The mandates made on the Auto industry is based off of Government exposure 100%. EPA would be one for example. For another example, ABS or backup cameras, airbags, it was a option in the past now it is required for passenger vehicles as a standard option. It is safer to have these options 100%...

Unless you worked for the government, ANSI, ASME, ASTM, AWS, ISO, SAE, OSHA, IEC, CFR, CE, DOT, OVSC and I can go on and on. Most manufacturers only follow the interpretations of these standards and meet the baseline of each standard that is applicable to the product being tested/produced...

Gotcha, thanks it has been a few years since I used forscan. I still have my obd2 to usb connector. I have heard some guys say the reflective led headlights turn signal uses a standard bulb not sure either.

Any hyperflashing? They put everything else on LED but the rear brake lights and rear turn? I know the reverse light is led. I am curious on converting as well. What about the 3rd brake light I know the clear lights are LED but is the red portion? I have not had time to check it myself. Thanks

I feel like the towing capacity can be a gimmick but for a manufacture point of few it is hard to assume how each application is going to configured. The thousands of different trailer types, axle types, trailer design, materials the trailers are made with, and configuration of load, braking...

Most try to be engineers, oh boy is that a challenge. I am lucky if a can get a NPL scope done correctly from them. I looked at some literature that marketing published and I had to go back and have them change that information because of assumptions not fact, which caused customers to become...

I agree with the testing to real life difference in product useage. Even in ANSI, SAE, ASTM,.... testing and requirements can equal different results from engineering to the consumer. Best practice is to get a accurate baseline and test using the exact same conditions. Which I am not going to...

I am a mechanical engineer and I can tell you from experience, that the engineering team can meet a spec at certain conditions, and marketing can go way out of bounds with that information and almost make false advertising very quickly. Almost like a parent talking to a child and the child's...

the stock tire diameter is 33-34 inches; right? 275/60/20 not much a difference in tire height

I have a quick question in the IPC section the police package information is that based off of the cluster installed or this a way to raise the speed limiter bascially like when we run tunes and disable it with a tune? I am just curious if selecting one of these would change the speed limiter...

XLT 302A 3.5 eco with 3.55 Have not used the Trailer backup assist, the backup assist stuff is still in the bag unopened.

Thanks Tokyo Joe, I appericate all the effort put into that, I will post that load sticker here soon I need to take a pic. I agree Ford needs to post this information so people do not damage their trucks or make unsafe choices by not having the correct information properly given to them without...

I am sure this has been asked alot for the 21's but I have checked the User Manual and all online references and from what I can tell that the 3.5 Eco with the Max tow 53C and 3.55 gears is good for 13,900 Lbs.? But my hitch states 14,000 Lbs. This is my forth Aluminum body and they just keep...
