    Shocked this hasn't sold already.

    Newer Vehicles ARE Monitoring Your EVERY Move

    Nope, graduated HS in the 90s. I just know that the value tied to data is much lower than what paranoid citizens think it is, unfortunately. I used to work for the government for a short period of time right after HS and had some involvement analyzing data. You'd be surprised how little of it...

    Newer Vehicles ARE Monitoring Your EVERY Move

    I've definitely read the book and completely understand the implications, which are minimal. I think you're overstating and tying in fantasy with reality. Again, not trying to be mean but I think the population has a very unreal value tied to their data. Most of your data is meaningless. The...

    Newer Vehicles ARE Monitoring Your EVERY Move

    I get it but I think if we really want to be upset about something it's the monitoring of our internet usage/traffic. I'm not too upset with the GPS data or even having cameras everywhere, what are they going to do with that? See how often I visit IKEA? But tailoring my internet experience is...

    Newer Vehicles ARE Monitoring Your EVERY Move

    Not trying to be mean here, but who cares? Everything you do is either on camera, recorded, tracked, etc. Why does this matter? You think GPS data isn't being tracked and sold?

    Magnaflow Cats or Cat delete and tune ?

    Had Magnaflow cats, no performance differences that I could see, however the real benefit is the cost. My cat was shot due to misfires and had to be replaced. Rather than spend 1k on OEM cats, I spent $200 on Magnaflow cats.

    Lincoln LS Drift Build

    Very nice thread and build. Cool to see something different. Do the forum a favor and keep posting. Side note: the telephone poles were giving me anxiety in the videos, but I'm assuming you're really good at what you do and those are harmless.

    Sad day, but maybe a silver lining.

    According to the manual Joe posted, it looks like you have to get to it from the glovebox. I remember also having to do something under the hood, maybe as simple as just removing the connectors. It's been a few years so I don't remember much besides it being a very simple extraction.

    IIRC, under the hood on the passenger side.

    Dealer pulled mine for free. YMMV.

    2006 Lincoln ls off the crusher

    Fair enough. No superchargers in route? The neat thing about the GPS in the Tesla is that if you plot a course, it calculates battery and if you would be low or exhaust the battery during that trip and will pin point and reserve superchargers for you on route. For example, if I were go from...

    2006 Lincoln ls off the crusher

    Out of curiosity, why's that? The long range is 330 miles.

    Sad day, but maybe a silver lining.

    Personally used this and worked well for me. Nothing but good things to say.

    Why not a Model 3? No gas and around 40k or less.

    Problems with a 2003 LS V8, need some help

    Likely a coil, which is the good news. The bad news is, it is also likely that you need a new PCM. Hard to come by and a lot of the time a junk yard one won't be good. I've had all of your issues before. Replace the coils with OEM and do the plugs (do them all now). Replace the fuel...
