yep, but hit by 277 twice in my life and i vividly remember both instances hahai'm not an electrician, but worked a summer for a relamping company changing out lights/ballasts in big box department stores. i got a 277V shock one time only and that was enough. one of the first feelings i ever experienced.
i'm a believer in the mudflaps. put them on every truck.
Here is what it states for Alberta:In Canada it law here as well, but how many trucks I see without them , a law that is barely enforced…

64 The body of a motor vehicle or trailer or a fender, mudguard or similar structure must cover the width of the tire and extend to the mid‑point of the axle when viewed from behind the vehicle.
In my case in Canada yes. The ice and snow in the winter gets caught up in my rear bumper and stops my rear sensors from workingdo our F150 really need mud flaps? if so, do all four wheels or just the rear?
I just purchased the Ford front and rear flaps for my '23. I notice though that on the rear, the trim piece only has the one hole for the Christmas tree. Wondering if the flaps would sufficiently hold with just the one screw and the mounting bar or do I need to pull that entire trim piece off and drill another hole? Anybody with a '23 had that experience and care to share what you did on that when you mounted the flaps? Thanks.i have all four ford plastic things, used points
i used to use weather techs, but these seem to work and are supported a bit better in the rear wheel area
they are surprisingly flexible, yet strong
they do keep a good bit of crap off the sides and out back

All trucks should have at least rear flaps. It stops rocks from hitting vehicles behind you. Should be mandatory.do our F150 really need mud flaps? if so, do all four wheels or just the rear?

Just came in from putting them on. A bit of finagling is all it took to get that second hole in the trim piece. All went well. Thanks.Drill the hole. I had to do this on my 2022.
You have AT tires on a truck that’s not even driven when it’s wet out? I don’t get it.I have them on my truck. Love them. They keep crap off of the sides of my truck. My truck is not even driven when it's wet outside so I hate driving through water and having traces on my fenders etc.
