Granger Ford has a great reputation. One of my worries is what if you flew into Des Moines to take delivery but saw an issue with the vehicle that wasn't caught during the pre-delivery inspection? How would that be handled if it can't be remedied the day of delivery?

So the ZF 8HP transmissions are used in more vehicles than just Stellantis. I've driven a Ram 2500 with the ZF 8HP and the transmission performance was superb. I also have 2 other vehicles with the ZF 8HP45 variant and they're incredibly reliable and durable. BMW transitioned from the DCT...

I'm curious what others would consider as a better automatic transmission.

ZF 8HP** is probably the best automatic transmission ever made.

I think there used to be other dealers that competed with Granger Ford on these forums but their forum presence largely disappeared.

You're opening up a can of worms with the non-hybrid vs hybrid debate and I'm not going to go there right now... :ROFLMAO:

One other significant negative of the non-PowerBoost Lariat is that the 2.0kw ProPower Onboard does not appear to be available based on the online configurator tool.

Sorry to revive an old thread but I'm getting closer and closer to placing an order for a 2024 SuperCew with a 6.5 ft. bed in the base Platinum trim. I went through the options and caught the distinction between the XL9/XL6 and XL5/XL7 axles which wasn't clear on Ford's build and price...

I'm glad I came upon this thread to realize the difference between the XL9/XL6 vs. XL5/XL7 rear axles? I was almost about to submit an order for the semi float axle instead of the 3/4 float axle. Ford's online build configurator tool was not descriptive.

Any idea if the 2024 F150s with the Tow/Haul package use these 35 spline axles?

@Granger Ford Do you have any additional insight on what the overall Fords production numbers (or percentages) of the Raptor vs Platinum trim will be for 2024? Will Ford end up producing more Raptors than Platinums?

Thanks for sharing.

Well, the correlation between brands is weaker, but for some manufacturers, there is a stronger correlation between their own 3PMSF rated tires non 3PMSF rated tires. I’m really waiting for a review that compares the Michelin Defender LTX M/S2 versus the Michelin Agilis CrossClimate tire. It...

Would you have been able to clear the front wheels/tires without a level (at stock ride height)?

How the heck are they still facing limited availability issues with the 3.5L EB and spray on Bedliner this late in 2024?

When you say "sway" in this context, are you talking about body roll? When most people talk about sway, they are talking about "trailer sway" which isn't remedied by a anti roll bar, but rather: 1. Proper weight distribution. 2. Tire load rating / rear axle weight rating 3. Sway control...

I agree with this assessment. L5P would be my preference for a diesel powertrain in the HD category. But for a 1/2 ton, I'd stick with a gas motor and the latest 3.5 EB generation has a better track record than the latest 5.3/6.2. I don't think I'd consider a 3.0 Duramax at the moment because...

So I under WHY the other modifications are more popular. Practically speaking the leaf spring upgrade only really exists if the manufacturer makes a leaf spring pack for a higher payload model. The F150 is an exception - I don’t think you see this option frequently for the other OEMs. Also...

Just get your truck running and trade it in unless you’re going to get it covered by warranty. In fact, if you’re under warranty, you’re better off letting the engine turn into kibbles and bits to get the replacement under warranty.

Nope, 400+ is no joke. My N55 launched a rod through the engine block and also took out my steering rack in the process at VIR. My engine oil temperature registered 290F (normal range is 220-250F) when that happened according to my data logs. But I'm surprised you went from a normal...
