A few weeks back we had a little storm blow through and a tree branch made a glancing blow to my rear door. I went through the standard route of insurance agent -> visit body shop to get estimate. This has started a 6 week ordeal, because the body shop advised me to find a good "Paintless Dent...

I have the OBD Link MX+ Bluetooth dongle. Can I... Connect to this with any bluetooth-enabled device running FORScan? Use the Android version of FORScan to connect to this? Looking to dip my toes into this world and need to know if I need to invest in the cable/connector with a USB...

If you've changed your own oil on the 3.5L engine you know how much of a PITA it is to get to the oil filter and spin it off. The worst part is that it's a two-hand operation since the filter is tucked so far back there, so you're on your back and craning your neck to get your arms back in there...

I just hit 15k on my 22 XLT PB. I think this is the One. I think I'll keep it a long time. I usually get bored with vehicles and change them with the weather but occasionally I'll get a good one that I keep for a long time. Did that with my 99 Accord V6 and 07 Odyssey. This 150 is a keeper. I...

I'm installing aftermarket grill lights which are meant to be on when my driving lights are on. I don't have a plug/play harness so I have to pick off power from somewhere under the hood. Any suggestions where I can get a switched +12V signal that doesn't require me to remove half of the engine...

I have been following all of the different skid plate threads. I finally broke down and bought a Talons Garage F-150 PowerBoost Skid Plate to protect my cats. I don't want to get into the differences between the different vendor solutions; what I do want to bring up that I've not heard anyone...

Love my XLT, buuuuut....the front end looks very blah. Giving the tow hooks a splash of color might be the ticket. (and I've learned from reading the JC Whitney catalog that it would add mpg) I actually think that the Tremor orange would be perfect. Q1) how would I go about finding the...

Does anyone know if the XLT badge includes fog lights? I have the fog light "lens" in my lower front bumper but I have not been able to locate the switch to turn them on, so I'm left to believe that they don't come stock. Can anyone confirm? thanks

Had a recent "discussion" online with someone asking me if the "piped-in engine noise was distracting?" Fake engine noise piped into the cabin? I knew they were doing this with the new Tundras, but not the PB. I vigorously denied it. My PowerBoost is dead quiet at speed even with the ICE...

Hi all…first Check Engine Light popped up last night…i am off to Autozone shortly to have them pull the code and start on that process. It’s time to step up my diagnostics game….if i run an app like Torque on my phone, what OBD2 bluetooth dongle would you recommend? There are hundreds on Amazon...

Anyone added a Fumoto Oil Drain Valve to their 3.5L yet? I think I've found the correct number (F137N) but having difficulty cross-referencing it on Amazon. Thanks

My 22 XLT PB 6.5' F-150 was delivered on 4/27; since then I've put about 800 miles on it. Did I make the right choice with this truck? Here are my impressions: Ride: driving this thing feels very much like driving one of those old "land yachts" like a Cadillac Fleetwood or Lincoln Continental...

Crawling under my XLT this morning to look at fixing up my rusty differential and I noticed this aluminum/fiber heat shield had affixed itself between the exhaust pipe and my differential. Kinda doubting that the diff needs heat shielding...I think it is for the bed but I can't tell where it was...

I was congratulating an F-150 Redditor who was posting pictures of his new ride. I mentioned that I was waiting for mine to get delivered the last mile, and he dropped this little gem on me: That explains a lot to me; there's a lot of owners that are seemingly waiting forever for the last...

I thought that this was kind of an interesting video. This guy traded in his F-150 for one of the new Tundras, did some mods, then eventually traded it back in for an F-150. Ben Hardy Video As of last November I was convinced that I'd be getting a new hybrid Tundra, until I actually went into...

Is there a simple tap point in the dash to pick up switched 12V to run a couple of accessories that I plan to mount on the dash? I don't know the current draw of these items at this time, although probably not significant (couple of androids and a gopro). If necessary I can pull in a...

I've followed threads in the past where some talented folks were able to hack the source code of the Jack Cooper transport site (palsapp.com) to do a search on their VIN. I'm doing this on developer tools in Chrome, and I can't seem to make this work. I don't get a VIN search bar that I can...

Is the Motorcraft FL500S the right oil filter for the 3.5L PB? Thought I might order these to have them on hand.

Did not realize until I read some of these threads on here that there is a "family pricing" option. Immediate family member just retired from FMC and has contacted Ford on behalf of my order. What kinds of discount is possible? Thanks
