I decided to regain some of the mpg lost with my Nitto RG 295/60/20. After much contemplation and study I landed on the Toyo AT3 as the best compromise of off road capability and fuel efficiency. I prefer the look of 285/60/20 and Toyo offers that in a lighter package than most, but ultimately...

Not sure if it's related but I noticed the problem the day after accepting the latest non-update. (My most recent actual update was 4.2.1 done May 25th.) Navigation is stuck "loading map". CarPlay will not display in the main screen but does show on the side bar of the screen. The side bar...

How can you find out what PowerUp version you’re on? My dealer got the stuck OTA fixed and updated so that BlueCruise work but when I check for software updates it just says I’m ”up to date.” why can’t Ford just be transparent about software issues?? EVERY other electronic device I own will...

I will probably ditch the stock Hankooks after the summer. I’ll go with 285/60/20 which is to me, the perfect upsize - I tend to like the “factory +” look - improved but not obvious. I’ve pretty much narrowed it down to BFG KO2 or Toyo AT3. I want an aggressive look but spend a good bit of time...

What’s your highest Distance to Empty reading? For the last week I had fairly ideal driving conditions. Not long after my last fill up I noticed my DTE showing 766. I know it’s not a realistic number over an entire tank but it’s amusing to see.

A while back I scraped one wheel against a rock. Today I took a shot at repairing the damage. I used a couple of sanding/buffing kits from Harbor Freight and Optimum Hyper Polish. It’s far from perfect but did make a big improvement. Also, it appears that even though Platinum wheels are polished...

I mostly browse the site on my iPad. Lately ads have started popping up on the right side taking up about ⅓ of the screen. It doesn’t happen on every page load and will go away if I reload the page. Anyone have an idea how to make it stop?

We recently bought a Toyota Sienna hybrid. I discovered Toyota explicitly warns against using a hybrid car to jumpstart an ICE vehicle. You can jump another hybrid or jumpstart the Sienna with an ICE. I don’t see any warnings like this in the F150 manual. Everything about jumpstarting sounds...

Decided to tone down the silver platinum tailgate. I used Vvivid Ultra Gloss black wrap. BEFORE PIC

I’ve been wanting to do something to improve my platinum wheels. Today I added Vvivid Ultra Gloss black automotive film to the center flat areas. Applying film is pretty difficul, especially if you’re not experienced (I‘m not!) The difficulty comes in fitting the excess film around the deep...

Just noticed the American flag dash trim. Well done Ford.

Installed a Bed Rug mat and Undercover Swing Case. Super simple installations. I agree with other reviewers- theirs a LOT of room to make the Swing Case bigger. I would really prefer to see it hug the wheel well. Similar thoughts on the Bed Rug. I wish it were cut to very closely fill the bed...

Swapped out the fold flat storage for the Duha under seat storage from my 2017. I think the fold flats would have been fine if I didn’t already have the Duha. I keep all my tools under the seat so I’ve never had the need to put anything large in the cab. Slight differences in how they’re...

We recently sold our Pacifica with significant rear seat entertainment options for the kids. It’s looking like the F150 may be the new family road trip machine. What are you guys doing for movies/entertainment for the kids on long trips?

I just did my first fill up today so haven’t been able to do any hand calculations. How accurate have you found the computer calculations to be? My 2017 was almost 2 mpg more optimistic than reality.

This looks like a promising option for phone mounting. I’m thinking about pairing it with a Ram Mount wireless charger. Does anyone know of a discount code for Ram? https://getoffroam.com/collections/ford/products/phone-mount-kit-2021-ford-f150#specifications
