Just a quick question. Has Ford ever put a 5 cylinder engine in the F150 pickup? My niece's husband stopped by the other day on their way back home. They had just bought an Airstream down in Lake Worth, FL. I was asking him how the truck did and he told me that it did great, even though it was...

Just read an article with pictures of the replacement jack stands offered by Harbor Freight, for the ones that were recalled due to poor machining of the "ratchet post". This time they are failing at the weld in the upper web of the stand. It appears that there is no support strap tying the leg...

So it seems that the new 2021 Toyota RAV4 Prime is a remake of the Chevrolet Volt drive train! Yeah, they may have done it a little bit better by making it fast as well as 4 wheel drive, but it's basically the same principal. A series layout plug in hybrid with 43 miles of electric range. The...

Suggestions Please! No CVT, Two Rows will be enough, some storage capacity would be great. Toyotas seem overpriced in this category.

4 cyl turbo, I couldn't believe it. It was still pulling, but was getting to be a handful so I backed off. Don't bother sending the ticket in the mail, it was on federal land!

I've read many posts on this site about the old tried and true MB 229.5 requirement, some say it is a difficult standard to meet, others say not so much. I recently purchased a 2018 E300 with the gas turbo 4 cyl. It runs extremely well for a 4 cyl. and you'd swear it was a V6. It reminds me of...

I bought a used 2018 (7100 mi) Mercedes Benz recently that has the new I4 Turbo, which some say comes with a gasoline particulate filter. I realize that this more or less requires the use of low SAPS motor oil. However, the operators manual only specifies MB 229.5 and 229.6 approval ratings on...

I caught a glimps of this commercial on TV the other day, but didn't see the details. They are claiming that used, recycled oil is better than virgin feed stocks, and better for the environment (I agree with the last part). Has anyone tried this stuff yet? What are your opinions on this kind of...
