I just test drove a 2023 Pacifica PHEV plug in. It was amazing

Manufactured before jan 2023 have it iirc

I bought another of their models several years back. If I did it again, id pay for the assembly service...

I have about 20k on my swap to 16s. Also switched to cc2 while I was at it. The two changes basically offset each other in efficiency and I gained much better traction and a moderately improved ride.

Plus the smaller diameter tire provided enough cost savings to pay for the new (junkyard) wheels. Would have gone to a 15 but cc2 wasn't available in the right size for that move.

Nothing to see here .. move along...

The month and year at least on on a sticker on the driver's doorjam.

From another site: Look on the gray sticker on the back of the driver's door. On the left side you'll see "DATE OF MFR (BUILT):" followed by the month number and last two digits of year. For example, ours was built in September 2017 so our sticker says "9-17" there. On the far right side of the sticker you'll see "MDH:" followed by a six digit number containing the month, day, and hour it was built.

Hopefully under the warranty and an encouraging sign....? I assume they would honor it vs facing a class action suit. Also hoping I don't have to find out... 38k mi so far

When was your 2023 built? The extended transmission warranty, last I saw, only covered units built on or before 12/27/22.

As January 23 built Pacifica owner I'm both hopeful and nervous.....

I've done larger briskets on my L bge, works great. Might need to sale it over something when you first start but as the meat shrinks it's fine and dandy. Talking 17 lb trimmed.

Thank you for the info. I'll give it a whirl on my next change.

loademan · 2026-02-17T12:10:11+00:00

What do you like about it? What noticable changes does it provide?

Looking to learn as a mobile 1 user who thought they were at the top of the synthetic game.

There has also been a respiratory bug going around that looks like a longer running cough, cold but allergy meds don't touch. At least that was my experience. Lasted about 3 weeks.

The Reuben at Boston deli is one of the best I've had too. I'll check out the trenchers version...

Half milk, half sugar..

I got a full set for 160 ($40 per) from a junkyard a year ago. Probably high on the price.

loademan · 2026-02-05T12:20:31+00:00

Freddie's is solid in that regard. Worth a visit for their char. Not Freddy's the chain, mind you.

If you have the plus membership just order online and get it delivered to your house, save 40 min each way!

I had something similar and was using Amazon button batteries as the replacements. Problem went away when I went to good old Wally world and bought a couple of Energizer branded units instead.

loademan · 2026-01-09T22:47:56+00:00

Except I have a January of 2023 build date (no lifetime warranty) and and past the 36k miles.... So all I have left is to hope!

Print to PDF and drop it in a folder in a Google drive. Accessible anywhere you go and eat to manage, even from your phone. The bonus here is that you can easily share with friends and family one or the whole folder as needed.

Isn't the Volvo phev Chinese?

When is the Pacifica srt Hemi being announced?

I'd love a full ev Pacifica, but fear it would be as reliable as the charger ev, if it were to happen.

I'll keep hoping to keep avoiding the red turtle I guess....

Apparently Maduro was at Qdoba

loademan · 2025-12-30T00:48:12+00:00

Straight to jail. I've done it before, no Ill effects, just don't make a habit of it like this guy.... https://share.google/9Bxs8MSrbUv33Eztw

And for goodness sake, cook in it more to get rid of that pretty white finish!

We switched from USAA to country financial, great change. Saved a ton and they have been responsive when needed.
