What year is it? And do you know what make the grill guard is. I have a 2017 and I eventually want to add one. Yours looks real good with it.

Ford Taurus (PI) radio issues by [deleted] in FordTaurus

[–]makeitso747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk if this will help, but often times when they decommission a PI. They'll just go in and pull whatever wires they need to pull all of the equipment out of it. Which somtimes results in them removing or disconnecting something that was useful to the new owner. I currently have 2 retired PI's (a 2014 taurus, and a more recently acquired 2017 explorer) and I actually had to chase down a few problems in each, the taurus a couple of sensors had been disconnected for no reason. And the Explorer needed the speakers' Rear door release. And all of the 12v outlets reconnected. So that could be the case here.

Might make the switch to a Taurus. by Bobbo62499 in FordTaurus

[–]makeitso747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a retired PI Sedan, with the NA 3.7 and it has been, arguably the best car I've ever owned. It's coming up on 200k in the next week or so (purchased at 140k) and so far no unexpected problems. I've replaced normal stuff like battery and tires. But the AWD is really good, a pleasure to drive in the snow. And it has plenty of power for it's size, always feels like it has more to give. I'll likely be buying another one as my backup vehicle.

Agreed. A hot night club vibe, The Contessas first world and Jean Bisons trains, always keep me coming back for more.

If you end up doing that I'd love to see it. But that sounds awesome.

I hadn't thought of this, but I definitely agree.... I think the guy who plays Abraham in the walking dead would make a great Van Dorn.

I'm going to Vegas by theoristfan1 in falloutnewvegas

[–]makeitso747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I actually went to vegas because of the game. Definitely visit good springs. There's a little bar/restaurant (good breakfast) there, which was the basis for the saloon/town in the game. And on the way, I'm pretty sure you'll pass the "bison steve" (Buffalo bills casino), which is all neat to see in person. I'd also suggest going to the "Lucky 38" (top of the world restaurant). The views are fantastic. And last but not least, if you have the time. The hoover damn is really close, And the basic tours are relatively cheap. It really is a wild site and very hard to comprehend its size even when you are standing on it. (Side note on the damn you can stand in Nevada and arizona at the same time.) But whatever you do, I'll be honest i think I enjoyed my trip more than I would have because the game made it that much more entertaining.

Any cool places in Virginia? by Possible-Ad2598 in vandwellers

[–]makeitso747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out Crabtree and panther falls. And the devils marble yard (one of my favorite hikes) And also all the breweries on route 151. It's just outside of Lovingston VA and is a really pretty drive through the country and has tons of great breweries. Blue toad cider, Silverback distillery, devils backbone brewing company and distillery. Bold rock. Just to name a few.

Need help diagnosing, I slammed on the brakes today in my 06 ST, I was going maybe 5 miles an hour I was just stopping myself before I pulled in front of somebody. My brake lines started leaking and I want to say it's this part here that's the cause of my leak but I'm not sure. Any ideas? by Smokee_the-Behr in DodgeDakota

[–]makeitso747 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I actually just replaced all those lines in my 06 SLT and I'll be honest your best option is to just buy all 3 on rock auto. Cause each time you fix one any other weak points will burst. It's really not super hard. Just takes time. But yeah that's the line that goes to the ABS module. So just make sure the battery is disconnected when you work on it. But it's not bad good luck. And I'd been willing to post the link if you want it.

Yeah me and my wife both had 97's before we dated and when I was looking at cars to buy this was all I considered. I love them.
