  1. good thing the pup is not a heavy load, 3300lbs max and i problibly wont even know its there I got the extended warranty we shall see what happens
  2. there is only 1 part number for a transmission cooler per ford parts website now more important question is users guide( yes I am reading it) says to not tow a trailer for the first 1,000 miles yet later on in the same section it says When Towing a TrailerDo not drive faster than 70 mph (113 km/h) during the first 500 miles (800 kilometers)I might be able to drive 500 miles before our next trip in February, but then again might not.... I am a little concerned
  3. I was just looking/ researching and found the part numbers for the Trans cooler, just for giggle and grins i popped the hood and welp, the truck already has the cooler installed with the brackets and holders and lines so now I am researching if it has the upgraded sway bar, if so I got the towing package on this truck and the window sticker does not reflect it may need to go get the build sheet from the dealer as i dont want to pay $17 for it online
  4. at last check i had 14 bands that i could manage in MDE
  5. i just saw they updated a price, and they think its a manual... .nope nope nope, its an auto.... ugh dealers
  6. I did that, i had an amazon credit so it was $8 shipped after driving it for 2 days i gotta say i really like it, I put the kids and wife in it last night and we went to outback steakhouse got to practice parking it more as its much longer and wider than my old TV the backup camera and the radar stuff really is trick I did see my xterra on the lot, but they have not put a price on it yet, its sitting next to a BMW 328i that is the same year 2007, with 2,000 less miles on it and they have the BMW at $8500 and that seems low to me for a BMW we shall see where they price it at as they gave me $6
  7. yea Ill just drop it off at my dad's hes the electronic/ mechanical guy I have no clue how to solder but it may be a good time for a lesson
  8. well then, I was going to sell the Tekonsha P3 but after reading that, ill just install it in the same spot and make it work and save me $200 or 100 if you count the sale of the older controller
  9. Thanks, I had this color on my mind before i saw yours, and with it being a 2015 in 2016 picking were getting slim. I knew i didnt want red, black, silver or white so that left 3 options for colors and of those remaining the dealer had 2 Blue Jeans and Magnetic my old SUV was blue and it was time for a change so easy decision speaking about the brake controller, reflash? I assumed it would be plug and play
  10. no thats another option for $175 and I already had a P3 so the option package that mine has is 302A and that includes the hitch installed at the factory when that is done it also includes The Class IV Trailer Hitch Includes: • 4-pin/7-pin wiring harness • Class IV trailer hitch receiver • Smart Trailer Tow Connector The $695 Trailer tow Package includes: 4-pin/7-pin wiring harness • Auxiliary transmission oil cooler • Class IV trailer hitch receiver • Engine oil cooler (3.5L V6 Ti-VCT only) • Smart Trailer Tow Connector • Upgraded front stabilizer bar ​So the differences are Auxiliary tr
  11. What Xterra? The main reason I got t rid of it, is Nissan killed the Xterra this year, no more, so I was worried about value as I knew parts would be made for 7 years... The only thing I miss on ththe Xterra is parking it... The f150 is much larger, much much larger
  12. so yea this happened today 2015 f150 Super Crew 2.7 L ecoboost 302A option pacage only thing that i wanted it to have was the trailer tow package, however the only thing this is missing from that are 3 things, a trans cooler( i can add if needed) 3.73 gears, is has 3.31 I think and finally a stronger string stabilizer bar and if it had those it would go from a max tow of 7600lbs to 8100 so not much lost in my book seeing that my pup is 3300 lb max
  13. um last time i was there the firetruck was walled off. I dont think its there anymore yup just found the article saying it was closed/ walled off in April of 2015, we were there in December 2015 to do the Disney CC picture and its all gone and walled off http://allears.net/tp/ep/e_innov.htm
  14. good thoughts RTGUY I work for a medical company and know of no employee discounts for vehicles. working with the family friend I am basically getting d plan pricing on the trucks that i am looking at in addition to the rebates D plan is A/Z plan +$100 and then rebates can be applied for example, MSRP is $39,205, D-plan is $34,776 and then there are $5050 in rebates so $29,725 then -5750 for trade and add back in tax tag and title and were at $26,275 not too bad for an almost $40,000 truck The reason why my current deal is higher is because I saw the truck with the 302A option group vs 301,
  15. you hit the nail on the head! then again did you just get one?! I looked and and drove a 15 super crew rwd 2.7 TT with the 302 A and trailer tow package It stickered around $42,500 the rebates are currently $5050 and they are offering $5750 for my trade The kicker for me is a family friend owns a dealership about 1200 miles away, so a simple call to him got me the numbers i needed to know with out asking the dealer( the invoice) So far that has worked well for me as the deal as it sits( cause i am thinking about it) is my Xterra and a check for $30,000( includes tax tag title and dealer fees)
  16. I added an intake, did the exhaust, upgraded the shocks to bilsten 5100's, put firestone airbags, replaced the stereo with one that connects to the iphone/ ipod, all new speakers it looks stock unless you know where/ what to look for its a 4x4 and they just are not as popular down here as they are up north. I honestly am expecting 6500-7500
  17. So the time has come, its time for the new truck! what I am going to buy is a 2015/2016 F150 Crew Cab 2wd with the 2.7 L v6 turbo I have started to play the dealer games and the truck sticker at $38,000 some have internet price as low as 33,000 before tax tag and title Exhibit A: http://www.sgallowayford.com/new/Ford/2015-Ford-F-150-f0ea3b6f0a0e0a173be2a2200010dfa3.htm?searchDepth=7:121 is it unreasonable to assume I may be able to get a 2015 for $30,000? I am trading i my Xterra, as well Nissan killed it this year its not going to be made and i don't want to see the value drop too muc

  19. I actually forgot to include the $200 statement credit on the first trip, but after the Annual fee for the Disney card it worked out to $150 so it was really $106.68/person per day for the first trip
  20. My last trip we purchased 3 AP, stayed 3 nights, did the MVMCP( but didnt pay for it,gift from mom) we had $1857 in expenses, the bulk (over $1100) was the AP's $425 for 3 nights in a preferred site $80 at Via Napoli $40 at T-rex $30 in souvenirs $40 in gas and $125 in groceries comes out to $116/person/ day Our next trip is in February I have 2 nights booked at $210 we already have tickets I anticipate $120 for Disney meals $40 for gas $125 in groceries and $30 again in souvenirs That puts us at $535 for the weekend trip Or $44.58/ person/ day I alternate my shopping between Publix and
  21. I got $200 statement credit when i signed up for the Disney Visa, I could be wrong but you earn 2-3% cash back on purchases so 200 to open the account and then 3% of $7000 is $210 so there would be over $400
  22. Good to hear! It comes in that Brown/ sand color and it would match my trailer perfectly. Did you also get the pro- trailer backup assist? it looks nifty if you did get it check it out
  23. Taken December 12th. I didn't notice any lights out on it while I was there Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. I was there last week, a full 2 weeks prior to the holiday and there was a cart parade that did go in and out of all the loops, rather annoying with all the honking while I was trying to enjoy dinner with the family.
