  1. .... says he will impose 25% tariffs on all steel and aluminum imports

    More drama with the potential to affect vehicle prices (among other things). Hang on and hang in there folks, there's just no telling what the goal or outcome might really be. :cautious:
  2. Making the 'Lie-O-Meter' more 'honest' (Average Fuel Economy display)

    Nothing new in this post (the basic info has been posted previously by others), just providing an example of how to adjust the "AFE Bias" (Average Fuel Economy Bias) in Engineering Mode to yield somewhat more consistently accurate Average MPG display results for your truck. This has no impact...
  3. The long-delayed migration .... WIN 10 > 11 (grrrr)

    Well, I've gotta face the fact that MS support for Win 10 Pro ends this October (yep, it's already 2025! :ROFLMAO:) and I'm not inclined to run an OS that doesn't get security updates. (grrrr) Further, the Dell Refurb E6530 laptop that's served me well since January 2014, supporting 2 external...
  4. Pre-empting CDF Drum issues?

    I've not had a hint of a problem, I don't obsess about this, in fact it rarely even comes to mind, and I think I know the answer to my question ("no"), but though I'd ask just for the heck of it .... Is there anything non-invasive that can be done to pre-empt potential CDF drum issues? E.g...
  5. SuperCrew vs. SuperCab comparison (specs & features)

    Folks have lots of good personal reasons for preferring / choosing a SuperCrew vs a SuperCab for their ideal truck. There's certainly legitimate pros and cons to each depending on one's needs and use-habits. Without any judgement either way I thought it would be fun to make a simple table of...
  6. a GOOD-NEWS thread ..... share yours!

    It strikes me that we're due for an uncommon "good-news" rather than a more common "I've got a problem" thread here (yeah, forums tend to attract the bad news, just the way it is). So, just to share in that spirit, now at 13k miles and 30 months I'm still absolutely thrilled with my unicorn (no...
  7. Is trailer lights check routine gone from IPC?

    It's been a while since I used it, and several OTA updates since, but now I can't find the trailer lights check routine on my IPC trailer menu (it would cycle through all of the lights several times to allow visually checking operation). I know it's been removed from the FordPass app, has it...
  8. Best use of the IGNORE option on this forum!

    Not an option I've ever used on a forum before, but just for grins I applied it to the @Ford Motor Company bot. Wow, that sure removed the clutter from a bunch of threads I follow (e.g. What did you do TO your F-150 today?) and I know I'm not missing anything that's useful or interesting! (y)...
  9. Ford should provide this trailering info on a doorframe sticker

    On my Escape Trailer owner's forum a member posted this pic of a VIN-specific Trailering Information sticker that's on the doorframe of their 2022 GM 1500 (Yes, this GM also has the separate mandated axle rating and 'payload info' stickers which Ford along with all other brands display)...
  10. Trailer Breakaway Brake Musings

    Breakaway brakes are intended to activate when a trailer becomes completely disconnected from the tow vehicle. That’s obviously a terrible event, likely with multiple consequences, none of them good for the trailer, the tow vehicle, or other folks, vehicles, or property in the vicinity when it...
  11. for fans of steam locomotives (Big Boy Tour)

    Just FYI, Union Pacific has released the schedule for the Big Boy No. 4014 "Heartland of America Tour" https://www.up.com/heritage/steam/schedule/index.htm For kids of all ages it's quite a sight to see (and hear, and 'feel') if you have an opportunity. By Fan Railer - Own work, CC BY-SA...
  12. 2024 CHMSL Cam (aka 'Bed Cam')?

    Maybe it's been answered but search didn't yield a definitive answer (nor did the Order Guide) .... Does any 2024 trim or option package get the CHMSL Cam (aka 'Bed Cam')? By chance has anyone taken delivery of a 2024 ordered with the DIO Individual Trailer TPMS/Customer-Placed Trailer Camera...

    Asking if anyone has placed an order for a 2024 with Tow/Haul Package (53T) AND optional Max Tow axle code (XL5) OR (XL7)? If yes to both, please post your order status (e.g. order confirmed; VIN assigned; build-date scheduled; etc).and update here if it changes. I'm curious to know if trucks...
  15. 2024 FORD RV & TRAILER TOWING GUIDE

    Google led me to the 2024 RV & Trailer Towing Guide at this URL from this forum: extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/https://www.f150gen14.com/forum/attachments/2024-ford-rv-and-trailer-tow-guide-pdf.105917/ But when I search this forum I find no thread or post relating to that...
  16. Spontaneous toggle of Nav Bread Crumbs to "Auto"?

    Has anyone had Bread Crumbs spontaneously toggle to "Auto", perhaps with a recent OTA update? I never use 'em, 98% certain I didn't change the setting (could be wrong, again), but realized I was growing an accumulation of dots around my property where I shut of my truck. Took me a while to...
  17. KB5034441: Windows Recovery Environment update for Windows 10, version 21H2 and 22H2: January 9, 2024

    I run manual update daily on my WIN 10 laptop which has no recovery partition. Every day since 1/9 when I run Windows Update (to keep up with Defender security definitions, Net framework updates, etc.), as warned by Microsoft here the referenced WRE update attempts to load and fails...
  18. Musings on the 3/4-float axle in 2024 ....

    For Gen 14 through 2023, the 3/4-float axle was part of the "Max" (53C) tow package (which was also required with the "HDPP" (Heavy Duty Payload Package). The 3/4-float axle being the subject of the potential axle-bolt failure issue. The 2024 Order Guide reveals the "Max" tow package will no...
  19. Hoping the Big3 and UAW can work together to avoid a strike [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO INSULTS]

    WIth a Thursday midnight 'deadline' looming I hope the Big3 and UAW together can manage (pardon the double entendre) to avoid a strike. Without commenting on the merits of respective 'positions', IMO there's little doubt that any strike, even 'selective' and / or short-lived, would almost...
  20. Gen 14 F150 Dometic Console Refrigerator Pre-Production Teaser

    Note: I have no affiliation whatsoever of any sort with Dometic or any of their distributors; I just happened to luck-into the opportunity described in this post via an acquaintance who works for Dometic. Some are aware of the Dometic CCF-T compressor refrigerator that’s been available to fit...
