Yeah. I'm talking about Swva. The redneck section.

Right at $2 a gallon here in North Carolina. In South Carolina and Virginia it's below $2 a gallon.

No problem with kuhmo tires here. I run them on several of my vehicles.

This. ^^. Also, on the earlier models ( I had an 09 before my current 2023), I replaced the factory rotors and pads with some decent aftermarket parts and never has another brake problem. Most people experience repeated brake problems because they take it to the dealer and the dealer uses the same crappy parts..

Mines never worked either, iPhone 5s. I just use the aux input instead.

I realized the err of my ways after posting. Yes, maybe a little, but certainly not enough to offset the cost of the wheels. Kinda like paying $300+ for a K&N air intake. Not worth the price.

Thank you for that. Printing it out for when it gets bad enough to have to take it in.

Awesome to hear!! Happy owners unite!!!!

No, it would not affect your mileage going to an aluminum wheel.

Sounds like an electrical issue. Bad alternator. Flaky power causes all kinds of mysterious issues on todays computer controlled cars. I hope they get it fixed.

It's the italian translation.

Technically you are correct but us old folks still refer to them as hubcaps....lol

Welcome to the forum. Personally I wouldnt waste money on a new intake. Factory one flows pretty well and the only thing it will do for you is make a cool sound.

Yeah that ^^ Lock up converter effectivy "locks" the converter so there is no slippage.

Standard features is what comes on the standard model. Then you can have optional features added. i.e. you could have a base model with optional wheels installed. Take a picture of your wheels and post it here that way we can make bloody sure what you have. If you have steel wheels with hub caps, the hubcaps are held on by the lug nuts, but it you remove the lug nuts and the wheel, the plastic hub cap will come off. On aluminum wheels, there is no hubcap. It's all wheel. On the chrome clad aluminum wheels, yes there is a plastic chromed cap over the aluminum, but it is not removable without a ton of work. It is epoxied to the aluminum. So, you have 3 choices: steel wheels with hub caps, aluminum wheels, or chrome clad aluminum wheels.

Steel wheels need hub caps (normally). Aluminum wheels are styled without the need for hub caps. Steel wheels with hubcaps are usually found on the base models of any vehicle.Steel is cheaper than aluminum. The higher you go up in trim level results in higher quality aluminum wheels. Right up to the much sought after plastic chrome clad aluminum wheels. As to which is better? Personal preference. Steel rusts, aluminum corrodes. Aluminum is lighter though. Steel: Aluminum:

Welcome to the forum!

No but feel free to search the Internet.

Everyone will have different opinions. Kinda like asking what is the best tire, or best paint color. I'm a magnaflow person. Can't stand flowmaster.

You don't put fruit in beer!! Unless you like those girl drinks. ; )

I don't have issue filling, just getting it completely full.

Most all vehicle manufacturers use chrome plastic clad wheels instead of real chrome. Ford has them on their top of the line king ranch F-150, a $65,000 truck. Had them on my 2005 Dakota. They've been doing it awhile. Believe it or not, they hold up better than true chrome and if you do happen to damage one, you can replace the cover instead of replacing the whole wheel. Dee, you paid over $30k for a base SE?

Really though. The battery is not that hard to get to should you need to. We had the original battery in our 09 when we traded it in last year. I just replaced the battery in my truck. It was a 3 year battery and had a date of 2008 on it, so that Walmart 3 year battery lasted almost 6 years. You should not be so concerned as to question the purchase.

It's a lifetime battery. Just keep your car plugged in every night.

Seriously. You got an owners manual?
