After 40,000 miles, I ditched the stock Pirellis and added General Grabber ATX in XL 275/60R20. Got what I thought was a pretty decent deal at the dealership. Honestly didn't have any complaints with the Pirellis other than they aren't a great looking tire. Too early to tell on the mpg hit, but...

Mostly just tow my 18ft Ranger aluminum boat chasing walleye and salmon across Michigan.

Installed it this spring after adding the cap to add a little extra support for towing the boat on our wonderful Michigan roads. Paired it with some Bilstein 5100 dampers and I've been pretty happy with it. Rear end doesn't sag any more, doesn't bottom out on expansion joints, and overall is...

I had the same thing happen this morning after the update. I also lost about 100miles of range on my DTE gauge (went from 150mi to E last night to 40mi to E this AM; I didn't actually lose any range, the DTE gauge was just showing lower for some reason). After about 10-mi, the truck started...

Installed Bilstein 5100's (rear only) and the standard RAS helper springs to compensate for the weight of the cap and to help control the rear end when towing the boat on our wonderful Michigan roads. Pleased with it so far!

Tis the season (finally) 😎

Had a cap installed. ARE CX Classic. The old man look is coming together 😎

If you are physically plugging your phone into your truck to use wired Android Auto, then yes, your phone will use the built-in hotspot. If you are using wireless Android Auto, and want to continue doing so, then no, your phone will not connect to the hotspot because it uses its wireless...

Just a tick over 30,000 miles on the odometer and 20 months of ownership, I've tracked mpg at the pump and in the cluster for 29,935mi (truck had about 130 miles when I bought it). Lifetime fuel economy has been 20.7 mpg; 21.4 mpg if I back out the ~2000 miles of towing at 14.3 mpg. The cluster...

My driveway isn't super sloped, but has enough of a slope that this has happened a few times with some snow/ice in the driveway. Since the rear is lighter than the front, the rear is more prone to slipping, which is the axle that is braked when in Park or with the e-brake In Park, all it takes...

My 2021 with the twin panel roof has the same musty smell. It smells like someone left wet towels in it (which isn't the literal case). Found an ArmorAll fogger that is supposed to kill odors, but concerned it'll make the interior smell like a middle school locker room and not really fix the...

At our local cesspool

Looks like a generic self-tapper. Highly doubtful it's from your truck.

I've noticed the same thing between my F150 (non-BC but has lane-centering) and my wife's 2021 Escape with the same thing. Seems like I have to fight the F150 to keep it truly centered and to make sure it knows I'm holding the wheel. For a system intended to reduce driver fatigue, it sure adds a...

I had a Hot Pepper Red 2019 Ranger before my F150, and really liked the color. In bright sunlight (when it was clean), it definitely had an orange tint to it, otherwise looked a little more like a dusty red. I definitely preferred the orange-ish side of the color (to the point I wish it was more...

I pay for and use the built in modem in my truck. My wife and I have an antiquated data plan and split 4Gb of data on our phones per month. At the moment, the $20/mo for the unlimited data on the in-vehicle modem is a cheaper and more convenient option for traveling than changing cell...

Just hit a year over the weekend (May 27th) with about 19,000 miles (pic from 2 weeks ago). Will have about 23,000 by July with some upcoming travel.

I've noticed on mine that sometimes the chimes come through the speakers, and other times it comes through the cluster itself (must be a small back-up speaker/chime in there somewhere). Not sure why it happens, as it seems to occur quite randomly. No other issues with my truck otherwise.

As others have said, the built-in Nav is adequate. The map detail leaves some to be desired (for the most part just a gray screen with a white line with the road you're on), but it'll get you where you need to go. I find myself at a 50/50 split of using the built-in nav and google maps through...

I spent about $1600 (USD) for the maintenance plan here in Michigan pretty much exactly a year ago. Covers 13 services up to 100,000 miles (one every 7500 miles). I figured dealer oil changes with tire rotation are about $125 for an F150 at my dealership, so 13 oil-changes and tire rotations...
