Dang, my wife knows more about my truck then I do !!!!

She told me next time I'm in the truck to try something she found out on her Explorer Sport !

We all know about the 'full' push for continuous or 'regular' turn signal function and the 'half push' for the temporary 3 or 5(with trailer) blink function...

but I've always turned the blinker off the old fashioned way, a partial push the 'other' way if I didn't want to leave it on...

She says it's a toggle switch too - i.e. if u have the right signal on, you can push it up for the right signal again and it turns it off

THAT is tough to swallow when the true blonde knows more about it than I !!!

I don't know if I should admit this, but...

The day I drove my truck home I was playing with all the seat, mirror, etc. adjustments getting it all set up for me, and to program the button on the door that brings it all back, so to speak. One of the adjustments is the steering wheel, you can pull it out a few inches closer, nice. I was thinking that the adjustable steering wheel would be great to have in my 2011 Fusion because it's always been close to the dash when it dawned on me - there's a lot of similarities here, maybe the Fusion's steering wheel *does* move...

Yeah, it does. Three years and 38K miles and I never realized that about my daily driver. Duh-Oh!

Joe,

Lol, that's beautiful man. Of course I've never done anything like that...



My wife's daily driver is a Toyota 4 Runner. It's got the auto climate control. We've had that car 6 years and I still can't figure the damn thing out. In my defense, I don't drive it much, but still, 6 years and I have to lean over and tell her "fix this thing, make it warm/cold in here" if she's riding with me. I keep getting the "set" temp and outside air temp mixed up on the dash.
