    Sold the LS

    Yeah. I probably could have gotten a little more for it but I want to make a deal on a new vehicle this month while everybody has good incentives going so I was willing to let it go a little cheaper. Also, it has a little paint damage on the front bumper I'm guessing from the heat reflecting off...

    Sold the LS

    The car has been great, but with the warranty running out this week and needing something a little more practical for the family I had to get rid of it. Was getting offers of $8k-10k from dealers on trades. Listed it on cars.com for $15k and sold it the first day. It will be missed, but I'm...

    What's the mpg that your LS is getting?

    03 V8 50k miles I'm right around 20-20.5 with mixed driving, but I'm not usually running the heat or ac this time of year... Oil on the filter will reduce power and mileage. I got to the point where I would clean my filter often but not put much oil on it.

    Time for the LS to go

    When using the A Plan though you have to tell them up front you are planning on doing that. Otherwise I would and hope to get closer to 11 or 12 from them.

    Time for the LS to go

    That's what I was originally thinking. One dealer offered 10k today, Ford offered 8k and said they can't afford to do more cause I was looking to buy something on an A-Plan. No way was I gonna accept 10, let alone 8. I had an offer of 11 a couple weeks ago from a dealer but I ended up not...

    Time for the LS to go

    Been thinking about this one for a while but i think it's time for the LS to go. Getting ready to start a family and just need something a little more practical/bigger. Went to a lot today but they weren't offering much on a trade so I'm gonna sell it privately. Out of curiosity, what are you...

    lug nut replacements

    I need to get some replacement lugs for the spare since I sold all the originals with the wheels. I went to FLM and they wanted $12 each or something. I saw somewhere that O'Reilly's had some that worked for cheap, but I'm having a hard time figuring out which ones they are online. Is this the...

    good mechanic in PHX

    Never heard of Ranch House. I have a house off of Pecos and Val Vista, but usually stay at the old ball and chains place in Tempe since it's closer to work.

    Tire Life

    I have had 2 blowouts in the last couple weeks, and a 3rd was worn down to the steel. Had to replace all the tires. They were Falken Fk452's. Been on less than a year, maybe 15k miles on them. Fairly normal driving, maybe slightly on the aggressive side but not too badly. Car is dropped 1.5"...

    Navigation

    I went to navteq and the disc they list says something like Denso 2008. no mention of 5d or 6p or anything. Some of the discs i've been seeing online do say FLM or Lincoln on them so I'm guessing they will work. I'll give one a shot and let you know how it works.

    Navigation

    Bringing this one back up.... Is 5d still the most current? My mom wanted a new disc in her Navigator and I was looking, found some 5d but didn't know if there was anything newer... EDIT: Just found a 6P online. Does anybody know if these are all compatible with the lincoln NAV system? I...

    Wind Deflectors

    I had them on my truck and loved them. especially when it was raining and i was still able to crack the windows. I've been hesitant to get them on the LS because I thought they would stand out too much. Do you have some pictures of yours, close and far away?

    Need some detailed info on the THX stereo

    I emailed THX to find out the xovers and they wouldnt tell me, said only ford is allowed to know that info and that i should enjoy the system the way it is. I'm guessing it's the head unit that splits it rather than the amps but i dont know that for sure. I've been wanting to put my CDT's in...
