Thanks for delivering this news to me Aaron, feeling like I got gut punched. Ernie was always a standout source of knowledge, kindness, and honesty. Despite not being active here recently I still think about him every time I wash my truck because I changed my washing technique after he posted...
I read on another forum that these trucks can make a beep sound if a dash light goes out-- I did have an airbag light on before and I'll have to double check but I think perhaps it has gone out now... Is this true? Do these trucks been sporadically when a dash light goes out?
Hey folks smilieFordlogoAnyone aware of another buzzer/beeper in these trucks aside from the door chime? I'm getting an intermittent beeping that sounds like a continuity test on a multi-meter-- beeps vary in length from very short to sometimes drawn out, and it seems to be driven by driving...
It seems to me that some of the online sellers can get me another few years for less than a grand. That's a Ford branded ESP that covers all the same stuff as my factory warranty-- cheap insurance policy.
Hey folks, I recall a long while back that one or more of you recommended buying ESP online as opposed to through my dealer (honestly it was probably Brad that told me this).I'm thinking I might buy ESP for the mustang, warranty is running out in a month. Is this a sound thing to do? Exactly...

Just thought of a couple more-- completely forgot about the 4x4 system. Obviously you should check functionality of the 4x4 system as best you can. There are 2 main components that need to function for 4x4 to work correctly: the transfer case and the hub lockouts.- Hubs: If the truck has auto...
Welcome! Sounds like you've picked a really nice truck. Things to check for on this particular truck:- An automatic trans for that year should be the E4OD, and while it's not a bad transmission, some of them can start to develop issues around the 150-200k mile range. That said, many guys have...
Damn this is really an awesome build. Would be a fantastic weekend truck for picking up lumber at the hardware store and hauling stuff to the dump. Bertha does this for me now but not nearly as well.
