You people really need to drive more......lol

I will have to check, but I just had this written down when we did out taxes. But, I think that my wife, daughter, and I did something like 47K last year combined as a family on our personal vehicles.

There’s definitely a benefit to having a take home car for work! That sucker gets about 20k miles per year. I really only drive the dually when we I tow the 5er.

All I did was get new summer tires put on last week and washed it yesterday. When I had the tires put on, the mileage was 93,195. Considering I bought it in Dec 19 and it had 50k miles on it then, I'd say we've driven it around the block a time or two. Even during COVID!

Darn, I was 6 miles too slow! I wasn’t paying attention . But hey, it’s still only 5,454 miles a year after 22+ of them.

Drove it home from the dealership after a 6 month wait for it to be built.

Our 2020 Ford Explore has 25000 miles on it and we have not done nothing. This car is wonderful pulling a trailer. No need to step up to a 6 cyl.

You have 2.3L Ecoboost 4cyl in yours correct? I have the same one in our 2021 Ranger. Amazing powerplant.

Ugh....filled up with 25 gallons of liquid gold for only $115.45. Need to plan a trip that goes down hill going there and back....with a tailwind.

Put in 25 gallons of diesel a day ago at the cheapest place I could find — it was over $152! We’re headed for your area and Grand Canyon soon — hope diesel is less there.

Ouch. That’s where having 79 gallons capacity comes in handy. I hope.

I increased the HP and torque on my 6.7 Power Stroke. Not the "preferred" way as the government would like but...ya know. It behaves better, breaths better and gets better gas mileage too.

Solved the problem of the flimsy dashboard cup holders with this aftermarket add-on. Fits like a glove and it will hold those travel mugs nice and stable. And less than $70.

Had to have it towed to the dealership, almost positive I got contaminated fuel last night. I put 15 gallons in and within 10 miles I noticed The truck was chugging. And then it went away got home checked a bunch of systems with the BANKS DataMonster, no codes whatsoever. On the way in this morning all the alarms went off service emissions limited power etc. the dealership thinks if they flush everything twice they might be able to deal with it that way. I called Circle K they appear to take it serious, the Woman that answer the phone took my information and called me back within 25 minutes. She informed me that loss prevention would be contacting me, said the diesel pumps were all bagged and the team was on the way to take samples. We’ll see how this turns out…

Might be due for an oil change!

Line-X bed liner installed today. Will install a bed rug over that and then a retractable tonneau cover on 4 May.
