I have weighed my truck/trailer combo dozens of times at many different CAT scales, and can confirm that they round to the nearest 20 lbs.
Additionally, since the scales are calibrated to weigh trucks that routinely carry 40,000 lbs or more, they're probably not tuned to precisely gage the...
My understanding is that the Nav system is required for BlueCruise to function. Since BC is a technology that Ford is really trying to highlight (and after a number of previous setbacks), I think that they’ll try hard to keep it viable as long as possible, which means keeping nav (I think).
Respectfully, I disagree. I've towed my 6500 lb. travel trailer probably 30,000 miles with a half-ton (back and forth across the country twice, plus numerous other trips). It's perfectly safe, if you stay within the towing limits (all of them; not just max towing weight that all of the...

If I recall correctly, X-plan is set at somewhere around 0.4% above the invoice price, right? (I haven't used X-Plan, so I'm just going from memory from what I've heard from others.)
You should be able to get an invoice price from Costco (you don't actually need to be a member to get an...
