I don’t think anyone mentioned it yet but consider the range hit if towing plus the range hit for cold and you have a REAL problem. Many have speculated a max range of 100 mile when towing heavy loads, now take that and half that in the winter? This just solidifies my decision to get a...
I suspect you could get quite a few takers who would gladly trade you your tow mirrors for their standard mirrors. I drove both before buying and there is no comparison on the visibility difference and ease of backing up and parking. I will never buy another truck without large mirrors.
All great ideas but still impractical for long range towing. The best bet would be to put a 100 kw generator in the trailer. No matter what, the price of your trailer just doubled or maybe more so it would probably be cheaper to buy an extra F250 when you need to pull something. .
I don’t think that paint would adversely affect them but the title of the thread is Linex and I would not Linex them. Given that a fairly thin coat of ice throws them off, I would expect even the thinnest coat of Linex to do them in.
I'd have them paint it but would scritinize the hell of the job. The metalic paints can be a pain to match but given this is brand new, it shouldn't be too bad. Make sure they don't over spray anywhere and look at the blending job and paint match from a bunch of angles and in different lights...
He has it set to show the trip data. The screens attached here are for the driver assistance screen which can also be selected. Personally, I think the driver assistance view is totally worthless. I thought that it would indicate if there were vehicles on either side detected but nope.
For those who have enabled the cameras in motion, does the rear view camera have a black “full view not available” text box in the middle of it while moving? My 22 came from the factory with the cameras enabled but the rear view is basically unusable because of the box. I’m trying to figure out...
As with all things...it depends. Mostly on what your payload and options are on your specific truck. You are going to need max tow and as much payload as you can get. You will easily be over 1k of hitch weight with that trailer when it's loaded.
If you set it up right and stay within the...
Same thing here with my 22 PB. The payload mode of the onboard scales is pretty much worthless in my opinion. Mine was between 1/3 and 1/2 on day one with nothing added to the truck. If I load the truck up to what the scale says is max payload the bar turns red and doesn’t give any info. It...
These BFGs appear to be a direct compeitor to the Perelli ATRs that come stock on our trucks. I'm not sure what the advantage of the Trail Terrain would be over the stock tire.
Personally, I was happy to get a black sidewall on my 2022. I never liked the Perelli white lettering.
As I've mentioned in the other thread, I would recommend that you look up your lemon law process in your state. In mine, you send a letter informing Ford that they have a pre-determined amount of time to solve the issue. They have acknowledged that the vehicle has a known issue with a feature...
Sounds like a nightmare for a service department. No idea which parts will be needed to implement a fix. Even worse for aftermarket companies as there may be multiple versions of a car per year.
I had a 1993 Ford Probe GT as my first car in high school. It was a great car but the problem was...
I was personally underwhelmed by the 2kw generator. The noise people complained about is the fan noise for the inverter which is under the back seat. That never really bothered me but you can hear it.
The 2kw system did seem to be sensitive to spikes, I would consider it to be a 1.3-1.5 kw...
I tilt more toward a stronger statement of just plain NO. With the in dash apple maps experience and some recent bugs with Waze and carplay, I switch to almost excusively using apple maps. Damned if it wasn't two days later that I got a camera speed trap ticket. I've now switched back to...
While this all sounds awesome, there is still a piece that is missing and that is the valuation of a trade. Provided you are trading in a vehicle, the dealership could still try to screw you by offering a very low trade value. That comes as a double hit if they offer you a terrible trade in...
