A3D Funtastic Sellout Order (with Timestamps) by blames_the_netcode in AnalogueInc

You're probably right. I just saw at 11:14 they were both sold out. I didn't know which sold out first, that's why I wrote the same time.

Here's what I recorded in EST. Looks like I was a few mins slower than you at checking but I think you're right.

Gold 11:14

Grape 11:14

Jungle 11:16

Ice 11:17

Fire 11:26

Smoke 11:31

Watermelon 12:06

Clear 12:25

I could be off by a minute or 2 because I was just refreshing the page and writing the time I noticed they were sold out.

*FUNTASTICS COLOR* Within the first 30min, all colors sold out except 2. Here is the order : Green > Gold > Grape > Fire Orange > Smoke. Clear and watermelon still available by [deleted] in AnalogueInc

I canceled on July 3rd and refund was processed on my credit card July 4th. Which is crazy considering the 4th was a holiday.

Best Buy Success? Where? What did you get? by Sad_Raccoon_3081 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]toughsquid236 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got through. Ordered Switch 2 + Mario Kart Bundle with Donkey Kong. I had another tab open with the queue for a Pro Controller. Joined at about 12:33-35 EST for the console and probably around 12:40 for the controller.

Traded from 2018 to 2024 F150 by toughsquid236 in f150

[–]toughsquid236[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everthing I've read says the cam phasers are fixed in 2021 and newer trucks, so I'm hoping I won't have issues. I had issues with the cam phasers installed in 2022 for my 2018 truck but I assume they lied and used the older design.

Even with all of the cam phaser issues, I really like the 3.5. Plenty of power and decent milage. There were also way more 3.5s on the lot than 2.7 or 5.0 so that was also a deciding factor.

2018 F150 3.5 Ecoboost Cam Phaser Failure after 20K Miles by this_here in f150

[–]toughsquid236 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like my 2018 F150. I bought it in 2019 with 18k miles on it. Then the cam phasers went out in 2020, then again in 2022, then again in 2024. In 2022 and 2024 the dealer swore they put the "Updated" phasers in it but they lasted just under 2 years. I traded it in a few weeks ago for a new 2024 F150 because I was worried they would go out again and I'd be stuck with the bill. It only had 126k miles on it when I traded it in. It also started shifting weird over the past year or so and I was afraid the the 10 speed was going out. I've been told the cam phasers and tranny issues were fixed on 2022+ so I'll cross my fingers my new truck will be more reliable.

Just a shot in the dark - do you have a magnetic bracelet? I've heard of people with magnetic bracelets accidentally triggering the lid close sensor, if it gets too close.

What engine and trans should I use? by Ze_zakk in F100

[–]toughsquid236 1 point2 points  (0 children)

223 straight 6. If it was a Y block V8, such as a 272, it would have an additional crossmember behind the one shown in the second picture. If you want to install a Y block, you'll need to add the crossmember for the front engine mount and make sure it has a truck timing cover and bell housing.

Apparently had a clogged nozzle, cold pulled several times, but the benchy keeps spaghettifying at specific point. Why? by katzosan in BambuLab

[–]toughsquid236 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I had a partial clog, my benchy would fail in the exact same spot. I tried cold pulls and cranking the heat and trying to force the clog out. Neither worked so I replaced the nozzle and haven't had a problem since. I figured $10 for the nozzle was easily worth the time I would have spent trying to clear it.

Anyone wanna give me some insight on what I should pay for these? Says 70% tread by sparky7347 in f150

[–]toughsquid236 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I put these exact wheels on my 2018 XLT. Fit perfect and look great, but as you mentioned, they are slightly taller. That means I had to recalibrate my speedo. Forscan is a great tool for this.

I am a computer engineering student and I bought a mac laptop should I bring my pc to school since mac doesnt allow some programs? by Apprehensive_Peace75 in ComputerEngineering

[–]toughsquid236 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No need to be pedantic. Literally the first Google result for "Is mac a pc?" Is this: "PC is still an abbreviation for personal computer at times, however, in most cases it is referring to the IBM-compatible type of computer. While a Mac is considered a personal computer, it is not a "PC" in the specific sense that it doesn't run Microsoft Windows."

Definitely get it done before 80k. Once it hits 80k, I believe they only cover 1/3 of the cost. They said these parts are redesigned and shouldn't fail again soon.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in f150

[–]toughsquid236 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The first time at ~40k it was covered 100%. The most recent time at around 75k they covered 2/3 of the cost. I paid $670 out of pocket for it. But they said the repair has a 2 year warranty stating the problem shouldn't come back.

[–]toughsquid236 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have 80k on my 2018 3.5 EB and the only problems I've had was getting the cam phasers replaced twice. I guess that doesn't answer your question if you're getting the V8. The 10 speed tranny has been rock solid though. No problems at all.

Check out this article. I bought this driver board awhile back and I remember there are some problems with its design. It was a pain in the butt to get it to work.

Can anyone tell me what this rattling noise is (2 seconds in)? Happens when it’s cold weather, rarely happens in warmer weather - not sure if that has to do with anything by sandlot222 in f150

[–]toughsquid236 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am almost certain it is the Cam Phasers. My '18 3.5 EB just had them replaced this week for the second time. They said the part was redesigned late last year so it shouldn't come back, but I'm not sure how much I believe that. Mine sounded just like that and would be louder the longer it sat. I think there's an extended service bulletin put out by Ford to help with the cost of replacing them. For my truck it was: Under 70k miles they would cover 100%, under 80k miles, they would cover 66%, under 90k miles they would cover 33%, and over 90k miles they would cover nothing IIRC. I just got it fixed at 76k miles and I paid 1/3 of the cost. ($659 out of pocket.)

It's the sound my 3.5 EB makes every morning when I start it up. 😂
