Update !!!!!!!!!!!
I think the POS has a broken flex plate plus a bad injector or bad fuel regular because it won't hold fuel pressure . I said f'it and drank a 6 pack ......:wall::wall::wall:

My truck spent Aug 6 - 29 at the dealer looking for the problem.
Took it in after Xmas with CE light , said it was my battery (it got low n toss a code)
I said that sounds like a big scoop of bull shit . They cleared it , n on my way ...
7-8 weeks later , lights on a again.

They tell me there was moisture in my oil.
This is a new truck... the oil change fixed the problem. I said you guys don’t have 2 clues , n that makes no sense .


The light comes on again.
Snap , I lose it .
I take it in there n tell them I’m done fucking around, I’m sick of the bull shit answers I’m getting , and it seems like your trying to run my warranty out. Well guess what, I don’t drive it much n that’s not going happen. Fix it now n fix it right or I’ll never buy another truck here again (up until this truck I use to only run them for 2 years)

On aug 1 they tell me I need new injectors n they will order the parts n get it in.
Was there till aug 29th

I got a book from what parts they changed after that. Would have been cheaper to just put a new engine in it .

We had quite the light show last night, we don't get thunderstorms that often. Even had a tornado on the other side of the valley. Just when I thought it had blown through it built up again and flat out dumped on us. No tilling the garden for a couple days, guess I'll watch football and racing today.

Sunday roast lamb rolled in oregano, lemon thyme, rosemary and stuffed with garlic. Herbs and garlic are home grown, I keep my herb game strong!

I can’t put the roast veg in with the meat because Mrs DD has stepped up here quest for veganism. Can’t even cook them in the same oven, the things you do for love and she has convinced me to eat vegetarian 4 days a week. Or should I say 4 times a weak :-?.

That roast looks awesome!
Mrs. Stoool got me to eat a more plant-based diet, and I've gotta say, it ain't bad and I feel a lot better.
We still eat meat -- in fact, last night we ate at a great wood-fired pizza joint and had a "grand salami" with extra cheese. :twisted:

My youngest daughter is like your wife and says that meat taints other foods that it comes into contact with.
lol
She won't even eat vegetable soup if I use chicken broth as the base. :dunce:

Does that effect the resale.... I mean it shows up on the car fax report right ??? If so that really sucks.... Did they offer an explanation on moisture in the oil. Ohh wait it was the injectors right.

They offered nothing about the oil, the injectors didn’t fix anything, then fuel rails , till every part that had something to do with fuel was replaced . Even had to reprogram my keys when they changed the comp.
This is my 3rd ecoboost 3.5 n the 1st time I’ve had a problem (first time I’ve got one past 60000km), I'm going to the 5.0 in the summer when the warranty is up. Just debating N/A or Roush
The smart answer is N/A , but the Roush makes some nice numbers .

what I did today... I hurt my neck early this year falling off a motorcycle, and put on a little weight while I was out of commission, not a lot, but enough, so I went on "the beer diet" yesterday, and will likely end it after today... I've been smoking the last of my hickock haze by gps all day, and with nothing but beer, i am really hungry right now... hungry and buzzed... and high... I also helped a friend hang their plants up for drying...

I recommend ravioli. Also, if you go to butchers you may be able to buy 1/2 a pig for cheaper than going to store.

I went to the bar that 86'ed me and had a nice time. Just acted like nothing happened previously and we worked it out. Ok.

I yanked out the volunteer gourd plants I transplanted into the veggie garden, got two little white pumpkins and a small yellow one. I thought I would have had more with the size of the plants. Refilled the beer shelf and watched football the rest of the day. Grilled pork chops and tomatoes with cottage cheese and possibly a grilled potato for dinner. B&S time was awhile ago...lol.

I got a "new" 2018 F150 off the lot in Feb (12 miles on the odo) , MSRP was 52 - got it for 37. She's got the coyote 5.0 engine & will flat out scoot.
Just got back from Moose hunting with a king quad (Black Betty) in the back + 500 lbs of meat & all my gear. 1250 miles round trip averaging almost 21 MPG.
Going around slower rigs uphill on the truck lanes @ 90 with lots more under the petal is fun. :wink:

Coyote? Is that the "Cleveland" version of the 5.0

Sounds nice!
