  1. As much as I don't like the factory installed Cross Contact LX Sport tires, they have less than 3,000km of use. So it's not a high priority right now. I just like planning things well in advance. ?
  2. I converted my media library to FLAC format years ago using Media Monkey for windows. I use the Media Monkey app and Android Auto for playback in the car. I haven't played a CD in years. No need to.
  3. These are on my radar: The Scorpion Verde All Season Plus II Very quiet and gets great reviews.
  4. Sorry to see you go but good luck with the Escape.
  5. Gains of 8-12 HP more likely if done under controlled conditions using a stock vehicle.
  6. I tried it a couple of times when I first bought the car and haven't since. I have yet to try the park assist. I still prefer to rely on my driving skills and maintaining an awareness of my surroundings when I drive. It might just be the result of survival skills I've learned from several decades of owning street bikes.
  7. Something else to consider when tightening fasteners. Torque Wrenches are calibrated to be the most accurate at the middle range and the least accurate at the top and bottom of their range. I have 3 of them for that reason. The largest is rated at 250 ft/lbs and is the one I use for the 162 ft/lb spec.
  8. Ditto in my neck of the woods today. The transmission in my Malibu was a little slow shifting this morning.
  9. 1960 Fairlane 1966 mustang coupe 289 (first car) 1967 LTD 2 door hard top 390 1969 galaxy 500 302 1986 Cougar LS 5.0 2012 Focus Titanium 5 door (POS) 2012 Mustang GT (current) 2019 Nautilus Reserve (current)
  10. Do you live on Prince Edward Island? I cant think of any other province that would have so few. We have 4 dealerships in my city.
  11. Looking good. How's the mold holding out?
  12. Not a good idea. This article explains it nicely: Why You Should Never Use Straight Antifreeze In Your Car or Truck
  13. Maybe this will be of help: 3.5, 3.7 Crank Pulley Install
  14. Well you're definitely qualified to install them.
  15. Those links are 6 months old. The Edge is going nowhere before 2023.
  16. Count me in on pic #2 for the win. All bias aside ?
  17. I went the canned tune and CAI route on my Mustang looking for that instant gratification only to be disappointed in the results. It took a PD supercharger and lots of? to get the desired results. The Eco boost platform on the other hand as all kinds of potential, the 3.5 NA not so much. I'd put that money in an Edge Sport/ST savings account.
  18. Oh I do understand the function of the cooling system and what a thermostat does. I also understand life at -30 Celsius. Maybe you're from the deep south where it's not as relevant.
  19. They control air flow to the radiator so of course they will have an effect on cooling and heating.
