OMG. Reading 1970 Ford Maverick made me truly lol. When I worked with USDA we had a maverick as a work vehicle. The places we took thar car. ? And the steering. We never knew where it would take us. Thank you for the memory.
Do you just throw your fob into a purse or bag? I found I need to put my fob in a place where it won't get banged around by other stuff in the bottom of my purse. Otherwise I get the intermittent back hatch won't open.
Ford navigation tried to kill me once so I figured Ford Roadside assistance wasn't the way to go. But I thought I would ask the group. I ended up with AAA.
I did have the water pump replaced once. Otherwise, no problems. I don't even have the backup fog horn noise. I've been curious if those of us who pre ordered our sports have had less trouble. Or if it's just the luck of the draw.
Besides the recalls everyone has had, I have not had any issues. The only thing I would change on my OB is the towing capacity. I wish it had just a bit more.
I had a 2001 escape. First one delivered to my area. First year for them. I loved that vehicle. When I sold it, it was 15 years old and had 378,000 miles. She was the reason I had no hesitation on buying a first model year Sport.
I just got my first flat tire. My husband passed 14 months ago, so I had a go of it myself. I could do everything but loosen the lug nuts. Luckily a nice young gentleman stopped to help. I noticed Ford Roadside assistance stops at 5 years/60,000 miles. I'm at 64,000. You can still call, but...
Yes. I did the embark test. I also did it on one of my old dogs. I swore he was a mix of a border Collie and some shepherd type dog. Ha. He was chow, springer spaniel and poodle. That explained the crazy fur.
Not sure about Australian Shepherds and loyalty. Andi is, in order most to least, Australian Cattle dog, Rottweiler, miniature Australian Shepherd, Border Collie and Great Pyrenees. She looks like an Aussie, but acts like a Border Collie. She was the only one of this color in her litter...
