  1. PowerBoost Oil Change Interval. Do you trust the oil life meter?

    Did Ford replace your cam phasers to fix your 2019? I wish they would add an electric prelube pump to the engine. I think that would help the cam phaser issue and it would prevent a lot of wear in the engine over its life.
  2. PowerBoost Oil Change Interval. Do you trust the oil life meter?

    In my previous 2015 and 2018 F-150s both with 3.5 l Ecoboost I would go more by the oil life monitor. My philosophy was that’s what they put it in the vehicle for. Well my 2018 developed the dreaded cam phaser rattle on start up at about 20,000 miles. It was a lease so I didn’t worry about it...
  3. If you had to order again would you still get the PowerBoost motor?

    I plan on running my 30 ft Keystone passport while driving down the road form my 7.2 kw power on board. I haven’t decided if I will use the large 30 Amp 4 prong plug or just run a heavy duty 12 gauge 20 amp cord. I have to secure a cord under the camper and run it all the way to the back end...

  5. Trucks sitting in Detroit

    I checked my new 2021 underneath the other day and it wasn’t too bad. The rear axel was 98 % painted, the outer flanges were not completely painted. Frame looked good. Im more worried about rodent damage to electrical wiring from sitting almost 3 months in a lot. I live in Michigan and while...

    I think they remove it within a couple days of it being in transit or delivered. I tried to go back to mine few days after I received my truck and it doesn’t recognize my order number and vin anymore. I called my dealer soon as it changed to delivered and they had it and he went out and did a...
  7. Winter Weather Advisory: MPG and your Powerboost Hybrid in Cold Weather

    I live in Northern Michigan and did a little testing to see how much it changes engine warm up times, temps were in upper 30s low 40 s.
