Best MPG I’ve gotten on a tank

Got 18.35 MPG this tank. This is probably 75% highway/interstate. Lots of backroads and some in town driving too.

2016 Frontier Issue

So, I’ve made a couple posts now about an issue I’ve been having. At first I thought it was a Cam or Crank sensor. Then a shop told me it was the fan clutch. Great. I replace the fan clutch myself. A week later it does the same thing again. RPMs drop, engine light flashes, loss of power, slippage, 4wd light flashes. Was this shop just flat out wrong? It sounds to me like a Cam or Crank sensor. I think I’m gonna bite the bullet and take it to the Nissan dealer where it was bought. They’ll at least be familiar with it. Any ideas?

Fan Clutch

I made a post a couple days ago when I had some engine components over heat. Today is the follow up post. Got it to a shop and the fan clutch had gone out creating a chain reaction of overheated components in this 95° weather. Cam and Crank sensors overheated and were shut off. Gonna get some parts and fix it myself. Also gonna do brake fluid and spark plugs while I’m at it. Gonna be a lotta fun (maybe).

For anyone interested or that has a similar issue the symptoms I had were:

Fluctuating RPMs, loss of power to accelerator, total loss of RPMs, engine light flashing, and 4x4 light flashing.

I let it cool for about 30 minutes and got it home.

ECU

Well guys, I think the ECU finally went out. RPMs started sputtering and even dropped to 0. 4wd flashed on and off. Put her in neutral and coasted off the side of the road. The first thing that came to mind was the ECU lol. Gonna try and wait about 30 minutes and see if I can get it home about 10 minutes down the road.

Transmission Fluid Maintenance

Hey all, so I have a 2016 SV 4x4 CC. It has about 160k miles on it. I’m the second owner and have had it since 108k miles. I do oil changes every 5k miles. I haven’t had the transmission fluid replaced or the lines flushed since I’ve had it. The gentleman who previously owned the truck passed away, so there’s no way to know if it was done before I have had it. I’ve heard that if you flush the lines after it hasn’t been done in so long it’ll cause metal shavings to destroy your transmission. I’m just curious if anyone has a similar experience or what advice you can give.

Note: no issues noticed with the transmission, just want to check on this since I’ve had it 50k miles.

Free Weather Tech Floor Mats

This absolutely made my day.

I was parked on the side of the road in my 2nd Gen when an older gentleman drove past in his ‘23-‘24 frontier. He looped back around and stopped to talk to me. He told me he had just wrecked his 2nd Gen not long ago and had some Weather Tech floor mats I could have for free. So, I follow him back to his house and I get some free mats for the front and the back seats! (Crew cab). Then, he asked if I have a bed rail. Which I do. And he gave me 3 free tie downs for it as well. Man Frontier people are awesome. Never change guys.

Opinion/feedback on Tactile Turn?

Just getting into machined pens. I really like the looks of this pen, and was curious what everyone’s perception of Tactile Turn is? I’m very open to any and all opinions, so throw them at me!

Windshield wipers

Hey all, I’ve had my frontier for about four years now and the entire time I’ve had it I’ve never found any windshield wipers that are just great. I don’t know what it is about it but no matter what I do they seem to struggle. Are there any models that anyone can recommend that work well on a second GEN? One of my friends also suggested I use RainX as well, but that doesn’t solve the main problem. Though I will definitely be trying it.

Hey all, my mom recently paid a family member to detail her car. She has a 2022 Ford Explorer for reference. They charged her $430 for all of the work. First off, I feel this is expensive for work done by a few teenagers who have supposedly invested “thousands of dollars” into equipment and then did what I think is an unacceptable job for that price. Here are some pictures. Do I have completely unrealistic expectations or is this ridiculous?

Notes: the stuff on the green upholstery is splash from a drink above a cupholder. And I’ll admit the gas cap is very meticulous of me to expect, but I’d have liked to see them at least wipe it down for this price. Also, all the specks I’ve taken pictures of on the black plastic areas of the car are NOT scuffs, but rather areas they simply didn’t clean or just looked over.

My mom feels like it’s not that bad, but I am honestly quite upset and feel they ripped her off. Ultimately it’s her car though, but I wanted to get some more opinions.

EDIT: Thanks guys for all the comments. I’ve decided to just let it go. Does it really really suck? Yes. But is it worth ending/damaging a relationship? No. Though I will not recommend them to anyone nor will we be using them again.

I’m somewhat new to this hobby. Long time knife collector and enthusiast and I appreciate the craftsmanship of these sorts of things. I’m looking for suggestions or a starting place with some of yalls favorite brands. Price is only subjective. Anything is in the budget if you work hard enough🤪 anyways, show me your favorite rainbow, titanium, copper, aluminum, etc pens.
