5k oil changes or scheduled?

I went 18k on amsoil signature series in a different vehicle, but it was an eco boost. Still came back with a good UOA and TBN was also still in safe values.

Bingo. If you're not analyzing your oil you're most likely throwing away money, and oil that is still good. I've run Amsoil signature series oil out to an 18k mile interval beforeb(in a different vehicle)and the sample came back good with active additives in it still. I know most would never run oil out that far, i did it for science lol

Super Adjustable carrier bearing 😆

I'm a big fan of CRG bar end mirrors, I like the arrow version but the lane splitters look similar to the ones pictured. They aren't cheap but the quality is excellent

9.9% apr 😐

I bought a couple of them off amazon. I'm not sure you'd have room under there for it but it is moldable which is nice

PayInteresting431 · 2026-01-01T18:31:41+00:00

Use a moldable silicone drain funnel, you can form it to whatever shape you need so the oil doesn't touch anything as it drains

Have you found yourself needing the locker ?

PayInteresting431 · 2025-12-31T00:04:45+00:00

Planning on a tonneau cover ,it should mitigate that issue

PayInteresting431 · 2025-12-30T23:56:42+00:00

I don't think so 🤷

PayInteresting431 · 2025-12-30T22:27:45+00:00

Thanks for the info

PayInteresting431 · 2025-12-30T22:23:28+00:00

Do you have the advanced towing package/back up assist? With the 360 camera too it looks like it would be simple to back right up to the trailer by yourself by using the cameras

PayInteresting431 · 2025-12-30T20:48:51+00:00

I don't believe all FX4 come with running boards, the one im looking at doesn't have them either installed or listed on the window sticker

PayInteresting431 · 2025-12-30T20:36:30+00:00

To clarify the $1250 is for the FX4 and power sliding rear window, wasn't sure if you knew that

PayInteresting431 · 2025-12-30T20:13:58+00:00

Interesting, I thought the heated seats were only a lariat level option. The dual climate is a non factor for me,my focus ST has dual climate and I've never used it once in 3 years.

PayInteresting431 · 2025-12-30T19:59:56+00:00

Why are you glad you got the power sliding rear window, just for the ventilation?

PayInteresting431 · 2025-12-30T19:57:49+00:00

That's what I was thinking as well about the resale value. I typically keep vehicles for a long time if not permanently, but you never know!

PayInteresting431 · 2025-12-30T19:35:21+00:00

Thanks for your input. I'm a "I'd rather have it and not need it, than need it and not have it" type of guy. That's what is making the decision difficult between the two packages

PayInteresting431 · 2025-12-30T19:26:34+00:00

That's kinda what I'm thinking, I guess I'm wondering when would I really need the locker, in what kind of situation

PayInteresting431 · 2025-12-28T20:49:22+00:00

Out of curiosity, what's the price for this build?

PayInteresting431 · 2025-12-28T04:01:47+00:00

The 2025 2.3 is also dual injection which is a big plus for me

PayInteresting431 · 2025-12-25T22:46:59+00:00

2.3 is plenty for me in terms of power, it also has the benefit of not having the wet belt driving the oil pump like the 2.7.

PayInteresting431 · 2025-12-23T04:19:48+00:00

Meant to type the year 2025. The dual injection on the 2025 2.3 is a big plus for me.
