9k miles and I’ve only had the recalls and 1 max tow axle.
My dealership has been great thus far, which makes all the difference in my opinion. The poor people on here where their vehicles are waiting for parts for months is infuriating. While it is certainly annoying to have something that...
While I do enjoy the occasional range of 600 miles per tank, according to the guess-ometer, I personally would be ok with more usable battery with a slightly smaller tank. I picked on the 18 gallon tank, as that’s what the ranger has.
I could be wrong, but I would think that it would be more of a function of the camera and less of the power. Most of them have a battery or capacitor for this function, I think
I have the same truck as you, but a 22. I went with the Carhartt covers from Ford for just the rear. They are kind of a canvas material and seem to be pretty sturdy. Surviving large dog and 2 kids. I don’t let them turn on the rear seat warmers, but everything else is functional.
trying not to duplicate, but I would love to see:
PHEV option
PowerBoost, reduce the tank size to 18 and increase the battery
allow the PB battery to go to 10% and up to 70%
Leave the running boards down when vehicle is off
add usb port by rearview mirror
leveraging the wiper sensor, roll the...
Perhaps I missed another thread on this, but is anyone getting better fuel economy out of ECO mode? I‘ve ran a few tests over the past few months and my MPG is significantly worse using ECO than just normal. It seems that ECO really wants to keep the HV battery SOC around 56%, whereas normal...
My only gripe would be to add a plugin option. I understand that by doing so, it would cannibalize from the Lightning numbers, but it would be pretty sweet. My brother has a plugin Pacifica and can generally go most of the day without the engine kicking in.
They do this already in almost every state. Either through a higher annual registration flat fee or through odometer.

I’m sure I’m going to get flamed for this, but I wonder how the ICE market would look without it’s subsidies? Would people still cling to it due to the lower up front cost? US taxpayers pay $20billion per year in federal taxes alone to subsidize oil and gas. $1 trillion worldwide in handouts...
I would argue that the dealers are upset that they won’t make their obscene margins on the service portion. Generally speaking, EV’s require less ongoing maintenance than ICE.
I have the same. I took it in and the dealer checked the other ones on the lot and they all had the same noise. He said it seems that it’s normal although doesn’t sound right.
Glad you posted as I was struggling with how to describe it.
I’m in the same boat as you. Maps are from Sept and I took delivery in November (May build with chip hold). I went ahead and updated everything through FDRS last weekend and the maps still haven’t updated yet.
I think someone mentioned at one point the GWM needed an update and then it would...
My dealer told me that this feature stopped working due to one of the forced-delete’s. I’m not sure which one though. I’d be interested if you get it working without adding stuff.
