1.6 Ecoboost van, 90% ready to pull the trigger
mrtn replied to mrtn's topic in Buying, Leasing, Ordering & Owner Impressions
I love winter driving but it was snowing so hard and wind changing direction twice per second that I could not spot the road reflector poles before a few feet away hoping I'd hit the next ones in the middle as well. Kept an eye on the navigation screen as well to anticipate a bend. -
Contact Paul Hayes in transit connect'ed facebook group. He seems to be doing fabrication work for Connects.

Right, such as railroad crossings that are not perpendicular etc.

Took a 2 hour trip in almost 4 hours: -
Mine's a cargo van as well. It is a bit firm compared to an old sedan with bias ply tires but exactly like any other compact to mid size car/SUV today. I say you try soft tires.
-
16" wheels and soft wall tires. No other cheap mods, I'm aftraid. Doesn't feel too firm to me at all.

Which bike? How does it fit?

For such a new car I would only check the air filter before taking it in together with Ford's own brochure and fuelly printout of other drivers' averages.

I need to do this. I bought the single heated seatless car in the whole country.

As my profile info says: 1.6 Ecoboost. The 2.5 litre Mazda four-banger is not available in Europe. The 2.5 in Focus is a 5-cylinder from Volvo. -
The shared Focus platform only covers Gen1 on both sides.

These new CANBUS vehicles behave differently from expectation in various electical conditions.

Wouldn't know, snow tires are mandatory here from Dec1 to March 31.

Just did 200+ miles of highway towing (60 mph, trailer + 600 lbs load, half way with just the trailer), averaged 17.6 mpg. -
Mine has a similar problem but only in certain temperatures. The dealership has tried to adjust it but with no actual success. The handle unlatches the door but it takes a serious pull to get the door moving.

This is my ski box but whose car is that???

There are plenty of compact 12V pumps available.
-
Oh wow.

33 or 33K?

Get an inflatable mat. You can stuff it anywhere when not in use. A soft enough foam mattress is way too thick.

You don't really need a store front in the internet era, just a nice webshop plus your outdoor activities.

Is that a heatpress there? I'm in sign supply business, heat presses and thermotransfer vinyl is a big part of it. The TC should be great for this kind of activities. Have you planned a wrap and signage already?
