I've been offline most of the day due to flying from JAX to Vegas. I'm out here for work for a week. Truck was delivered today to Chapman. Special thanks to @pkinneb for these spy photos. Reached out to Chapman about scheduling pick up for next Friday. We'll fly direct from Vegas to PHL now.

Happy for all of y'all getting your trucks.

Mine arrived yesterday, but out of town for Thanksgiving

So I’ve had my powerboost for about a week now. It’s been amazing. I’m in construction so the generator is a huge help. But, I think I found the best use for it! CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS!!!

That’s awesome!
@Ford Motor Company, send this to your marketing department!

When we make the 1 hour drive to my in-laws on Christmas day I plan on wrapping a few big boxes and lighting them up with Christmas lights.

With 2 hours left in my trip back home, I needed to put this out there. This powerboost engine has ridiculous “let’s pass this guy” power! My only complaint on the whole truck is how temperamental the adaptive cruise is. I also confirmed that you can turn on multiple cameras while going 75.

At least it wasn't 6 mph all the way home!! Having grown up about a half hour from Chapman Ford and being assigned in WashDC, I've spent hours on the stretch of I-95 going through Phillie.

I've found in my wife's BMW that the adaptive cruise control has me approaching stopped traffic much too abruptly. I usually turn it off as I'm approaching traffic either braking or coasting (recharging the hybrid engine) and then turning it back on to stop the car and deal with stop and go traffic. It certainly takes some getting used to.

Also, not a fan of hand checks every 10 seconds. Can’t a guy Text and drive in peace?!? lol

Love to hear about the power and cameras. I've driven a few 26' box trucks towing a car trailer, and would have loved to have had a similar arrangement to watch the wheels while in narrow construction areas. As it was I watched ahead and left mirror, and my oldest kid watched right mirror, saying "good", "on the line", "6 inches over the line", etc. Technology just replaced needing a kid.

i mean. I’m not advising it….but a 2.5 lb ankle weight attached to the steering wheel can be effective.

So I have to ask what exactly is this? I haven't noticed anything like that going west.
