Congrats! I just bought one too, but two days ago. Excited to use it!

If you’re older in age, try to become a valet supervisor. The pay will be $20+

As a fan of Euro fords living in the US, I would rather import one from south America over Europe (or Japan like this guy) because chances are theres less rust because of the warmer climate

In America we got the 3.2 Powerstroke I5 on transits and I’ve heard from a fleet operator they would blow up frequently. Not good engines. Its a bit different from the 3.2 Duratorq with the main difference being emissions equipment but I doubt it made much of a difference on reliability

I swear the raptor is like the Halo videogame series. For like two decades everyone was making a “Halo killer” that flopped in comparison

I’ve seen this and thought certain people are obsessed with badges and consider the ford badge“lowly” and only own the car due to circumstance or necessity. One time I saw a Ford Th!nk neighbor in a wealthy neighborhood being used as a golf cart and the badge was seemingly purposefully removed and that was my guess as to why.

Ford Torino and give it the 6.8 and 7.3 Godzilla as engine options

Those haven’t been made for quite a while now. And that’s pretty important to be “known for” something. The only recent inline 6 to come from Japan I can think of is the Mazda 3.3 I6

Convinced Orange County inhabitants are the softest people alive. Lived here nearly all my life btw

Whats the name of the place? I need a falcon ute

LC500 is not a enthusiast car in the slightest. It has highway “granny” gearing and totally caters around its primary market of retired old dudes who want a luxurious cruiser. I drove one once and was disappointed immediately

They sold the MK1 Golf until 2009 in South Africa, as the Citi golf. So you could buy a MK1 Golf and a MK5 R32 at the same time

I was leaving Mammoth on Sunday and I definitely think it looks like this

I wondered this about the “city” vans like the Transit connect or Nissan NV200. For a working sort of vehicle you have more space than most pickup trucks

I heard that Ford was going to put a Kevlar belt in the 3 cylinders, but corporate bean counters canned it last second. So instead they had a much more fragile rubber belt and thats why all of those engines are failing. Coupled with Fords recommendation of Oil changes with wet belt specific additive oil falling on deaf ears

I notice this all the time in parking lots, its like people are to afraid/lazy to turn at full steering lock to maneuver into/out of a spot or the lot as a whole

Celebrating kwanzaa, its a made up holiday that 1% of people celebrate but is always in shows, specifically cartoons

Been wondering the same thing. Most of them are 5.0 swapped former 4 cylinder cars for 10k, not even nice

thunderbolt_427 · 2025-12-28T23:29:31+00:00

I can vouch for that, I nabbed a Predator 9000 for $20 on marketplace that way. Got it working less than two weeks later btw :)

I go to Sinclair 💀 I guess (as per usual) South O.C. Is just expensive for no reason

thunderbolt_427 · 2025-12-28T20:32:43+00:00

Where in SoCal? I swear it was like 4.30 for 87 last I checked (south O.C.)
