  1. Will Ford do a PHEV Powerboost?

    I’m pretty sure all of the major plug-in hybrids now have a thing where they will burn all gas occasionally just to keep everything moving good.
  2. Will Ford do a PHEV Powerboost?

    I was able to find the data that concerns me with the ram charger. 545 miles on a 27 gallon generator is the claim by Ram. Thats 20 MPG. If that’s best case scenario, that could be a little disappointing. 130-145 miles of EV range is also probably best case scenario. So you may have 70-80 ev...
  3. 2024 Lariat at Dealer (Agate Black)

    Just thought y'all might find it funny I texted my brother a picture of the 2024 with DRL on and he said "Looks like Toyota lights..." lol He's a 2018 F150 owner.
  4. 2024 Lariat at Dealer (Agate Black)

    WOW!! I know I can't be the only freak out there that has actually purchased a vehicle based on the DRL on the front. Ever since AUDI popularized the fancy DRL on cars I can't get enough of them. I think they're the coolest change on vehicles in the last 10+ years. before my lightning I had...
  5. Will Ford do a PHEV Powerboost?

    Whoa! That's super... not great. How does that exactly happen considering Ford says you'll get 24MPG in the city and the HWY. What type of driving sends it that low? That makes me feel a little better about the Lightning. If I got a Powerboost I would be expecting 24MPG+
  6. Will Ford do a PHEV Powerboost?

    Great questions. So a few things. 1. I am a tall guy, and still got young kids in car seats. I love the huge amount of room the cab has, only time I can be driving and not feel my kids legs in my back the whole time. So what's where the family car part comes in. 2. I do really use the truck...
  7. Will Ford do a PHEV Powerboost?

    Yes, that is very intriguing. They are using the method where it's powered by a generator basically when it's running on gas. I forget how I did it, I think I took RAMs stated total mile range, minus the EV range and then divided by whatever I could find on the fuel tank size.. and I wasn't...
  8. Will Ford do a PHEV Powerboost?

    It's such a fascinating time for vehicles. With all the COVID drama and price increases and such. I live in Rural area and always dreamed of a truck that was economical to drive as I burn a lot of miles each year. I use to price configure trucks like the Colorado Diesel and stuff all the time...
  9. Will Ford do a PHEV Powerboost?

    I think it's quite obvious a PHEV F150 would be very interesting for a lot of folks. The problem with all PHEV ever made tho, is the EV portion of their battery is always significantly smaller than we always hope they would be. While a PHEV F150 with ~100 miles of EV range would be fantastic...
  10. 2021 F150 Advanced Security Pack

    This is actually nuts. How many people out there are like yours and have the module and we don't even know it? Is there a way to test just with FORscan without even having to take anything apart? What month was your 2023 made?
  11. 2021 F150 Advanced Security Pack

    Does anyone know if these steps would work in a 2023 lightning? Whats the cheapest way someone can get into FORscan? This is my 7th F150 and I've never messed with Forscan before. But for some damn reason it's driving me nuts Ford removes features from our trucks. I can't believe I'm willing...
  12. Power-Up 6.5.0 Installed

    Help me understand what I consider some strange behavior So I got 6.4.0 December 5. Shortly after the truck kept trying to download 6.5.0 but kept failing. After a week or so, it showed that it successfully downloaded in the truck. When I pull up the latest update in the truck, it shows 6.5.0...
  13. Power-Up 6.5.0 Installed

    Well team… I’ve got a story that’s gonna defy logic for you. So I posted in the previous page that this was the first update I was having trouble with. I suspected a low state of charge due to the fact I’m not driving the truck as much anymore. But even after ensuring the truck was on for at...
  14. Power-Up 6.5.0 Installed

    This is the first update I’ve really had any trouble with. Truck downloaded 6.4.0 the other day no problem. Now it keeps saying that it’s trying to install 6.5.0 but every time something has interrupted it. It says it whether or not I let it update on its own at 1 AM or if I try to force it to...
  15. Power-Up 4.2.2 Software with CarPlay Update!

    So I got a 2021 that just got 4.2.2 but I didn’t realize the update has downloaded and was trying to install. There was no indication. other than my screen was just acting terrible, slow, bugging. I kept resetting it and it went to a solid black screen. I thought it was bricked. But when I...
  16. Power-Up 4.2.2 Software with CarPlay Update!

    Right!! For the first time I think I don’t want an update. I’m happy with 3.5.4. Should I turn off automatic updates ?
  17. 2021 Job 1 Trucks that aren't getting updates

    I can confirm a pretty big bug fix for my 2021 after getting 3.5.3 too. I had this issue where my phone woulddisconnect from Appleplay after a long phone call. It would disconnect every time in the same spot on the way home, and it wasn’t a signal issue because I wouldn’t lose the call, the...
  18. Do you think the 2021 F150's will ever get the 4.2.x updates?

    What’s in the new update? I know the last one added resizing CarPlay. What’s the new stuff ?
  19. 2021 Job 1 Trucks that aren't getting updates

    So wait. Did we get the update because I turned my stupid headlights off or did we just get it because they rolled it out last night ? 2021 job 1 truck here
