This one's legit funny because if the kid depicted was anything other than black, it wouldn't be offensive.
However, the most likely reason he IS black is DEI and the desire to not offend :lol:

re: 2019 F150 - Cam Phaser Rattle
Posted by BillyGibbons on 8/20/26 at 10:47 am to MaxxPain2
I don't own a modern Ford but did kick the tires on one a while back. The cam phasers were one of my sticking points.
If it were me, I'd DIY it with a cam phaser delete/lockout kit. If you can't DIY it, I'd look for a local shop willing to do it for me. You lose a few mpg by disabling the variable valve timing but you gain the reliability of not having it...
eta: depending on your engine the lockout/delete route may not be an option

Good question. I was there from PreK-1st. My parents pulled me out when I developed a thick southern accent.

I know where it is and what it smells like... I went to Ben's Ford Christian Academy (commuted from Abita).

The line outside looked like they were giving something away this morning. People were wrapped all the way around Dollar Tree pre-opening.

We might be neighbors. I see that bird flying over my house regularly. I live in a neighborhood that is synonymous with Pasturecreek...

Not completely related to this- but how is it even possible in that LA doesn't have satellite offices where you can do this, or register a new boat, etc?
This! There's a field office in Hammond and one in Lacombe that would be so much more convenient.

Well it was done by Toyota. Not saying they can’t frick it up, but I’d imagine they did a better job than some mechanic down the road.
It's really just luck of the draw as far as the tech you had working on it. I've seen some terrible work performed at both Toyota and Ford dealerships.

Just my $.02 but I would be concerned that everything that was taken apart to do the swap wasn't put back together just so... It's a body-off job to pull/replace that engine which involves someone(s) taking their time and re-torqueing everything back to factory spec.
re: Second Tier Cell phone carriers
Posted by BillyGibbons on 3/4/26 at 2:34 pm to tigerrage08
They all just re-sell another carrier's service.
For example, I currently have Mint mobile (T-Mobile), $208 for a year of unlimited pre-paid. No issues whatsoever.
I've had Spectrum (Verizon) and StraightTalk (ATT) in the past with no issues either.
I'd look into which major carrier provides the best service and then pick the reseller that utilizes that network. For example, Sprint has amazing coverage by the house (highly unlikely) go with Boost...
