I decided to replace my 2015 Honda Fit with a new Ford Regular cab short bed with the 5.0 right before Christmas last year. So the first thing I found in research was sticker shock! New trucks cost way way more than I remembered. The second thing was how dependent on technology they were like...
There seems to be a wide range of owner experiences when there new truck has problems..For some it's a minor inconvenience. Ford will tow there truck to a dealership and a helpful service advisor gets right to it and after confirming the problem hands them the keys to a nice high trim loaner...
I have a 2024 RCSB ordered with Granger and like many folks waiting for there truck to be built I'm trying to make a plan for modifications after it gets delivered. I went with a 2 wheel drive and since it's a XL with the 101-A package I will get steel wheels and let's say non premium tires. So...
I ordered a 2024 Regular Cab XL short bed in early April and if you like that configuration Ford really limits your options this year.. So forget the Pro Power 2000 watts bigger trucks can get we can't even get the 400 watt dash plug! So I have looking to see what can be done to add additional...
I just ordered a 2024 RCSB XL but before I did I searched for a 2023 with the 5.0 and Sync 4 ..I found very very few XLT's and even fewer in 2 wheel drive. I didn't want a white truck or long bed and that eliminated all but one or two..
So why is a regular cab short bed treated like a Redheaded...
I was watching a dealership video on a 2024 regular cab XL F-150 and as they panned over the factory Window sticker there it was..A $2,460.00 "Market Adjustment" sticker! That's the reason I'm taking the long flight to sunny Iowa later this summer.. Have any of y'all seen one yet?
I'm waiting on mine (2 wheel drive)and now that a few of y'all have received your truck I'm hoping you can answer a few questions.. I'm getting the base XL and wanted to know what kind of spare tire and wheel came with yours? Is it a temporary tire and rim or matching to the other 4?
Did you get...
I just ordered my new truck yesterday and looked at the tow rating..9,000 lbs??? But I haven't even seen a picture of a regular cab short bed towing anything lolol! It does have the 5.0 and 3.73 locker and I'm sure it's capable of some towing but looking at Ford's towing guide it's pretty...
After almost 5 months I finally got my new F-150 Ordered TODAY!! It truly is a happy day for me.. From Granger of course!! It's not a expensive truck, in fact it's about as low price as you can get, but it is perfect for me. Iconic Silver Metallic 2×2 Regular cab XL short bed I only went with a...
Ever since I first started looking and researching a new F-150 back in December I've tried to look at all regular cab threads, especially build threads, to get a better idea how I wanted to configure a truck to fit my needs and especially my budget. After hours of reading and looking I knew I...
I was looking at a window sticker on a 2024 XL regular cab 2 wheel drive short bed today and seen a option listed for all terrain tires..265-17 I believe for $285.00..I wish I could order that for mine lolol! I believe it along with a power seat and a few other things are available for fleet...
I'm now torn between the two.. I have been going with Carbonized Grey from the very start and nothing else for weeks on the 'build and price' tool but after looking at some videos of Iconic Silver trucks.. I wonder if that would be a better choice for a XL regular cab short bed. I do plan to...
I'm getting a 2024 XL Regular cab 2 wheel drive and have thought about adding tow hooks 'just in case' the 3.73 locker gets me trouble lol! Has anyone else did or thought about adding them? Same for skid plates to protect the underside. I'm not planning to lift the truck or add bigger tires but...
I had to delay ordering my 2024 Regular cab XL due to a OBCEAN homeowners insurance bill down hear in Florida.. What would be a reasonable date for delivery in Iowa? I hated to wait to order but had no choice..
I LIKE grey... Infact I'm ordering a Carbonized Grey RCSB. BUT there's a LOT of grey plastic on the interior! Especially on a XL but even on the highest trims. Seat base, dash door panels ect..Has anyone dyed or painted parts of the interior plastic?
I'm getting a 2024 XL regular cab short bed 2×2 and trying to decide how much I want to drop it.. I'm not going to race or tow but do want the truck to be easier to get in handle better for daily driving and look great. Most of the dealerships 'sport' truck builds use a 3-5 drop and many custom...
I'm getting a regular cab 2024 XL that doesn't come with the 400 watt inverter and am looking for ideas to add it when it gets here. I would like to have a plug in the dash and one in the bed simular to the factory ones on the higher trims. BUT since it would be a completely new system I would...
I'm ordering a 2024 single cab XL short bed (only the 5.0!) and try as I have looked I can't find quarter mile ET's for a 2023 single cab short bed bone stock with no tune or power mods. My truck will come with a 3.73 locker. I hope it's in the 13's as my Brother David's Corvette barely breaks...
I'm ordering a 2024 single cab short bed in 2 wheel drive and I KNOW the factory 17" steelies and tires have to go. I haven't had a truck in over a dozen years and since I'm in Florida snow is not a issue but wet traction is. I don't particularly like the 22" 'look' and am leaning towards 18"...
I'm really glad I am NOT ordering a high trim new 2024 after reading about so many problems on the 2021-2023 trucks..I almost wish I hadn't gone in 5 pages of this sub forum lol! I understand there's a lot of folks with no problems at all but what worries me is all the problems caused by updates...
