I used Adam's advanced graphene ceramic coat. It's billed as 10H and 9+ year durability. The kit was $140 on Amazon and i barely used a quarter of it. The paint feels smooth like glass. It's crazy.

Looks much more factory for sure. Also, that textured powder stains and is a paint to clean. The smooth paint surface is so much nicer on all fronts.

I say this because your new truck “boring color” looks smooth and timeless and I think lunar rock will get old and the paint shows dirt and imperfections bad on our rav4.

Paint has been shit recently from all brands, the best paint I have seen was on my Lexus RX from Japan, silky smooth, none of that ripple orange peel shit, and yes I've seen them on Ferraris and Porsches.

I love my Camry. I actually regretted trading in my ‘14 Camry SE. That body style was much sexier than my ‘19. Plus the attitude black paint was different and had those little pieces of glitter like on it. It was awesome. I had the back lights wrapped in black. Everyone thought it was a high end Lexus.

Magma Red - It looks great clean. But i haven’t kept up on it. 100k on the clock and I’m probably going to have to blow a good chunk of money to have it color corrected, polished, coated…… but when it’s shiny it’s great.

Looks like a normal early 2000s Mustang to me. At least that one is still mostly shiny, even if it is different colors.

Hi All! The Bronco is ready for paint, and I’m torn between these three options. You guys have seen everything and I value your opinion from the heart. Was gonna do candy red but decided it’s too loud for this truck. Matte Graphite - looks insane irl and I think will pop with chrome and black accents. Every manufacturer is coming out with “special” satin/matte paints, and it’s super popular. I’ve always believed the bronco should be a nice glossy paint, and I’m truly happy with either option one or two. But then option three came in to derail my thought process. What do you find folks think would be a logical choice both in terms of aesthetic and maintenance?

Thinking about getting the avalanche color. It looks white in a lot of pictures, so need to see it up close. Prefer more glossy gray.

Very well said. I recently sold my black 2014 Ford Edge Sport and only used a yellow rupes foam pad with Sonax Perfect Finish for a quick one step. The paint was trashed and I only wanted to make it pop but everyone who came to look at it was amazed at how glossy it was, even though I still saw tons of scratches. The HUGE majority of people don't even see or care about scratches and just focus on the shiny aspect of the paint so I definitely appreciate your chasing finish comment.

Yeah, rock chips are inevitable at 150k, but the paint still looks glossy black. How did you do it? Only go to touchless car washes?

My Jetta that was made in Germany was a 2012 and paint had the nice gloss look until the day I crashed it in December 2021. No American car can boast that.

I bought a Sonata hybrid last weekend. The dealership has three Ionic 6 cars there. The third one was a nice glossy silver color, maybe light grey, that looked great.

If you want something truly practical, I’d suggest a ceramic coating. It will protect your paint from rock chips and whatnot. Maybe not the most exciting purchase, but you’ll be happy about it in a few years.

You owe it to yourself to coat it in ceramic coating.. I see the difference in 40-50k mile cars with and without it.. it’s definitely a good idea. At my dealership it’s mandatory that every new Honda that comes off the truck gets coated.

Ceramic coating works really well. Not saying it won't chip but it doesn't look nothing like that and I have over a hundred thousand miles on mine. Well worth the money looks great also

Absolutely, I had ceramic coating applied to my car last year, and it was a game-changer for maintaining that glossy look with less effort. While the upfront cost of around $1500 might seem steep, I found it to be worth it for the protection and ease of cleaning it offers. Just make sure you go to a reputable detailer who offers a warranty on their work!

I love that zinc coating and all of my MC stuff has held up great over the past 5 years. Still haven’t needed new bushing on my control arms either and I’ve driven my Jeep hard. I recommend all of their stuff.

Paid $1,500 for my ceramic coating and don't regret a thing. Been over a year now and my car still looks sparkly even when I haven't washed it in a while.

Keep it protected, sealant, wax, ceramic coating. Whatever fits your budget/DIY skills, etc. Keeping it protected from new is the best thing you can do to try to prevent paint issues in the future.

