Tires OEM FORD or Shinko

I'd take the F-150 I already have. It has 3-peak rated tires on it, heated seats, runs on regular, and in the off chance something breaks for some reason, parts are easy to find because they're everywhere. I can confirm it's a beast in the snow even in 2WD because of the tires.

That sucks. It's not the car or rain's fault. These cars are just fine in the rain. You were driving too fast, or following too closely, or have bald tires.

There's some evidence that EVs are harder on tires because they're heavier and accelerate better, but at 10k on my very, very heavy Lightning I'm not seeing that, probably because I drive like a grandma.

I'll add my first two years of ownership review. The past two years the Maverick has hauled everything I've needed without issues.

What's your goal? To become a professional driver (regardless of it being profitable or not)? to find a new fun way to burn money? To live out a dream of driving a car you maybe can't afford on track? I did the drive an exotic before i had a car that was worth taking on track. It was a blast. I have more fun doing hpde now where I get significantly more track time (and get stuck with the cost of tires and rotors and brake pads and fixing things that break and trying to chase gremlins) . While the idea of racing is appealing the cost of racing is not but if that was a goal progressing towards a license and avoiding picking up any bad habits is your best bet.

Rotating tires, system checks, and topping off the windshield fluid.

One set of tires is my only out of pocket maintenance expense.

I just dropped $1600 on a module for my 2022 ford etransit with 60800km.

The van also needs $1600 worth of tires because ev tires are apparently specifically made for carrying the extra weight of the vehicles and have reduced life expediency.

Here\u2019s the \u201cbad\u201d stuff that I\u2019ve had on mine:\n\n- LED light on the running board went out. Replaced under warranty\n- backup sensor issue: a wire broke (i think) when I did some \u201cspirited\u201d driving on a gravel road. Getting fixed on Monday.\n- rear drive unit seal weeped a bit. Getting fixed on Monday.\n- stock tires sucked.

I do have the exact same size on my 2019 Ford Taurus Limited. Can't remember exactly when I put them on without looking for the tire receipt, but I don't think they're anything special. They wear fast, & to me they're loud. Actually looking for some new tires too. But I know I won't be getting these again.
