You mentioned you're getting 22 MPG @ 75 MPG and I say that you're getting results that are pretty in line with expectations. Your truck is heavier than mine and has tires similar to mine (I have slightly oversized Michelin Defenders), and I get 20 - 23 at 75 on the highway most days. Our...

I'm not hating, I'm just addressing the 16 mpg thing for the people who use Google search...there's like 100 threads about people asking why their Powerboost doesn't get the same MPG as a Honda Civic lol. Personally some days I feel like being efficient, and some days I put her in sports mode...

Your truck is heavier than most PBs (Limited 4x4). All your mods alter airflow, the single most important factor in mileage. Manufacturer MPG is figured at 55 MPH. Getting 16 MPG going 75-80 should not be a surprise.

One thing I think Ford underestimates is that most people who buy F-150s are buying them as "do everything" vehicles that are their ONLY vehicles. They are family haulers, grocery getters, mobile offices, road trip cruisers, tow vehicles, and cargo haulers. The lightening sounds awesome but...

Today I received the 23-PU0630-YAW-RT update. I’m always eager to get a PCM update without having to break out the mongoose. After driving a while until the hybrid drive started kicking in again, I got a nice bump in MPG. Not nearly enough data to make a judgement other than it feels like it...

Job 1 2021. Almost rolled over 55,000 miles. Transmission replaced around the 5k mile mark. Ever since then, it's been problem free.

I love blacked out trucks but I also love chromed out trucks. My dad was a huge influence. When he saw my azure black with chrome package truck, he said "Now that's what a nice truck should look like." Cliche as it sounds, in many ways I'm a chip off the ol block.

When I bought my PB I had to have the transmission completely replaced at 5k miles. 50k miles later, she still puts a smile on my face like nothing was wrong. I'm convinced I got a good trans tech that day. No matter how much the entire support process pissed me off, I am genuinely pleased...

Thanks to the ECU thread and the tireless work of the wizards who maintain it, my truck is on 6.8.0 and has been receiving OTA updates pretty regularly for more than a year now.

Better it fails now than midlife.

You would would want to cut the tank size by more than 1/3 for a bigger battery? 18 gallons is the gas tank my Hyundai Sonata had lol. Absolutely not, the range of the PB is one of the upsides not the downsides. You could make the battery 10x bigger and you would not get nearly as much range...

Here's a link to Blackstone's own document to help understand what their report tells you : https://www.blackstone-labs.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Understanding-Engine-combined.pdf Oil analysis can show you things such as coolant leaks happening that's getting into the engine, can clue you...

$30 is super cheap to get a detailed analysis of what's going on inside of your engine. Most of the time it's probably normal, but sometimes you may see a spike of some material that can give you an idea of something that's getting ready to fail. In summary, it's just a tool to help get ahead...

There was a lot of concern about the new 5.0 with CD when the 2021s came out. When I was truck shopping, CD pushed me to the powerboost platform because I figured if I was going to roll the dice on reliability, I may as well get cool tech. I think the last few years have shown it to be a...

I don't think weight scaling came out until the 22 year models. The software will have an icon for it though.

You are the first person to get it! My truck's name Bobby, hotspot is "MCRN-Tightbeam-Relay" lol. Love the name of your truck. I think a "Tachi" or even a "Baratnas Gas" logo would be super fitting for yours. I got my sticker from Redbubble, they have a decent amount of Expanse stuff these...

I said this in the other forum, but CHECK THE FUSE BOX. Reseat all the fuses. 2021s had a lot of trucks with loose fuses that caused a lot of weird electrical gremlin looking issues. Don't trust them on the new battery replacement. Get your own battery and swap it out personally. I know...

I'm very suspect of Chrysler products myself, though I've heard that their RAM line has been getting better in quality over the years. It's not like Ford and GM have made it super difficult to catch up, considering all the recalls and issues we've seen over the years. That being said, what I...

My best friend's grandpa always showed up with the newest and coolest vehicle, and the latest and greatest tech. I asked him one day why did he always have the latest? He told me like he loves being asked that question: "the man who dies with the most toys wins!" And I think about that a...

Honestly this is a pretty innovative approach. I'l definitely be watching this new RAM with a great deal of interest.
