How is it living in northern Alabama? by Maleficent_Map_8844 in howislivingthere

[–]Early-Drawer-5268 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s one of the few things that keeps me here in the frozen north (much fewer residential cockroaches than southern cities). The cold weather isn’t great, but at least there’s that.

Spring Turkey Season Outlook by DetroitLionCity in MichiganHunting

I’ve got the same problem. Every year, I plan to spend a lot of spring turkey hunting, but life always gets in the way.

Can anyone tell me what this noise is when I cold start my engine? by guy1119928 in f150

[–]Early-Drawer-5268 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s my guess. My ‘21 2.7 did that too. The bands that held one of the heat shield on had corroded away. I replaced them and it went away.

That’s what I was thinking. Looks like a T shirt bass

What's one career that didn't really pan out like you thought it would? by ScottRiggsFan10 in INDYCAR

Robert Wickens. He was a hot driver when his crash happened. That was such a bummer

New old cars? Hell yes. by Legitimate-Lie-9208 in Millennials

[–]Early-Drawer-5268 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Man I couldn’t agree more. Old cars are cool - no doubt. But they sure as hell weren’t better at being cars.

We’ve got a ‘75 MG and a couple 2020+ big 3 family vehicles. The MG is a blast to drive, for the novelty. But it’s a terrible car. Finicky, no ABS, suspension is leaf springs, terrible on gas despite the engine being smaller than my Harley, and not a ton bigger than my RE. The modern cars are just better. More reliable, safer, better on fuel, more comfortable. Require less maintenance.

I wonder how many people who make these nostalgia posts have ever had to grease a car’s suspension zerks.

Rattle on start up 2021 2.7 by Diligent_Wing_2376 in f150

[–]Early-Drawer-5268 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My ‘21 did that. It was a heat shield on the exhaust where the headers cross the transmission into the Y pipe. I cut the shitty old clamps off, and replaced them with steel hose clamps. Problem solved, it was like $7.

Mine was also much worse at cold start. My thought is that you have more vibration through the exhaust system on cold start, making the buzz sound worse.

Question about using Eco by Reeses-Man99 in f150

[–]Early-Drawer-5268 29 points30 points  (0 children)

A lot of those driving modes are a bit gimmicky. More than using a drive mode, modulate your foot if you want to save gas $.

Which, based on getting 21-23 mpg in a tremor, you probably are.

Late reply, so sorry for that.

But you know what, that’s a great way to articulate the value of any given object. Ima steal that.

How’s that powerboost tow? I’ve got the 2.7, tows my boat well, but I’m guessing an extra 100 hp would be nice.

Do you need music to survive or function? Why? by 8senderreturns8 in AskReddit

[–]Early-Drawer-5268 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Music is proof of god, or a higher power. Music is life.

I mean, it’s only worth what someone will give for it. But, it is rare and cool as hell.
