Just sent back my one year survey on my 21 f150 screw cab short bed, Turning radius absolutely sucks. They say it turns a 47' circle, that would make it a 23 1/2' Turning radius. I know I used to be able to easily do a 'U' turn on our main Street, can't even come close now. It's going to be...
There's a local am station out of Aitkin, Minn. that plays the best classic rock of any station I've found including Sirius. Very nostalgic with hits I haven't heard in years. I'm sure the younger listeners probably wouldn't appreciate it much though.
Just curious, are most of you with the 3.5EB using regular (87) or premium (91) octane. Owners manual sort of hints at a preference for 91. Just wondering if it makes that much difference? I'm still on my first tank of gas and I'm assuming the dealer didn't spring for premium. Still getting 20 mpg.
Seems the right place to ask this question. Okay, I admit it was my bad, I thought the console work surface was included in the 502a package, and it wasn't. Anyone know if that's a simple swap out for the current console cover. Doesn't seem like it should be that difficult.
Just picked up my Lariat yesterday. Ordered it February 2nd, it came in a couple of weeks ago, but do to our sons passing, yesterday was as soon as I could get it. It was built in the Kansas City plant. Neither I nor my salesman can figure out how I got so lucky that my order went...
I don't know who is more reassured by those posts, Eric or me. Mine has been sitting at the dealership for for going on two weeks. I'm finally picking it up on Monday. I'm looking forward to it! Good luck to all, although God willing we won't have to rely on luck!
I really like the looks of this and will probably follow the same procedure. I am curious though, why not just spray with Rustoleum rust converter? I know that seems like the lazy man's way of doing it, I'm just curious why this wouldn't be much easier.
For those who are interested, I ordered mine on 2/2, and it just rolled off the transport yesterday. Unfortunately our son passed away and I'm 500 miles away making funeral arrangements and not sure when I'll see it. All of a sudden it doesn't seem that important.
After seeing all the ongoing problems I'm becoming increasingly gun shy of even accepting my new one when it comes in. I was hoping as time went on some of this would go away, but it seems to be getting worse!
I'm going with what is on my current truck, a LineX spray in liner, combined with a good rubber mat. I like the sprayed liner because it looks nice and extremely durable. My mat is from Ford with a big F150 logo in the center. Custom fit and looks nice. It probably weighs around 30 lbs which...
Something I don't hear much about anymore is vehicle break in. How far do I have to drive the 3.5 before I can put the cruise on for a 400 mile trip, less rest stops etc? Used to be for the first 500 miles you were supposed to vary your speed. Don't want to create headaches. Thanks.
My wife's 18 Explorer came with Hankook, looked in Consumer Reprts and they were rated terrible in snow and ice. Took the vehicle back and traded them for Michelin. My salesman said they have no idea what tire will come in on their trucks. I told him if it came in with Hankooks we were going to...
I purchased the Ford 8yr/85k $100 deductible ESP. Cost was $2650. That's on a F150 Lariat with most of the goodies. The cost was non-negotiable and did not vary between dealers.
Old fart here. Hello from Central Minnesota. Currently have a 2005 F150 Lariat except for the first 10 or so miles I've put everyone of the last 148k carefree miles on it. I still absolutely love that truck, but alas it's that time. Let someone else enjoy it for awhile. I have a 2021 Lariat EB...
I really appreciate all the opinions of everyone. So if it were you, and this could possibly be the last new truck you buy, would you buy a 21, or possibly wait for a more refined 22. Thanks again in advance!
I'm new here but would appreciate people's thoughts. My current F150 2005 Lariat is in excellent condition, very dependable, and runs like a top. It has the 5.4 Triton engine, with 150k on it. I've ordered a 2021 Lariat with the 3.5 EB. However, after reading numerous threads on the 2021, I'm...
