Whoever came up with that extractor set up is a genius

I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.

Man, that really sucks for that dude. I got about 10 pages in before I stopped.
I have to say that I have been extremely happy with my 2011 FX-4 with the ecoboost engine. So far with just over 40,000 miles, it has been flawless. I am averaging 17.5 to 18 MPG's with out trying very hard to save gas. (It's rather fun to punch it off the light). I towed a 850+ pound quad, three dirt bikes and a metric shit ton of camping gear on a big trailer from Elizabeth to Taylor Park and back and averaged 14 MPG's. On the other hand, I had a guy on another forum send me a PM asking me about mine and said he was getting WAY worse gas mileage than me. The discrepancies are a little concerning.
I would imagine that every singe truck model on the planet has had numerous engines blow up. Especially with the popularity of the light trucks such as the F-150, Tundra, 1500's, and what not, but this just flat out sucks for that poor dude. Hopefully Ford makes it right with him. I have to admit, as much as I love my truck, the thought of it going out of warranty is a little bothersome. Especially after reading some of that thread.
Maybe I need that F-250 after all, but I've been really happy with the ecoboost so far.

My 2012 F-150 Eco is a beast. I love the truck so far at 17K.
However, the driveline/rear-end is making a clicking and popping noise going in and out of D/R.
Its going in today for the diag....
