  1. Is FDRS Down for anyone else?

    I did a whole bunch of updates last night to un-eff my truck that seems to do 1 OTA and then get brain damage, and stopped after a long IPMA update. This morning, I can't login, and the "Network Test" shows various servers coming up and down, and the Login server apparently on permanent...
  2. Dumb question on wheels... can I replace my 20" factory wheel with 17" Enkei RPT1 Wheels?

    In 30 years of owning vehicles, I've never actually changed the wheels from factory. However, I may be picking up an offroad trailer that has 17" Enkei RPT1 Wheels with BFG K02 35" tires. I believe the previous owner had a Raptor so used these wheels on the truck so you could interchange them...
  3. Got the trailer recall fix via OTA!

    So I fixed the “stuck 1.7.1” updates (and recorded the painfully long YT video) myself, and a major question was whether I’d get OTA updates again without dealer intervention. Well, starting last week my F-150 has been at the all you can eat update buffet, and got 2 power up’s and just got an...
  4. Failed 1.7.1 OTA attempts to get to BlueCruise via FDRS Log

    I figured I'd chronicle my attempt to get my '21 Platinum Powerboost working with the long-promised, often delayed BlueCruise feature. I picked up a lot of nuggets from the massive FDRS thread, but wanted to provide a narrative/experience specific to trying to recover from a failed 1.7.1 OTA...
  5. Will updating via FRDS fix OTA updates for those stuck on failed 1.7.1?

    I got my truck back from the dealer recently to do the heat shield recall and mentioned the “stuck” OTA updates. When they gave the car back they said Ford “did not recommend action at this time,” so that implied they knew of the problem but were not ready to send out the fix, which mirrors what...
  6. Video on buying process from Granger, general pricing, etc.

    All, I put together the attached video based on my buying experience from Granger. Probably lots of info the “residents” of the forum are well-aware of, but I wanted to get the word out about Granger and put everything into one place for folks. I did ask them if it was OK to post a video, but...
  7. Anyone else have lock/unlock/start disappear from the FordPass app?

    I have FordPass on my iPhone and yesterday it seems the lock, unlock, and start options all disappeared from the app. Possibly unrelated, but I also received a notice yesterday that the 1.6 “Power Up” OTA update had been installed. I’ve tried closing and opening the app a couple times to no...
  8. Seat covers for carseats?

    I swear I saw a thread about those covers that you put under carseats to prevent the leather from getting goofed up, and prevent mashed cheerios, Swedish Fish, and apple sauce from turning into a permanent addition to your leather, but my searching doesn’t find it. Anyone have a cover they put...
  9. Where to find 12V power behind rear seats in Powerboost w/ ProPower?

    I’m picking up my PB tomorrow (finally!) and going to install a couple 2-way radios behind the rear seats somewhere. I’ve heard there’s 12V power back there for the “little” 2KW inverter (AmateurPower rather than ProPower???) and was wondering if there’s something similar with ProPower, or...
  10. Trying to find the light at the end of my tonneau search

    My F-150 is finally in transit so I'm trying to pull the trigger on a tonneau cover. This is my' first truck, and I've read all the threads and dozens of reviews but have mostly ended up just as indecisive as when I started. I'm the classic "subruban truck guy" that's going to do Lowes/HD runs...
  11. Transit time from Detroit to Granger?

    Anyone have a recent Detroit build that went to Granger? I'm trying to time my flight booking out there to pickup my truck and have heard anecdotally that the delivery date estimation on the Ford tracker is generally pessimistic, but I'm not sure if that's the case from DTP to Granger. Thanks!
  12. Anyone install a two-way radio yet?

    I'm going to install a Yaesu dual band radio (not sure if I'll go FTM-300DR or FTM-400DR just yet) and would really like to see how folks are mounting the display, and doing their wiring. I'll probably go with a 3rd brake light antenna mount and a stubby dual band antenna, but might talk myself...
