It's more accurate that it wasn't designed for that level of compression and turbo, and they made material substitutions that harmed the durability and functionality. So.
It's based on the Mazda L engine, which was a cast-iron block, and became the Duratec engine. So this engine started life as...
The 2.3 wasn't designed from the ground up to be turbo'd, it was an addition and a redesign. It's a strap-on solution. The 2.7 with CGI block was made to be what it is, and take the compression, heat, and abuse of a turbo. I prefer having an engine designed to do what it do from the start. I'll...
For that matter, people complaining about towing and troubled by the soft offroad suspension could steal this. https://www.thedrive.com/news/30092/next-gen-ford-f-150-raptor-will-ditch-leaf-springs-get-coil-spring-suspension-report
Edit: You could also theoretically drop-swap for 5500lbs...
Marketing material says they're all water-resistant. All the electronics, all the switches, they're supposed to be sealed with silicone. How much that gets you IRL is a little harder to say.
Edit: Since people don't search, source from Ford. Under "High Tech Interior."...
Good news! BBotE comes ready to drink, and it's tasty hot or cold. The method of extraction gives it more caffeine and better taste, since the dude who invented it made it for his diabetic friend. Bad news, it's $25 for a single 375mL bottle, with I think slight discounts for returning the...
Not a fan of Death Wish; they sacrificed the flavor on a dark altar and I'm not a fan. Now, Black Blood of the Earth coffee, I like. ... They offer supercritical liquid nitrogen vaccuum extracted Death Wish with MOAR caffeine, but - again, not into the flavor.
Eh, maybe it's more complicated than think and it'd be hard to do a la carte. I'm getting the washout interior, but I'm fine with it being only on select trims. Seems like NBD to me as long as everyone can get it on a budget trim and an expensive trim. I do hope there's at least two choices of...
From what I can see, it depends on your definition of "removable." And your definition of "hand tools." It'll probably take a little work with something that spins and cutss if you don't want a new dash.
1. Arming for hitch-mounted jet engine.
2. Ground-penetrating radar and metal detector for prospecting, displayed on information console.
3. Dramatic chariot spikes.
4. Retractable steps (for tripping people).
5. Dramatic fog machine and rave lights.
6. Cake dispenser, no lie.
I kinda hope they are marketing to people who buy once. This might be the only new car I ever buy, and the last car I buy. ... So maybe I might have bought motorcycles I don't even have a place to put them, when I maybe couldn't exactly "afford" them... But cars? BIFL. Hell, I'm about to buy a...
