  1. 2 different cooling circuits

    They both start out yellow but experience different heating cycles as noted above.
  2. Nitto Recon Grappler 275/65R20 (SL) - long term review(in progress)

    Really well- not as good as a dedicated snow tire- but honestly better than I expected. Alternating between 4A and then 4H when road conditions got worse, they were very stable- no sliding during acceleration, and only a little bit when breaking hard- just to test them out. We got 3 inches of...
  3. Any good experiences from PowerBoost owners

    '23 Powerboost with 15k miles- no issues so far- and easily the most well rounded vehicle I have ever owned while still getting 22 mpg.
  4. Help with buying used 21-23 Tremor

    I'd agree that $63 for a '23 Tremor with 10k miles (depending on how it's optioned) isn't a great deal. I would think $55-$60k would be reasonable- but I expect lack of inventory might hurt you a bit when looking for a Tremor as well. I'm betting you might be able to build a '24 Tremor and...
  5. Custom Built Adventure Package

    Sounds like a blast! …and if you’ve got a PB you can sleep in air conditioned bliss if it gets hot!
  6. Starting Engine from a Stop

    So this is inherently subjective- but except in rare cases when I start on an incline, I can almost always get the truck's mass moving to 10-15 mph before I indeed have to initiate more throttle that triggers the ICE. This is almost without exception significantly more than "a few feet"-...
  7. Remembering Drive Mode on Startup

    Other than the initial prompt at start up- I don’t believe there is a way to do that currently…
  8. Nitto Recon Grappler 275/65R20 (SL) - long term review(in progress)

    Zero additional road noise for these as compared to the stock Hankooks.
  9. Nitto Recon Grappler 275/65R20 (SL) - long term review(in progress)

    Only 13k on mine- but they are very good in the rain- and just got 4 inches of snow that I had to drive through last night. Roads were horrible, but they handled really well- certainly not as well as a dedicated snow tire- but easy acceleration with no slipping in 4H- braking was good with some...
  10. Best tool to remove oil filter on PowerBoost motor?

    Were you able to confirm which size fits the FL-500s best? I’ve got the flute style that fits on the end, but that filter is on there so tight, I’ve partially stripped all the threads trying to get it off and just gave up for fear of tearing the filter housing. I’m going to need to try a...
  11. Replaced my battery with an H8. My observations:

    I've never gotten a Ford pass notification for low battery, but I get these kind of drops and spikes back up (drop to 12.1 from 12.5- return to 12.55 and level out)- sometimes exceeding voltage before the dip. In fact, when I park the truck after arriving at work, I can almost always find a...
  12. Motorized gear shift lever???

    Yes- I agree that it never inspires confidence when I raise or lower the shifter- but, on the flip side, I've only ever lowered it 2-3 times in the year I've owned the truck. I would submit that it's a really poor design that fortunately for most will only be utilized sparingly.
  13. 2023 Powerboost-Trailer Brake System Fault

    ‘23 PB and I’ve had this happen twice in the year I’ve had the truck- once in a heavy down pour. Flashed on and off probably a dozen times- and then was fine. Second time was last week in 5F degree weather- flashed on and off a couple times and went away again….Ii may check the fuses- but I’m...
  14. Engine Block Heater Thermal Photos (3.5L EcoBoost V6)

    Cool pics; Is there any way to calibrate the thermal sensor? The -22.2 F reading seem a little strange given the air temps you quoted..or no?
  15. 4A vs 4H Snow driving

    When I've used it, it feels like it reduces throttle tip-in to keep excess engine torque from spinning the wheels at low RPMS's- but that's anecdotal.
  16. Cup Holder Fail and Ford has Stopped Supplying

    Despite my low expectations of dealer service, this still depresses me that they couldn't provide you with the correct answer for fixing this issue.
  17. What did you do TO your F-150 today? 🙋🏻‍♂️

    I really like those- especially the door and center console trim. I went the carbon fiber route for the steering wheel and console- about $70 for both.:
  18. 5.0 vs PB runs

    Not true at all; I’ve learned at least as much from you on the 5.0 as I have from any other single subject on these forums. Simultaneously, I also feel like you may be wearing your 5.0 fandom a little close to the vest…. Which is fine- but it is what it is. Just own it brother! Both of...
  19. 5.0 vs PB runs

    Are you purposely, and repeatedly missing his point completely?…. And ironically simultaneously validating his point.
  20. Powerboost 2027?

    40! Wow- every road is downhill where you live! I’ve seen 35 a few times on some short trips- but I’ve never sniffed 40.
