So, when I first brought this idea, there was, shall we say, reasonable doubt. I showed proof of concept, enough to satisfy me, here, https://www.f150gen14.com/forum/threads/bed-or-receiver-mount-crane.23233/ Today was the real test and I wasn't disappointed. Bro and Sis in law don't really...

Happened the first time the other day. Both front windows. Then the passenger worked properly but had to use the window select height part of the switch, to close the driver's side. I've read the several threads about it and didn't find a rock solid cause. Lubing the seals, an update glitch...

Anyone used either one, on a Gen 14 Ford? Thinking of lifting ~350 lbs, without tailgate removal and swing it into the bed. The specific purpose, would be to load an RV waste toter, when boondocking. I know there are macerators but that doesn't appeal to me. Kinda running through the pros and...

I said I love the truck and that it has been beyond my expectations and that is true. I also said I wouldn't pull punches if that changed. So, I'm tinkering around, trying to stop the remote features disabled warning and the new Service Charging System Soon warning. Gave it a full charge last...

Just got back from 100 mile round trip and still getting this at each start up. Been going on for a few weeks. Showed up just after an OTA. What do you think?

Just finished installing 600ah of Lithium, a Multiplus 3K and upgraded the solar charger, for the eventual 1000 watts expansion on the roof.

Hi all, long time no talk. Love the truck, its been trouble free, other than a low battery and needing a charge, lots more than I'm used to. Never left me sitting, just a warning on Ford Pass, that remote features were disabled, with the rec the drive it. Since I don't drive much, or most...

Hi all. Still loving my truck. Its a technological marvel and so far, not a whisper of problems. Reason for the post, is wondering about trip planners that are good at fuel stops. Reason that is a concern, is the towing mileage, which is less than I was hoping. I see some of you with TTs...

Tiny. The size of a small band aid, would be plenty. Spun the jack on my TT to clear the gate but when lowered, the tailgate still touches the latch on the TT hitch. Just barely but still ... I know such things exist but I've no experience with them. Seems I recall seeing something that you...

I've been watching and reading Nate Yarbrough for several yrs. now. Between he and Will Prowse, I don't know of better sources on the subject. Here is a start to finish build he recently did on a solar ready TT. Mine will be bigger and all of it under the bed but its still handy to see the...

I did not pony up for waterproof connectors, for the cords I made to run the house, or camper. I used 10ga household flat wire, mainly because I had it and I wanted it thin enough to close the tailgate with the tonneau closed. I may upgrade the connectors and to marine grade flexible wire at a...

Sorry if this has been covered before but was testing PPOB with my camper last eve and I'd either read, or saw a vid, don't recall but a way to beat the double honk, is to remove the key through one of the back doors. No climbing over seats or anything weird, or difficult. 1) PPOB on...

Its not like I was avoiding it, just never felt the need, or even the curiosity before yesterday. Normal has all I've needed and more than I've ever had. ECO is nice, if you're in that kind of mood. Tow haul did its job. Once during a rain, after being really dry for a long time, I used...

Not for me, for the truck. Though, I've never towed anything as long or high before. 20 some footers hauling light farm machinery or cars around, is not the same as a 30' long, 11' high, 8' wide wall. Even if the weights aren't that different. Talked to the travel trailer salesman yesterday...

I ordered a new WeighSafe Middleweight WDH, with the 8,500lb. bars. They sent the 12,500 bars Called them, they said they'd ship the right bars right away for an exchange. My trailer will max out at 7590 and while I don't expect to ever get there, because it would mean I brought a literal...

Not quite 2 months and a fuzz over 1200 miles. Flawless performance, right at 22 MPG avg. No warnings or notifications, until just now when I saw this warning on Ford Pass. My routine trips are short. 8 miles to town to run errands and another back. Electrically, I haven't babied it, welcome...

I have a known good (checked on my and my Wife's computers) external CD player. Plugged it into the USB port in the under dash cubby and it only recognizes it as a charge only device. Hit the source button in the audio section and there is no USB source to choose from. I've been through the...

A friend was over yesterday. He has a 2021 F150 XL 5.0. 4x4 long bed, crew cab. 30 some K miles and has had zero problems. There is no battery under the rear seat. I didn't think to check the size of his engine cranking battery. Is it only the powerboosts that have the extra battery, or is it...

My truck came with a 245/75 R17 as a spare. I'm not one to push my luck much re spares. When ever I' have a flat, whatever I was doing stopped and a trip to the tire shop was done instead. Because yes, I'm one of those guys who has had 2 flats, on the same trip so, lessons learned. Not crazy...

Next weekend, I'm gonna have to drive through a large area that is undergoing resurfacing and sealing. Miles and miles of it. Anyway, because for several decades, my job had my truck off road and in the mud, more or less everyday, if I ever had it, the detailing gene was beaten out of me a long...
