just bought my first full sized van after my jeep became paralyzed.
anyone got any tips on adding a back up camera?
or a trailer hitch?
also anyone know anything about factory key fobs?

i guess anything else a new van owner might need to know might be helpful.

im sure there's other topics like spark plugs and suspension that I'll look at down the road, but for now just a quick hello

i hail from Dearborn Michigan, about a mile from the Henry Ford Museum. I work for the blue oval, am fairly mechanically inclined, and look forward to hearing and sharing with everyone.

 

What are you planning?

 

Nothing special, daily driver. Just some mild customization to enhance ease of operation.

perhaps some performance or longevity upgrades. Just trying to see what’s out there and where I can go.

 

Welcome!
only one thing I have to add: when you get new remote key fobs, you can program them yourself: don’t pay a dealer for something you can do free. I actually programmed my wife’s Escape fob to work on my 07 E350 and her Escape. Convenience.

what engine do you have? How many miles?

 

I have the 5.4 with 74,000 some odd miles.
dealer gave me a car fax that states it's got a bunch of fresh front end parts. It's probably going to need a muffler eventually it looks a bit rusty.
im going to try the dealer to get the FOBs today if I got the time.