It's a super thin layer of clear ceramic that protects the paint. It certainly works because cars look phenomenal after it's done.

Clear film that goes over the paint. Expensive but worth it if you want to keep it for the long haul. Protects against rock chips, road, grime, etc. That destroys paint.

The coating is hydrophobic and makes it easier to clear dirt off. Also gives long term protection - protects the paint. The coating takes the damage, not the paint.

It’s ceramic coating and it is totally worth the $200 they are charging. It protects your exterior from the harsh elements of your day to day driving.

For any car to remove badges - heat gun and some floss. If you don't have a heat gun, a hair dryer could work too. Heat up the badge so the adhesive on the back melts. Work the floss in behind the badge until it's a bit loose. Keep working it with the floss, once it's loose enough just peel it off. You can use goo gone or something to get the remaining adhesive left behind off the truck. Work slowly, be careful not to scratch the paint. It's easy, only takes like 30-45 mins.

Lots of good parts there. It's always funny how not one truck will rot out the same way as another, the frames a roach but the bodies not bad, my 94 bronco is the exact opposite way, the body is nasty but the frame is solid as a rock

The Ford Escape matches up perfectly. The Tribute has different rear lights, the ones on the Escape are identical to the light frame in the last pic. Bumper and roofline (what’s left of it) match too.

Long hood, sleek body lines, boxy front end, wide open front grille, short rear. Most of all it was inexpensive and sporty with respectable performance to match. It appealed heavily to young people at the time and still does today. It’s everything that Americans want.

Question, I have a windshield on a 2013 F150 that has had two rock chip repairs. After the repairs both are still visible, they look like little stars. The last time I had a repair, (approximately 5 years ago) the tech had me sign a form indicating that I understood that the repair would be visible. In the relative distant past on a 1997 F150 this wasn’t the case. After a rock chip repair I really had to search for where the rock chip was as it was almost invisible. What has changed?

Agreed, I of course like the way it looks but of course I think with the roush fogs and grill it might look a bit better, especially when paired with morimoto’s gt500 fog lights for the 14/13 mustang which also fits the roush fog housing

I've seen a few rusty 3rd gens, and one with a completely rusted frame, but it's pretty rare unless there is unrepaired damage. Nothing like older Ford Escapes, which are all rusted through.

Hey guys, I'm buying a 2004 Mach 1 Mustang and I'm super excited! It's in great condition and has only had one owner. Only thing is the grill mustang ornament was stolen years ago he said and he never bothered to replace it. After searching online I cannot find anything that's at least a reliable source. I am in Canada by the way. If anyone knows how to search one down I would be very appreciative! Thanks!

I can tell you right now, 3 of my buddy’s have F150’s, 2 of them 3.5 and on is a 2.7. Both of the 3.5’s have needed $9,000 worth of turbos by about 80-90k miles, and the 2.7 mechanically so far is good but a week after he bought it (used) the fucking panoramic roof popped out of the frame and needed $4000 worth of shit. I’d recommend no F150 lol

Its rare to find these in such good shape, they are usually sun faded and cracked up, it's a shame to get excited over such high quality plastic isn't it! LOL, thanks for the comment!

I do think that American cars absolutely shitty when it comes to like interior design now. My dad has a 2016 Silverado and that thing is loaded with nothing but cheap fabric and plastic, everything rattles too. My 06’ f150 however has much better materials even to this day. I don’t think America is at fault. I think it’s just less quality and more quantity.

I'm selling the old girl to my boss soon anyhow so it can live the rest of its days as a light duty asphalt truck. I hope this was the last winter it will ever see; I feel bad for the thing. I love my little Ranger, but it will be bossman's problem in a while anyhow. Much appreciation for the help

I been in an accident with an escape 2018 model. Semi truck rear ended me at a red light. He was speeding and not even slowing down or nothing. Can't say so much for the car in front of me. In most cases trucks are better tho due to the frame they're sitting on. But most ford's like escape and or the edge have a pretty high safety rating.

I know the engine and suspension is premium but man a few things stick out like a sore thumb. The styling and material of those seats remind my of grandpa's old outdated recliner. The plastic hood cowl looks cheap af and the use of oversized fender flares to accommodate the increased width instead of widened fenders is total crap just like the Bronco's.

