Is your center console a glass boat? If I were to do the ultimate floor I would have done thick aluminum sheet which would last forever but the wood will last the next 15 years. My next trolling boat will have an aluminum floor from the factory. And will probably be a Hewscraft if I can afford it by then.

 

I'm not, trying to get a few more years from mine..paid off 18 months ago and just under 100K, plus Cupcake needs something this year. Her Rav has about 170K

Not sure off my skull, it is a XLT 4 door 5 foot bed. I see no Ecobust logo anywhere. I do plan to hit the pedal at some point though..

 

The "DM" button (drive mode) is how you turn on sport mode.

My doors close fine in the cold, but a couple times the driver's power lock wouldn't work and I had to unlock it with the key. Apparently it's all part of the same TSB, but Ford still doesn't have a good fix.

 

Aluminum Starcraft (circa ‘86) so probably the aluminum floor would be worth more than the boat!

 

No ecoboost badges means either the crappy naturally aspirated V6 or the 5.0. You should be able to tell just by putting your foot down, but otherwise pop the hood and start counting!

 

PB Blaster on the door latch and the issue went away for me. I never brought it in for the TSB. Wife's car had the same issue and I solved it the same way.

My Ferd doesn't have the 'DM' button

 

I was talking with a salesman at Johnson Ford this weekend (outside of dealership I wasn't there shopping) and he said they are on the 18's and probably 19's and Ford can't figure it out for the life of them. Latest theory he heard was there is a wire somewhere that's getting moisture in it somehow on the trucks with the issue. As far as he knew they didn't have a fix though. I think their "Grease the hell out of it" tsb is an attempt to stop the moisture after they dry it out.

 

Hoping for the Coyote, I may have to see if I can turn the tires haha

 

Anyone else attending opening day for the 2018 World Series Chamipon Red Sox today?!

 

have fun

 

Wear plenty of layers

 

It's a tad chilly...

 

What's the temp there? It's 80s here today.

 

Don't worry about that haha.

Joking, it's high 30s low 40s overcast today. If you go back a page or two you'll see @Noelie84 pictures of a snowy parking lot from yesterday a little further up north.

 

Damn! I miss you fools, and I miss good fresh seafood, but I don't miss that.

Someone mail me half a dozen lobster rolls?

 

I see what's going on here... you made a terrible decision to move to the land of hot sauce and swamp ass and now you want us to bail you out and send you some good lobsta...

 

It's like the power lock motor doesn't even try if it gets cold enough. I can easily unlock/lock with the key so it isn't like there's any resistance. So far it's only been the driver's side and has only happened twice--both times, I parked outside the garage the night before.

 

Fixed that for ya!

 

It got watm enough for me to take off my jacket this afternoon. So there!




Besides, I'd be sweating if it was in the 80's here already.

 

80 isn't even warm. That's like almost warm enough to be pleasant.

I'll post here in August when it's 110* with 90% humidity. That's hot.

Y'all should come visit! There is a ton of great offloading around here.
