  1. Is this really standard build quality for an 80k truck?

    And a Ford truck is still the best full size in America ...
  2. Found Tube under intercooler disconnected on new F150 Lariat HEV

    I wonder if they were originally not connected all the way and after the truck was driven around a bit the internal pressure in the hose/tube blew out (disconnected) the connection?
  3. Don’t buy the 18 speakers sound system, 12 inch display is GARBAGE

    My '23 150 Lariat has the B&O 18 speaker system, I really enjoy how it works and sounds. There are gremlins w/ wireless Apple carplay, but have been traced back to my phone specifically not allowing a sync at times - which is fixable by plugging directly USB. Dealer was able to prove it was...
  4. Truck Covers USA Roll Cover installed review & photos

    I have that one without the toolbox and it is a great cover, only downside is the rollup box in the bed takes about 8 inches of bed length away (except for about 10 inches under the box that will allow full length use of the bed). It works great, minimal water leakage, no rattling and makes...
  5. Tire ratings

    I have personal experience with buying the wrong tire for the application, etc. Having freeway blow outs, punctures from objects on the road etc. I spend too much on tires, but safety, drivability and reliability are most important to me - especially when towing or hauling heavy loads (which I...
  6. 2021 Powerboost with multiple warning lights (Powertrain Malfunction/Reduced Power , ABS light, Pre-Collision Not Available, 7X Blind spot Detection

    What scares me more than this problem today, what if my truck does make it to 7 or 8 years and this stuff starts happening? Who is going to fix an 8 year old F150 with 150K miles?
  7. LED Reflector high beam alignment

    Good to know! Thanks.
  8. LED Reflector high beam alignment

    That is true, they are self adjusting once installed and aligned properly. There are sensors at each wheel from the suspension to a mounting point on the axle or control arm - as you load up the truck, go up hills, hit bumps, etc. the sensors automatically adjust the headlight height...
  9. Extended warranty rental car

    I would ask in a nice way (as I am sure you do) and see the service manager if needed. Suggest you will go to another dealer if they cannot help/comply. As a small business owner, the easier customers who openly say - I understand you are busy, etc, etc. I need some help to get to work, etc. -...
  10. 2023 Agate Black Lariat Sport build

    Did you install the leveling kit yourself? If so, how difficult (be honest) was it to do? My 2023 is almost the same as yours - but FX4, power running boards and maybe a couple of other bits - great truck!
  11. 2023 Agate Black Lariat Sport build

    I have the AT3 Toyos (3rd set on three different trucks) - AMAZING, very quiet, nice ride and the Snow Flake rating is real - they easily claw through 6 to 10 inches of snow (set 4WD in snow mode) without any problem. Was really funny to see guys in their new Rams and GMs sliding all over the...
  12. RAMCharger has been announced. The Hybrid Ford should be building.....

    Just like a Chevy Volt set up - plug in to charge battery if you want, use the ICE engine to charge the battery and add juice to the motors when needed. Interesting, but from what I saw will be a VERY heavy 1/2 ton truck - 8 lug wheels. I bet the cheapo version would land at $69K and the...
  13. Update: 2024 F-150 Job 1 Production Begins 12/18/23. Now Scheduling for Production Week 1/29/24.

    I remember back in the day - all the manufacturers would start advertising the new cars and trucks in late August and just after Labor day you could go to the dealer and buy one. As a kid I would ride my bike by the dealer back lots to see the new models parked and waiting for early September!
  14. Anybody See an Electrical Problem Here?

    Looks like my 2021 ... it shows no signs of touching or wear after 83K miles. I think you are good.
  15. 5.0 vs 3.5 - more reliable when driven hard?

    I've had 2 3.5EB - change the oil at 5K, use full synthetic - no problems with anything (about 200K miles each). I drive moderately and mostly for fuel economy only - they go like crazy when needed. If worried get an extended warranty - the best thing about the turbos, they adjust to weather...
  16. Purchasing Extended Warranty

    I bought one from my dealer when I got my truck, zero deductable 8/140K, came with 10 free oil changes, towing, cheaper rental car, etc. Given how much stuff is on these new trucks and that I will likely keep this one for 200K+ miles it seemed like a good deal.
  17. Rats in a new Powerboost

    Get them now if you can, I had them eat a ton of wiring on an older F150 and it cost me $1500 in time at the dealer to trace everything, but the service tech was good to me as he only charged me for the splicing, tape, etc. Replacing wiring harnesses would have cost me $4000++ and insurance...
  18. Active Air Dam Issues - No Recall Yet?

    I am on my second air dam replacement for my 2023 F150 - each time the dealer had a Ford engineer inspect the damage and admit it was not my fault and off to replace the parts. This time they are going to replace everything related to the air dam - the upper part, the part the moves, the...
  19. LaneCentering 2.0 down after 3 hour drive, caused by an update?

    I will check into recalibrating it ... it used to work flawlessly, but then ??? Forscan kind of scares me, I have the OBII cable and have tried to use it in the past (changing high beams to bambi and getting actual temperature numbers to read on the dash guages) but I feel like I am one click...
