    NEW TURBO BAD

    After a two hour trip back home from NYC the other day (no trailer), the truck started acting up about five miles from the dealership....called ahead and the mechanic met me outside to go for a ride and witness the problem first hand. They called the Ford hotline who said to replace the EBP...

    NEW TURBO BAD

    I got my X back on Friday, pulled the TT up to Maine (360 miles one way) for the weekend and the turbo problem is almost fixed. No issues like before, but after pulling for about an hour, the turbo would take quite a bit of time to spool up and give me some power. I'm talking as much as 45...

    Driveline vibrations

    Hey all, Got some driveline vibrations that started a couple thousand miles ago when the driveshaft u-joints went out. At the time, the vibrations were at 30+ mph. After replacing the u-joints, I'd only get the vibrations at 65+ mph. I've had all four wheels balanced and it didn't fix...

    Excursions, why buy anything else?

    The X does it all for us (2 and 2 plus 1 more in August). While admiring my truck, a friend asked if there was anywhere the X wouldn't go. I just told him "only my garage." The look on folks' faces when hearing my reply to their "sucks to fill it up" comments are priceless! No one can...
