Yeah spray in bedliner, trailer brake control and Class IV receiver hitch I'd order from the factory. When I think about car audio and what a pain it could potentially be, you are right HK system is more than enough. Sunroof is one option I have always, always enjoyed in my vehicles however...
Are the spray in bedliner, bed utility group, tonneau cover, class IV receiver hitch, Harmon Kardon Audio system, all weather floor mats and trailer brake gain controller best to order int he after market? Seems like you would want color, sunroof, rear gear set ratio and any suspension options...
One thing I don't actually know (although I have a MAJOR hunch about) if whether chronically driving on LOW oil levels is bad for the engine? Now before you roll your eyes, doesn't the ECU "instruct" the oil pump to distribute - as best it can - equal volumes of oil throughout the engine during...
I agree with a lot of the stuff said here. On Audi forums, its always a blown turbo, oil consumption or check engine lights. Without fail, when you do a little digging you find one of two "kinds" of Audi owners: a) some silly Accountant or Lawyer who buys the car purely for the key fob thinking...
I totally agree with that clean and full comment. I pound the you-know-what out of my Audi. Full throttle take offs several times per drive and zero issues with the turbo, interior of the engine is crystal clean after 80k miles and zero and I'm talking zero MILs. So this b/s of keeping the oil...
I gotcha. Yeah my own take is yes the thicker grades probably do "smooth out" engine noise overall. But the way I understood the lifter issue was that you want the thinner grade. Note: if I were doing HD use I'd go heavy for a cycle for sure. I believe the issue is that when these things idle...
Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 5w20 comes up a lot. Anyone pound the you-know-what out of their hemi, or worse, sit idling for days!!!! and have no issues after putting in Pennzoil Ultra Plat?
Is there a generally regarded "best" oil for the 5.7 engines? I know for Audi you should run (not walk) from what the dealer's use and only ever use Motul 8100, amazing oil that's also cheaper than the more well marketed brands. Anyways, any pro star hemi heads out there that swear by a...
I know the exact truck you have. DAM that's a slick rig. For me I flip flop between your truck, the black LTDs or LHorns without the body colored bumper, and then white ones with the body colored bumper. Is tricoat white some specialized white or is it just a marketing gimmick?
What's the consensus on the body colored bumper? I like it but I will admit to liking the full chrome look on the LTDs and LHorns. It's sharp and seems to suit the truck. The only way I would eat the cost of the body color bumper is with a white one. I would skip on the tricoat ivory white and...
Ok thanks. A/s is a standard option on the LTD in my local market. You have to pay a fee to get it deleted and replaced with coils. I'd never do that because in my mind that would be stupid even if, down the road, the system would be needing for some expensive repairs. The only actual experience...
Sorry and to clarify the issue further, let's remove money and functionality from the discussion. IF I was to ask PURELY which Gen 5 suspension set up, coils or a/s had the "Superior" ride quality, which would it be. And feel more than free to outline what "Superior" even is to yourself.
Sorry but that's a complex, long winded response. I don't mind the length mind you...but the complexity was a bit much. Only words I understood were MONEY and "Not even close in fact" in connection with the other incumbents. What is "freshening"??? NO CLUE what you mean by that. None in fact.
Is this air suspension system a soft cushy ride or a hard firm ride? Roads in my area suck...massive pot holes, lotta expansion joints, train tracks...cracks. I feel like the a/s would be smoother in this environment but now I'm not sure. I read one reviewer who said it was "crashy" compared to...
Wow what's Open Pilot? My GV80 has the stuff where it drives itself but this sounds even better. But yeah if you option up a Laramie then might as well get a LTD. A/S in Gen 5s is apparently way more durable and reliable than Gen 4.
