  1. Changing color of truck on screen and cluster

    The best solution to this problem is simply to have a blue truck. Problem solved! -Team Smoked Quartz
  2. “Bubble” on instrument cluster?

    Just to add my data point, it 100% appears when I start my PowerBoost for the first time of the day, stays while I back out of my driveway, and then goes away as soon as I put it into drive. And then I don't notice it appearing the rest of the day.
  3. Platinum Powerboost Noises

    If that's a speaker they put one hell of a good quality speaker in there to put out a sound that rich. I think it really is just the motor; you can hear the sound relatively equally well from all around the front of the truck, unlike the reverse bell which is distinctly in the front driver side...
  4. PowerBoost F150 will run without engine battery hooked up...

    This news makes an experience I had last month even stranger. I went out to go somewhere and.... the door won't open. Actually, the mirrors didn't pop out to greet me. What is going on? I use the hardware key to open the door and it is absolutely dead inside. No idea how or why, I had driven it...
  5. Platinum Club

    Nice! Not just Platinum Club, but Smoked Quartz club as well, the best combination. :) Your truck order is almost exactly the same as mine; I ended up scoring a dealer stock truck that had everything I wanted except the Max Tow Package, so I jumped on it.
  6. 3 months in, found a new feature! What surprised you months after purchase?

    Seattle was hot enough this last weekend I was struggling to keep things cool (I hadn't figured out how Auto worked yet). I had "Max AC" enabled and was driving, of course the fans were blowing 100% to cool the cabin down. My daughter texted me, and as google started to read the message to me...
  7. Just me, or do they brakes suck?

    They definitely take some getting used to, but I've been driving mine now for a few months and 1200 miles and it feels perfectly natural. I read elsewhere that they take a little getting used to because they are electric and regenerative; my first few days definitely felt rough. I felt sorry for...
  8. Lane Keeping Questions

    I used to have this before I figured out what works for me. I felt like I was always fighting the truck on the turns, and I also had a sense that it was never centered -- I was always in a tug of war with the truck and it never centered. If you "agree" with the direction the truck is going...
  9. Black dot on speedometer

    Picture? I don't recall seeing a black dot
  10. Brake pedal not showing power on 7-pin Trailer hookup, possibly easy fix?

    I recognized that this is what you were saying in your first post now, I just didn't understand it yet. :) It's a good callout about how to set gain, the only thing I've read was "just keep increasing until the trailer is noticeably pulling on you" which doesn't tell me a good starting point...
  11. Brake pedal not showing power on 7-pin Trailer hookup, possibly easy fix?

    Super helpful! This makes sense, and caused me to back up and ask what I should have asked to start with: "how do these things work anyway?" I had just assumed there was only the on/off style and decided there was a problem since I couldn't get a reading pressing the pedal. So I looked it up and...
  12. Brake pedal not showing power on 7-pin Trailer hookup, possibly easy fix?

    At this point I don't even have a trailer to try it on, I'm just using a multimeter and testing pins so I can solve problems before they turn me away when I go to pick up the rental. I'm looking for alligator clips to attach so I can test while moving to see if the suggestion about the voltage...
  13. Brake pedal not showing power on 7-pin Trailer hookup, possibly easy fix?

    This is great insight; I will have to see if I can figure out how to test this. We're renting the trailer next week, but if it doesn't pass all of the checks they won't let me take it. If It's only applying signal based on movement, that would at least be easy to prove by hooking up and towing...
  14. Brake pedal not showing power on 7-pin Trailer hookup, possibly easy fix?

    I just bought my 2021 last month, and now that I am just over 1000 miles I am planning on renting a travel trailer next week. This is my first time towing, so I don't know how everything works quite yet but I decided to take a multimeter and test my 7-pin connector. All lights work as expected...
