  1. Supercab door noise

    Driver's side door on 2021 Lariat supercab makes a noise on rough roads that's somewhere between a squeak and a rattle.

  7. Dearborn shut down for 1st two weeks in June (!?)

    I just received this response to my question about status of my truck from Ford rep via my dealer: "Here is the current status of the F-150 order mentioned below. It is on hold at the plant due to the microchip. I would not recommend the customer placing another order, as Ford is prioritizing...
