The 245/35/19 has a sidewall of 3.4 inches , The stock tire 215/55/16 has a side wall of 4.7 . In Vermont with dirt roads in the mix even the stock tire is vulnerable to tire and Rim issues . You must have the luxury of smooth roads. I saw the photo of your rig looks very nice.

Why Did My TC Come With a Cargo Divider?
G B L replied to DapperVan's topic in Accessories and Modifications
Sounds like there is some one in some part of the world that is saying I thought I ordered a cargo net where the xxxx is it !! -
Usually the people who are interested in the Eco Mode don't need a reminder and the rest buy a fast car with a thirsty powerful motor!!

40 years ago JC Whitney Use to sell a Color coded Vacuum gauge that mounts on the Dash board and when you put your foot into it hard it would go to Red as the Throttle opened , Showing you that you were using more gas. When you took your foot off the gas it would return to the green zone. It was Called the Econo Meter! This is the up dated version. Nice to see that things do not change as much as you would think. It also shows that Gimmicks that make you think you are saving gas are not new and are not going away.

Thanks for the information . I will have to run a tank of 93 through mine and see what happens .

The traction control on the Gen 2 can be switched off with the Steering wheel mounted control. Scroll through the settings and you can turn it off. The only issue is that it resets when you re start the TC.

My 2016 TC Wagon 1.6 on 19" Rims (also stock rims for sale)
G B L replied to DapperVan's topic in Wheels & Tires
Nice Looks like you got just what you wanted. It appears to me like your rig will not see much snow. -
The oil service message is for the engine oil not the trans. I changed the Transmission fluid at 26000 and it needed it.

Added my own Accessory Fuse Box
G B L replied to DonShockley's topic in Accessories and Modifications
If you are running a 2 K inverter you want to run both a positive and a negative Directly from the Battery and you need 2Gage or bigger wire with a fuse at the battery. If the you load the inverter and the engine is not running the battery will last less than 15 minutes. -
MPG while towing a motorcycle?
G B L replied to omniphil's topic in Cargo, Hauling, Towing & Upfit Packages
Yes they were, but you could overload it by 100% and not break it -
Have you been running 93 octane all the time? Have you ever run 87 if so could you tell the difference.

The seat is there, its is folded forward -
The stud size is M12X1.5 on both the 2010 and the 2014. The torque for the 2010 is 66Lbs and the 2014 torque is 100 lbs . The fact that the Gen 1 has 15 inch rims and the Gen 2 has 16 inch rims must have something to do with the difference in the spec. The most important thing is to use a Torque Wrench and re tighten the wheels a couple of times after changing a wheel.

Mustang nice to see you are well. It is in Vermont also

Big brother is in every body's business these days . If the tax is on HP only then you will not notice much of a difference. They should be able to maintain the torque and feel and still limit the Hp at the top. Take a test ride and make sure you like it. You seem to use your vehicles up completely so this is a long term purchase.
