  1. Will 12V battery charge with remote start?

    What a coincidence. I just ordered that exact unit. I have to leave my 2021 PB unattended for about two months, so I bought a NOCO just in case. Looks simple enough. Any issues regarding how to use it with our fancy computerized trucks?
  2. Ford Power-Up 6.2.0

    My parking brake sets automatically if I park on an incline. If I park on level ground, it does not. I suspect that was added as a new feature via some update. I don't recall it doing that when the truck was new.
  3. New iPhone 15 Pro won’t work with CarPlay

    My iPhone 15 Pro Max transitioned to CarPlay without a hitch. I plug the included double ended USC-C cord directly into the power outlet inside the forward center console (called the "media bin?") to power a magnetic charger/holder attached to the air vent next to the driver's door. When I get...
  4. Ford Power-Up 6.2.0

    My typical "tell" that an update has happened is to see the "MyView" menu show up unexpectedly. I always have "This Trip" selected, but if I see the screen change back to the top of the "MyView" menu, I know something got reset. (2021 King Ranch PB) Checking the FordPass app, sure enough...
  5. Permanently installed battery tender

    I totally agree with your Battery Tender idea. I started using them on my motorcycle long ago, and they are now on all my lesser used vehicles. I didn't know they had a 12v plug, as pictured above. I'll be getting a few of those. The only reason I can think of for not having one under the hood...
  6. Mess Up and Warning... lost key fob and wedding ring

    My "lost key" story: When my dad taught me to drive (long before electronic fobs), he always insisted that you should NEVER turn the key off without immediately removing it and putting it into your front left pants pocket. Form the habit, he said, always repeat it, and you will never lose your...
  7. Phoenix west side, window tint companies?

    He was doing it in his own home garage near W Greenway and SR-303 Loop. It was impressive. Extremely clean with no clutter and plenty of room. He buys big rolls of film, and cuts the pieces on a large printer/cutter, so there is no cutting anywhere near the truck. He has been doing it for a long...
  8. Phoenix west side, window tint companies?

    I visited this guy's shop. He was doing a 2021 Limited at the time, and I was impressed with his setup, so I signed up for an appointment to do my truck, all around. https://allprowindowtint.com
  9. How quiet is the cabin?

    Yup - piling on. Much more quiet than my former 2010 F-150. Probably the most quiet cabin I have ever owned.
  10. TSB 21-2310 Various SYNC 4 Concerns [2021 F-150]

    On my computer I can always check what software level I am at. It would be nice if we could do the same thing with our trucks. My dealer just reloaded several modules a few weeks ago, for some of the symptoms listed above, and it helped. But I wonder if I have the latest software now...? Do I...
  11. Phoenix west side, window tint companies?

    It's time to have my windows tinted, primarily for heat control. Does anybody have experience with a good company in west Phoenix? Actually, for really good service, I would be happy to drive anywhere in the greater Phoenix area. Thanks for your tips.
  12. What are this called?

    They work great, and there is a wide variety of options. I have a 14' covered utility trailer that I use to haul my motorcycle around. Inside the trailer I have rows of eTrack running from front to back so I can place the clips anywhere they are needed to tie it down. I probably have 8-10...
  13. What are this called?

    Thanks - that's worth a try - I have some of both. But, I'm pretty sure I will still have to trim them a little.
  14. What are this called?

    Yes, the eTrack clips work great. They do wiggle a bit when they are inserted, but they are mechanically sound. There are dozens of eTrack clip options. Just do an internet search. I find the BoxLink clips provided by Ford to be a little too bulky - and, I still haven't been able to insert...
  15. Active Air Dam Issue

    The first dealer I went to (Rodeo Ford, west of Phoenix) had the same reaction. At first, I don't think they even knew the air dam had a moveable component. They said a lot of owners (with previous model years, and fixed air dams) would come in and complain about the air dam being crunched, when...
  16. FordPass Update (Version 3.31.0) - SecuriAlert is GONE! (But the alerts are NOT)

    It looks like they they just went through some kind o major reset on the app. When I checked a minute ago, there was nothing listed under the "vehicle" tab. Then the app crashed (disappeared, went back to the home screen). When I relaunched the app, everything seemed to be there, including...
  17. Active Air Dam Issue

    Surprise! The backordered parts finally arrived, and they were installed at my local dealer. Looking underneath, it appears that there is a lot more clearance between the fixed versus movable part. I can easily slip my finger between the two while it is retracted (of course). I still wish there...
  18. 2021 Lead Foot Tremor delivered

    I took my truck in today to have them replace the entire Active Air Dam system. Like many others, it was caught "biting its lip" on retraction. It took about three months for the parts to arrive. Meanwhile, I got to wander around the lot and check out the other cars. There were almost no new...
  19. 2021 Lead Foot Tremor delivered

    I find that the speakers in the headrests are pretty subtle (hard to hear). They seem to help when I am on the telephone, which is remarkably clear in this truck, but maybe that's just me. I have the sound system adjusted to be centered just behind the front seats. By the way, you can do a...
