The link you provided is an 18 year old study by an industry trade organization of wind tunnel drag differences of tonneau covers on trucks that are at least two generations out-of-date. They had to extrapolate theoretical data to conclude there "could" be a 1.8% improvement in fuel economy...
The tailgate is in the giant low pressure area behind the cab. Unless you can induce laminar flow from the air coming off the cab you cannot change the CoD in any meaningful way. A bed topper that connects the top of the cab with the top of the tailgate might reduce CoD. I doubt that's even...
Good plan. I also shoot for about once per month but if I'm being honest it's less than that. My plan is always to charge to 100% before I know I'm going to drive but it seems I rarely know when I'm going to drive or forget to charge when I do know. I'm on call for work and my "routine" driving...
I charge to 85% except when I need more. There is a downside to this though.
If you experience a battery module failure without a DTC or IPC message you will only discover it when you NEED the extra range. This happened to me last summer when I attempted to charge to 100% the night before a...
It's not glue, it's double sided tape. 3M makes different widths and thicknesses. You just need to find the right size.
I replaced the tape on some trim on my golf cart last year. It was pretty easy but I only needed to attach an "I" so there was minimal trimming.
Hang an extra fob in a convenient place in your garage?
Don't lock the truck while in the garage?
My solutions are based on my understanding of the problem, which is probably wrong.
My pipeline was other F150s. Years before the Lightning was announced I was under my 2010 F150 Lariat for an oil change . While waiting for the oil to drain and avoiding the scolding hot catalytic converter I was inspecting the transmission tail piece and drive shaft that I had replaced in a...
It's an inspection of the air deflector. If it's falling off they will reattach or replace it.
On his podcast, Doug Demuro mentioned that Ford had entered into a consent decree with NHTSA due to past recall issues. As a result they are being super conservative when issuing recalls, hence the...
I have it. ALL the modules on my truck were updated in August or September while my dealership was troubleshooting a bad battery module. Once the required modules are updated you need to turn on the Sync toggle using ForScan. The process and requirements are outlined in the ForScan thread.
Tell me you don't live in Southeast Michigan without telling me you don't live in Southeast Michigan.
Next thing you'll say is roads are smooth, I bet.😂
