  1. Could 2025 be a better year?

    I don't fault them for streamlining their options, both technologically and aesthetically, as I am sure there is a ton of analytics to back up the choices. They blended the two King Ranch models together, so you get one model that should appeal to all KR buyers. Further down the line, the XLT...
  2. Could 2025 be a better year?

    Ford announced they were streamlining the options/standard equipment on all 2024's. This is, in part, due to the lack of parts available to all manufactures, along with many other factors. In 2021, I ordered my Platinum in such a way (accidentally, I assure you) that it was built and in my...
  3. Smoked Quartz Platinum - Leveled - 285/65-20's

    I had a very high opinion of the Geolanders when I bought them, as I have had them on other vehicles in the past. I have just under 22,000 miles on the truck now and there is hardly any wear on the tires, at all. The vast amount of that mileage is highway, as it has become our prefered vehicle...
  4. Bluecruise Subscription cost.

    I am in the same boat here in Arkansas. I have not found a sufficient amount of roadways that BC works on to keep it. $200 a year for maybe one or two trips in my truck where it might come in handy is too much. I would champion an option, where I can turn it on for a daily rate. It would be...
  5. Hidden winch mount (or new bumper) for 22 Powerboost?

    If this plate for the Raptor is any indication, the lack of options may have to do with Ford's intercooler placement on turbo trucks. I assume behind the sheetmetal the architecture is the same as a normal F-150. It might be cost prohibitive to hide one, unless you have a 5.0. Anyway, if you...
  6. The Next-Gen 2023 Ford Super Duty Has Landed! 2 New Engine Options, ProPower Onboard, Smart Towing & More

    I have an '17 Wrangler and at least once per trip out, even sitting still while 4-wheeling, I question why the engine is still running. It is a new world when you drive a hybrid.
  7. Ford Says 40-45K Unfinished Vehicles Will be Awaiting Parts Through End of Q3

    For whatever reason, no matter how deep we get into this parts shortage, I am still amazed at the number of brand new cars populating vacant lots around the U.S. The labor and logistic needed to finish all of those vehicles outside the factory line has to be astronomical.
  8. Cost of Waiting for the ESP Plan?

    I bought my truck under invoice from a dealer about 40 minutes from me. The dealer that does my service is at or above MSRP and doesn't budge. Even back in 2018-2019, I approached them about a truck and they were at MSRP. The best, however, is that there is another local dealer that runs a...
  9. Cost of Waiting for the ESP Plan?

    I don't disagree. From my point of view, if you can get the warranty locally for what you can get it at Flood or Ziegler, why not do that. 6 years from now when the Service Manager is arguing with you about something, at least you can say "I bought this warranty through your dealership".
  10. Cost of Waiting for the ESP Plan?

    You don't have to buy from your dealership. These plans are available online through a number of dealerships. When I bought my truck, I showed the finance manager my quote from Flood and they matched the price. He was actually ticked (or seemed ticked) that another dealership was able to offer a...
  11. Car play

    Remember, SYNC & CarPlay are delicate flowers and need to be treated with patience, love, and affection. Never make them mad! For instance, if your phone is connected to CarPlay, do not get out and walk away from a running truck with the phone in your pocket. They get very upset! :ROFLMAO...
  12. Anyone have trouble with their power boost shutting down?

    Not to pile on, but I also agree with Currybob. One of the reasons I felt confident about buying a first year Powerboost was that the engine is a proven commodity and the hybrid system is an adaptation of Ford's existing tech. The unknown for me was the constant on/off of the engine, as I have...
  13. 2022 STX missing glove box- swap for cover?

    Ford's decision is likely heavily influenced by their commercial customers and by warranty claims. The less moving, breakable, parts the better for commercial use and I am sure, as fragile as that door seems, it has been an issue that has come up over and over again when speaking with some of...
  14. Area 51 on my preorder

    There have been a few leaks in regards to the Bronco color palette and, yes, Area 51 has been cut for 2023.
  15. Area 51 on my preorder

    I recall when the Gen 14 rolled out (late 20/early 21), that there were colors they were not yet ready to release, even through they were listed as available. Most of that had to do, I believe, with trucks coming out of Claycomo. In your case, if this is true, it might be a supply issue. They...
  16. King Ranch Club; Post Them Photos

    I had to stop by the dealership today to ask a question about my truck and spotted this KR on the lot. I debated had as to whether to get the SQ Platinum or the KR with the Caribou 20's. I thought this would be a sharp combination and it does not disappoint. (Sorry the photo is dark, I took it...
  17. Wild powerboost numbers?

    I never reset my Trip2 on my PB. Truck has 15,826 Trip 2: 5183.8 Total / 2763.4 Electric / MPG 16.9 (that is not a typo) 336 Engine Hours / 35 Idle Hours Total Time: 621:43:44 I would tend to believe that my truck moves under electric power about 18% of the time. I live in a very hilly area...
  18. Experience with dealer/ OTA issues

    I don't disagree with you one bit. If I could plug my computer into my truck, like I do with Forscan, and access a secure Ford site for updates....I would be all over that. My closest dealer is old as dirt (looks like a dealer from the 70's). They are building a new facility and have given me...
  19. Experience with dealer/ OTA issues

    This is beyond crazy. It seems, the newer the truck, the worse this issue is getting. I have some quirks in my PB, like the drivers side rear passenger door stopped unlocking when you touch the drivers door handle (it does work when you touch the front passenger side door), but this OTA stuff is...
  20. Connected Navigation and SiriusXM force removal

    I don't have a dog in this fight or any similar fight, as I have my 2021 in my driveway and short of a lemon claim, they are not getting it back. I do, though, believe that the Big 3 are headed for a class action suit in regards to the cuts they are making to vehicles and offering little to no...
