Jack,
My understanding is that the trucks are being shipped with a sensor and cable to use now. With the Sync4 System being new, and the F150 getting the ProTrailer Back Up which has been on the super duty models, they are going to be providing a software update in the near future (hopefully...
Quick supplement to my post about towing over the weekend:
I had set up the trailer option with the length of our AirStream as 24'. We have a factory back up camera and display which mounts in the front. NOTE: With the only cigarette socket being in the rear seat, to attach your display you...
I'm near the end of the tank with about 87 miles remaining since the trip this weekend. There's no issue with mixing, but I'll probably wait until I'm under 50 and then fill up.
Jack - We are going to head out again in a few weeks, and this time I'm going to fill up with Premium and see how the mileage goes. I'll get back here and will let the group know.
Range is a big issue for all of us. I too was hoping for a bit more with the hybrid engine, but 300 will get me...
I like your thinking. I need to become more proficient with backing into tight spaces.
Our "kiddos" are two german shorthaired pointers, so I have to keep me and the wife on the "sparingly" profile :cool:
Tow/Haul mode kept me pretty much in 9th gear on the interstate, with 10th on a rare occasion.
Also, and I haven't gone back to double check on this: I think I have to be in tow/haul for the parking brake to engage when using the backup camera and hitch assist. (without the parking brake, we...
Just wondering what you meant by "however I do lock out 9 and 10"?
It was hot and dry and full of pollen this weekend. Most of the snow birds will be gone by end of March, which will open up some vacancies to the better camp sites.
Following up on my own post.
Didn't have a chance to test the ProPower and initial draw when the AC turns on.
However, I can report some driving characteristics:
Our Airstream is a 23' FB Flying Cloud. Dry weight is about 4500 (if I recall correctly). I have not taken the time to attach the...
Mine is a Dometic AC unit.
We're heading out this weekend, so I'll play around with the unit and FordPass and see what the initial surge at power on clocks in at, and will report back.
I'm just thrilled that it works (and so is my wife!)
I received my stubby Camco adapter from Amazon yesterday. Plugged it in to the truck and out 23’ Airstream, turned on the truck and generator, switched the AS from “store” to “use” set the air as cold as I could. Here are the pictures with the air running.
Not sure why it’s only B powering, but...
I spoke to a tint guy last week and he said don't tint the sunroof as once done, it's prone to cracking.
I think I've seen some posts here that you can use a ceramic tint which won't cause the roof to crack (vs the film).
I'm sure that others on here no more of this than me.
I tried A through D, and Ford Parts said that none fit.
Wondering if anyone has ordered and if they've fit? Could be slight differences in the body curves, lips, etc?
Does anyone know the actual part number for the 2021 wheel well liners?
I tried ordering on Ford Parts, and nothing was coming up which was compatible with the 2021 Platinum FX4.
This ???
Great advice. I just created an account and ordered the mud flaps for front and rear. Ordered the wheel well liners too, but from Amazon.
The next thing I'm waiting on is the DIO for the Trailer TPMS and Rear Camera. This would remove 2 items from windshield mount (I specifically...
I contacted Ford Support through a chat online yesterday and opened a ticket regarding the need to push the software update to Gen14 trucks with Pro Trailer Back Up, so that we can take advantage of the stickers when calibrating.
Anyone else who has a couple of minutes to do this, I think it...
My only hesitancy with Google is their privacy policy. The truck is already sharing a ton of data with Ford. Google makes money from selling your data to third parties. Hopefully this won't be an issue with the new system and consumers will be able to set and control privacy policies.
