  1. i thought the edge was a stretched escape too. thanks for the info.
  2. been looking at the lincoln corsair reserve, either new or a couple years old. people say they are built on the escape platform , but i think they are the closest thing to an edge you can buy now. a nautilous is larger . the 2 have the same wheelbase and basic underpinnings. so why dont you talk about the corsairs here. as far as i can see they are an expensive edge that will be gone this year. any comments will be appreciated. irv toms ps- doesnt look like i would be gaining a lot over my 19 loaded titanium with the elite package except miles . i have 57,000 miles on it.
  3. WOW ! what motor are you using this on? a 2.0 ? thats a 2 qt. filter used them on my fe stuff in the 60's. bringing up an old thread.
  4. snap on has sockets, impact and standard that grip the whole nut, no just the edges . they work great for thi application !!
  5. they help light up the ditches on the sides of the road. im surprised the hid's are pretty good .will still replace the bulbs with night stalker osrams. worked better than stock in my 13 limited . ordered the download from 4d tech. dont have forescan. will raise the lamps just a bit.
  6. do you leave all those plastic closeout that are underneath the late model edges,? i live in the salt belt of illinois. my 13 had only 2 that ran along the rockers. my 20sel hides everything. went to change the oil and couldnt figure out where i was gonna put the hoist arms. probably not gonna put the engine undercover back on. suck more heat away. do they think we are gonna save that much in mileage? just my rant , what do you guys do with all that dirt and snow catcing plastic crap?!!
  7. i spent ov4 45 years fixing deer hits. wanna see both ways.. have used it on 5 vehicles.
  8. i know its not legal but does anyone run their foglamps with high beams ? ive been doing this for years with my trucks and mountaineers. makes a heck of a difference in visibility at night. my 20 sel is the first edge with fogs. i dont have forescan but there is a download from 4d tech. im not computer savvy and am old so a lot of stupid questions will be asked. had a 13 limited we loved. should have kept it. thank you ! irv ps- the f150 guys have always called this mod--bambi mode.
  9. just trying to see what you use in these motors. ive been using valvoline advanced in my other stuff. have a 16 F150 with a 5.0di motor too. nt trying to start an oil thread ,but had heard maybe pennz ulta platinum 5-30 might be a good choice for intake valves. thanks for any help. damn ford for taking away the 3.5!!
  10. was wondering if you can use 87 octane in the turbo motors. they call the 2.0 a premium fuel motor. was think about a 19 or 20. maybe rethinking keeping my 13 w/3.5. what do yo guys run. hope i could post this here. thank you--irv
  11. i really like my 13 and am wondering ,after reading all the problems, if i should kee what i have. cant get chrome wheels anymore and i dont like anything with blackouts. im old and old school. not even gonna gain much in mileage anprobably more problems than i want. been a ford guy all my life, but im startin g to lok at some gm sus's.
  12. have a 13 limited 3.5 that has given me NO problemc in 89000 miles. thinking about a 19 titanium , but hate 4 cyl motors, and havent read alot of good about the 2.0 reliiability . would i be better off with an st with the 2.7? dont need the performance, but drivtrainwise would i have more piece of mind ? thanks for any input. irv
  13. what do you use for long life and best usage? motorcraft, ngk-platinum, iridium ? thanks for any info.