The only thing like this that gets me is when someone buys a brand new F-150 XLT or Lariat then proceeds to spend 30 grand on lifting and body work and power mods to make it look like a Raptor when they could’ve just bought a Raptor. But, if it’s a truck that’s a few years old, with a bumper, tires, and an aftermarket grill, I don’t see anything wrong.

I have gotten two new Bronco loaners when I take my F150 in. I know they are basically base models but they are plastic and cheap interiors inside. Have not been impressed. I know you can get higher end models but I don’t know why you’d spend that kind of money for it.

It depends on your preferences. IONIQ 5 interior quality is unacceptable at that price point in my opinion, hard plastics everywhere and the tacked on 2015 iPad screen looks horrible as well. EV6 is better but still, it’s a Kia and not a Lexus.

They make the neatest looking cars inside and out and are super premium. Love this new updated Tucson, love the new Kia K4 (wow) and so on. Even the upcoming Kia Carnival van is gorgeous! I would have easily went back to Kia and Hyundai (I trade in every 2-3 years on a new car) except for 1 reason. They have so many recalls and seem to have a lot of engine issues and fire risk issues.

I was really tempted to get the Prime Hybrid, but they didn't sell the 2024 version in the state I'm in until 2025. So I opted to get the 2023 Kia Sportage PHEV. One of the features I like is the entire front windshield has the warming lines, which makes it so much faster to defrost the car. I wish every car had this as a standard.

I wanted to like it, as it would make for a great camping vehicle, but after first looking at the EV9, the Carnival interior looked cheap and really didn't like the dash with that "ribbed" plastic chrome..

You excused the Kia Niro when it might have been the best car. Really, plastics? The Kia infotainment is an excellent solution compared to the chunky tablet. We almost chose one over an EV6.

The new Seltos facelift Brochure mentions that it has improved the frame and hence it should be safer. Does anyone have an idea of how much better the safety of the new Kia Seltos has improved over the previous version? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.

I would suggest some dielectric grease as well, or cutting a drain slot in that wire loom, that wire loom is bad about trapping water and moisture that travels upwards to that connector and will corrode the pins. Lots of Chrysler active air dams and grill shutters suffer from this in my experience.

Probably different connector configurations because they switched OEM suppliers from one Chinese company to another. The Chrysler "engineer' (intern) who wrote the specification sheet for the new supplier was too lazy to check how the previous version was pinned so there you are.

Arrgh. Click to expand... Welcome to owning a Jeep/Dodge product. in 150,000km of ownership of our Jeep, we have replaced everything in the suspension 2 times, throttle body, 3 sets of plugs, various electrical things, stereo pooped the bed, I could go on and on. The most reliable dodge/jeep product I owned was my 2011 Wrangler Once I removed all the dumb design features jeep put there, like freaking plastic in the ball joints. Move to another brand and be MUCH happier. We have 179k on our Ford F150 5.0 and all that's been replaced is one set of plugs and one ball joint.

It moves the lights and shit forward to make room in the engine compartment. The early humvees were found lacking in the power department and later on in the mideast even with the turbos. The Humvees does use the Jeep grill, that happened before it was patented iirc. There’s some quirk that allowed them legally. I forget the specifics.

Wow. Hope they’re okay. And I had the same issue with my Jeep last December. I had the whole clutch replaced. Turns out a plastic piece in the console was interfering with the shift stick. The mechanic bent the stick just a millimeter or two, and voila! Reverse worked!

Yup... The Achilles Heel of Jeeps has always been the frames. Any prospective used Jeep I go and look at: I don't care about anything UNTIL I get down low and inspect every bit of that frame for excessive rust/rot/patches, etc. If the frame is good, anything else can be relatively easily addressed. I have lost a couple of Jeeps to frame rust, which is a hazard living about 300 yards from the Atlantic ocean, and it sucked because they ran just fine! Not worried about flash rust on the drive shaft, muffler components, etc. I'm looking for ROT! IE: You poke it with a screwdriver and it goes right through... That kind of rot.
