  1. This F150 forum's community assets 👏

    I just wanted to say you guys are hands down the best truck community out there. I was checking out the forums for Tacoma, Canyons, and Rangers as I search for a midsize. Most of those guys are like kittens and laser pointers. This forum (and the equivalent bronco forum) has such an amazing...
  2. DRL Recall Failed- What to Look At?

    So I had the DRL recall done about 2 months ago. I noticed the truck still seemed to flicker when it came back, but I couldn't recreate the issue. It's been in the shop 3 weeks for unrelated hail repair, so I havent had a ton of time to mess around. Then I unlocked the truck while walking...
  3. Possible to unlock all doors when driver door opens?

    Is it possible to use forscan to change how the locks operate? I usually have my kid in the back. I get out of the front door and often find the backdoor still locked, which is very different from what I'm used to with the SCAB suicide doors. Any way to change this so I don't have to reach for...
  4. Thinking Midsize, 2024 Ranger XLT vs 2023 Tacoma TRD Off Road

    My wife wants a truck after driving my f150. We're thinking Midsize just so we can barely squeeze it in the garage. The backseat space is better than our cx30 which is to be traded regardless, so I can't complain. I really like the NA motors, but have typically hate Toyotas for numb steering...
  5. Gen 14 F150s aren't cool apparently... no matchbox car

    You can find raptor and lightning matchbox cars, but no love for a Gen 14 f150. I looked around just for shits.
  6. Mid Engine Mustang Thread- This Thursday

    Apparently Multimatic is contracted to build a mid engine mustang. I wonder if this is going to be a GT successor. Either way, it definitely isn't competing with the vettes if Multimatic is building it. Thems some $$$. Reveal is coming Thursday. See...
  7. Moderately Interesting, engine weights

    I was doing a little searching because I had always assumed the small 2.7 was lighter. Turns out that the 2.7 is like 440lbs and the 3.5 isn't but 10lbs more. The 5.0 is something like 450 and the 3.3 is the the only odd ball at 350ish. I guess the weight difference between the 3 motors almost...
  8. Weight Rating for Aluminum Bed Walls?

    Bed rails, bed sides, side boards, whatever they're called- how much weight is safe to put on the aluminum bodywork in the bed? Really asking about the short bed 5.5, but curious about others too I guess. If I have to take my truck in to Afghanistan and put 3 mujahedeen sitting on each side...
  9. Tailgate Button Inconsistency?

    Okay so I have an XLT 302a with the tailgate that has the bed step and automatic slow opening with the use of the tailgate button or key fob. I noticed that when trying to open the tailgate using the button, it makes a noise like it's unlocking or something, but doesn't move. The truck is...
  10. Oil Changes are a PITA with this engine

    I just changed the oil for the first time way early, but I like keeping it around 1500 miles for the first change. Man that was a pain in the ass after having super easy changes in my 04 for so long. I really need a step stool to reach the oil fill cap. The oil filter is dumb as fuck. I'm not...
  11. Headlight recall performed...DRL Still Flickers?

    I had the headlight recall performed on my 2022 f150 today at Groove Ford. It seems the did an FDRS (?) twice on the BCM and sent it to me. It seems like the flickering is a little inconsistent, which is why it might've been missed. I noticed it with the truck turned off while the lights were on...
  12. Flood and Grainger Ford ESP- Premium Care, what's covered?

    Sorry, I'm pretty unfamiliar. Is labor covered? Anyone have experience actually using these ESPs? I saw the one at flood for 10yr 60miles was like 1350. Not too bad considering what an IWE or camphaser costs. Does this cover exterior paint? I saw the weird exception for light bulbs and figured I...
  13. Interior Swap? Anyone do this yet?

    I have the crappy gray fabric textured XLT interior and always liked the leather dash and door sils. Antone attempt an interior swap? Where did you source parts? How difficult was it?
  14. Best UV protection? Paints and Plastics Seperately

    I've been using GC Jetseal and VRP for a while and I think it's been doing okay, but its just crazy expensive. I'm not sure the VRP last that long outside either. Any good recommendations or tests to reference? I'm mostly concerned about the UV protection being in Colorado and having the truck...
  15. How Would You Feel if Ford Pulled a Dodge and Produced Last Model Along Current Mod?

    I really thought the Ram Classic was stupid. I hated the last iteration of the 1500 and was blown away at the decision to keep it. That said, there's definitely a play to be made that actually makes a lot of sense. How would everyone feel if Ford continued making the XL trim trucks from the...
  16. Turned Down Exhaust?

    Anyone ever cut the stock pipe so it turns down just past the axle? I saw some aftermarket flow masters done this way on AM. I kinda like the look, but wonder if that increases drone or CO in the cab? It basically takes the exhaust out of sight. Not big on the L pipe look probably because it...
  17. Collision warning Re(Liability)- Tesla Whistleblower

    I was reading a bit this morning about a topic that's finally getting some attention. Granted, this is with Tesla, but they're the same problems every mfg has with driver aids. Mazda seems to be the most dangerous with their automatic braking that can't be turned off in the CX30- I removed the...
  18. Road in a 2023 GMC Sierra- way better than prior years

    My body shop guy drove me home in his 2023 SLT while the 2022 XLT F150 gets the hail damage repaired. While still unacceptably ugly from the front, the interior of the mid range SLT was actually much nicer than my XLT. I'm not one to complaint too much about the F150 interior- I like it infact...
  19. F150 vs....mexican ranger???

    Saw the payload figures on the ford mexico site. How on earth is a ranger pulling HDPP payload numbers on the wrong side of the border? Are they getting completely different Rangers down there?
  20. 360 cameras: not available?

    It almost seems random, but I noticed today that I can occasionally only see the trailer camera. It doesn't stay on either. I get a message that said full cameras unavailable or something weird like that. Separately, Is there a way to view the front cameras or even the 360 cameras without it...
