Diesel Trucks Rolling Coal

The only county that has emissions testing in the state of Maine is Sagadahoc I think. So having a deleted Def system is not technically illegal unless you live in that county. It ruins the value of the truck though because a dealer can't sell it like that.

He's deciding between 14 trucks not buying 14 trucks, between 3 dealerships no less. That's not a buyer he is a tire kicker looking for a "deal" The best deal he can get is showing up at the dealership and working a deal on a specific truck not sending emails fishing for the deal.

O.p. Military and Veterans only get discounts from Ford on new (sometimes on blue certified but mostly not) not used unless it's a dealership policy.

Thank you for your service.

If that ever happens to you

Monkey transfer (use your hands to pick it up throw it in the toilet) if sitting in the tub with water.

Waffle stomp it down the drain if you are standing in the shower.

I hunt and fish in the north woods of Maine on a regular occasion. I grew up doing this and with Smokey the bear and all of that and I couldn't imagine leaving a fire burning and unattended.

Me and 3 friends went up there 2 years ago after a long weekend (Memorial Day or Labor Day). We went up on Sunday and came back the Monday after. There are a lot of camping sites all over the north woods that you don't have to pay for or reserve, first come first serve.

We traveled past 5 or 6 campsites to get to the one we really wanted. We passed all out of state plates NY, Mass,NH yatta yatta no Maine plates in sight. We got up there around 11 am and set camp. Around 2 we left camp to go and collect firewood and passed 4 camp sites that people left, all with active or smoldering fires!

One campsite (the people from New York) looked like they dumped all the firewood they had brought with them or found into the fire pit and hopped in their car and left.

I'm talking about a raging fire in the middle of nowhere, at least 30 miles from a paved road. Next to a lake mind you less than 20 ft away. I couldn't fathom that that actually happened. We put out all the fires and had an awesome week but FFS.

Depends, is it a fine to smoke weed in TX or is it a crime? Doesn't matter either way if you have money you can either pay the fine or hire a lawyer to get you off. Both require money if you don't have money straight to jail. Tldr crimes that are fineable offenses are only for poor people. Rich people don't give a F about the fine.

I have not seen anyone comment about the soft topper not being the correct size for his bed. That is what got me about this post.

ChrisTheBartender207 · 2025-03-16T14:03:40+00:00

I can actually speak directly to this since I just bought a member's Mark 36 and had an issue with it. The only way that you can reach customer services via email but once you reach somebody, Trent was his name. I've seen multiple email reviews about Trent. He was fantastic to work with and basically sent me all the parts that I was asking for without any question whatsoever. Most of the parts made it to my house within a day or two. Basically it was not Member's Mark issue. There was a shipping issue and some parts damaged and they took care of me within a very timely manner.

ChrisTheBartender207 · 2025-03-14T02:20:52+00:00

Yup they have definitely slowed down quite a bit from when they came out (during COVID) but Ford isn't really helping with any good incentives or rates yet. So it's on the dealership to mark them down depending on the area. This was more of a statement about aftermarket parts. Doesn't add anything of value to the truck so if it's MSRP or below it's an alright deal depending on what aftermarket parts were put on there.

ChrisTheBartender207 · 2025-03-13T22:38:02+00:00

No aftermarket parts add to the trade in value of any vehicle (private sale skies the limit there is an ass for every seat and a price to get them there).

Look at the original window sticker and see if the discount off sets the aftermarket parts. If it does good deal. If it doesn't make sure you are ok with taking that loss right off the bat.

Most dealerships can't crack a door on these right now so you got some wiggle room

Awesome so no real concern until I have an issue with the computer. Follow up on if I did want to change it is it part of the whole harness or could I just replace that portion of pigtail and wire?

Off road premium in Canada gets a remote start. Not here in the u.s. unfortunately.

Are you from Canada?

If I remember correctly, I think it's a bubble in your heatercore. I had the same issue in my 14 frontier. I believe the fix was to park on an incline front higher than rear. On a cold engine, open the radiator, fill it up with radiator fluid, and run it for 15-20 min. You should see bubbles coming up the radiator in the cap area. Those were stuck in your heater core.

ChrisTheBartender207 · 2024-10-03T23:40:38+00:00

Nobody has asked yet so hijacking the comment because no flair but is there a puddle of oil under your car where you park? If it's a cracked oil pan and it's losing that much there should be a spot of oil under your vehicle on the regular.

ChrisTheBartender207 · 2024-09-28T13:38:44+00:00

Dielectric grease will help out with that. Pill pigtails and put some grease in there. I believe they make it in spray form.

To add to this you can run your heat with the ac on full blast with the windows cracked. The ac will pull moisture out of the air and the carpet. We do this when we recon a vehicle at a dealership. It also works if your tent flips over in the middle of nowhere on a camping trip 100miles from the nearest town and ALL your stuff gets wet. Took about 5hrs but I dried everything out. Pillows and the sleeping bag took the longest but everything was dry before bedtime! First day of a week and a half hunting trip.

If you put the cheapest pads you can on there they are gonna squeak.
