husky vs weathertech floor
I have Weathertech in my truck and I got Husky for my wife's SUV. I like the Husky better and they were cheaper. Be careful buying Weathertech, there are a lot of counterfeits out there. Weathertech advises you to only buy them from their authorized dealers. -
ABS light comes on
It will be cheaper since they won't have to remove an axle to replace it.- TMyers

ABS light comes on
I just went through this with my 2013 4X4 CTD with 140K miles. I replaced everything while I was into it. You can "Get By" with just changing the one, but both sides are worn in a 9-year-old truck. Is your truck 2WD or 4WD?- TMyers

Batteries suddenly fail
Cold weather will finish off a weak battery. However, you should be getting better service than two years.- TMyers

Yet Another Clogged Heater Core
I flushed mine three times. The first two times I did it with the water hose and an air compressor. The last time, I pulled both lines and rented a submersible pump and did a mixture of hot water and radiator cleaner in a tub. I put the pump in a pillowcase and ran it both directions for over...- TMyers

Dealership turned off dashcam before service
Ford tech told me that he disconnects the radio/phone. He said it was aggravating when people were sitting in the waiting room and their car's Bluetooth broadcast their conversations while he was trying to work. And I don't blame the tech for turning off the camera. If I mash my finger, I...- TMyers

2021 Laramie 2500 Cummins won't start after Diesel Pre-Heat
This is what I was typing as I got a message that someone else had posted. The grid heater and the cooler temps drained the failing batteries.- TMyers

Battery replacement recommendations
The OP stated his truck was a 2017 and this is the first time changing the battery. Meaning he got at least 7 years use out of the OEM battery. I believe I would replace the battery with exactly the same battery it had in it. Climate, accessories and driving habits all contribute to battery...- TMyers

Replaced Heater and Evaporator Cores
It was an intimidating job to say the least. Two hours in, the sight of my entire dash laying in my front seat and wondering if this thing would ever run again was a little overwhelming! But in the end, 4 hours later, my truck was back together with heat and no smell of antifreeze in the cab. I...- TMyers

2022 6.7 Diesel Oil consumption
I have a 2013 with 144K and it's never used any oil. I also change my oil every 5K miles. I know what Cummins says, but I don't care. Fleetguard filters and Rotella T4 Dino oil.- TMyers

How do I remove this stuck nut on battery connector?
Makes sense. Take the new battery out of your way and cut it off if you have to. Get a good hold to it and the nut may thread past the staked end. Worst case, cut it all off and replace the whole terminal.- TMyers

How do I remove this stuck nut on battery connector?
First, I would take the terminal off of the battery to work on it. I wouldn't want to crack or bust my battery by stressing it. See if you can get a pair of vise-grips on the square end then you should be able to wrench off the nut. Lastly, get a good fitting wrench and throw that adjustable...- TMyers
