My F150 just reminded me why I want the CyberTruck

[bcexperts]

So while I was in Mexico recently my F150 decide to blow #7 spark plug. Got a temporary fix that got me home but now in the process of doing the permeant fix on that cylinder to keep it going until my Cybertruck is delivered. Now I just have to worry about the other 7 on the Triton 5.4.

I still may keep the F150 as my Mexico vehicle since the charging availability won't be easy south of the border for quite some time.

Timesert?

It's generally a good day when a plug comes out in one piece, but sorry to see the threads got mangled. Ouch.

That was after the temporary fix. What you are seeing is the cheap insert that got mangled. Only issue with the plug was the ceramic chipped. Plug still probably works but I'll be putting in a new plug along with the Calvan insert when it arrives today.

Permanent fix has been done on #7. Calvan Kit worked well. Now I just have to wait for the next one to blow.

Before & After

Considering eight year old Model S, and your twenty year old Ford, it will be interesting to see what type of longevity the Cybertruck has... in say, the year 2044?

Interesting how they feature the full-width headlight bar. Wonder where they got that idea...
