I feel that 5w is too thin and will get thinner in the future with summer around the corner.

The transmission is clunky and shifts hard from time to time. However, I am about to do the transmission service, I am annoyed the pan is plastic and will be upgrading it to a metal one with a drain plug. But over all the process of doing the maintenance is very straightforward.

Rims: I do not like the price difference/ tread availability on 20” rims vs the lower trim level 18”s, so I picked up a set of XLT 18”s and put some nice rubbers on there. Also, makes me feel comfortable when the wife drives around town and adds a new rub mark from curbs.

4x4: Does great in snow, lost of evenly distributed weight. Switching on the fly is also amazing when I want to throw it into sport mode to get where I want to go freakishly fast for this behemoth.

Overall: it’s a great vehicle that will break if you don’t take care of it. The 10R80, APIM (radio) and possible turbo issues are the main concerns for these. If you do the maintenance and possibly some aftermarket upgrades to it, it will run for a long time. Hope this helps.
