  1. Any update on a Trailer TMPS system?

    Has anyone heard anything on if or when a trailer TPMS system will be available for the ‘21 F-150?
  2. Received software OTA 7/27/21 over night and experience today

    I fear this will become what “Safari feels faster” became for Mac OS! ?
  3. New RV Trailer for EVs Extends Range & a Bonus Power Wall

    That is changing. My Lance has an whole-trailer automation system installed; Airstreams offer a similar product. Mine controls lights, stabilizers, slides, awnings, water heater, HVAC, etc. It also monitors batteries, water and waste tanks, etc. Tankless water heaters, more sophisticated heat...
  4. Powerboost Overheated while Towing

    You keep acting like only Ford documents towing capacities this way. Show us how Chevrolet, GMC & Dodge did it “right”. Put up or shut up. Bitching and moaning that Ford follows the exact industry standard as every manufacturer does is meaningless. You have become so wrapped around the axle on...
  5. Exactly what cord do I need to use the 7.2kw generator??

    That one appears to no longer be on Amazon. I grabbed a single 30TT dog bone, but then I saws this one In your post. This would be useful when boondocking with others.
  6. Powerboost Overheated while Towing

    Temperature likely will … But I am curious on where an EV with regen support ends up pulling / hauling weight.
  7. Powerboost Overheated while Towing

    I bet GM & Dodge’s posted ratings are based on the same SAE standard. It is an industry standard after all.
  8. Why no Limited trim Lightning?

    One minor correction: the Limited seats are different from the Platinum. Both in the covering and in the shape. We actually preferred the Platinum. Also, I thought there was something about the drive system - no FX4 on Limited (skid plates, drive modes, maybe hill decent, etc).
  9. Can screens be added to My View?

    Can other screens be added to the selection list of My View via FORScan? Specifically, can the Towing Status be added to be one of the screens available?
  10. Powerboost Overheated while Towing

    Ford actually responded to that effect. And, they noted that all truck tow ratings are based on an SAE specification that specifies 45MPH as a towing speed. Ford’s response was basically “you exceeded the truck’s ratings by not considering altitude, speed and temperature, but it properly went...
  11. Who actually uses a weight distributing hitch?

    To disable the sway control, go in the settings under Tow - it is a toggle there.
  12. Are clear bras worth it?

    I have the same thought. I plan on getting 20 years (got 19 years & 362k miles out of my last truck).
  13. 5,000 miles towing with 2021 F-150 Platinum PowerBoost - review

    We have been very happy! Love how the bunk area gives us a mini garage - it is just enough to stow everything we keep in the trailer. I like my trailer “fully equipped” so we can hit the road quickly since we still work. The bunks are great for grandkids. I opted for no outdoor kitchen, so...
  14. 5,000 miles towing with 2021 F-150 Platinum PowerBoost - review

    While electric only mode is disabled in Tow/Haul mode, the hybrid system is doing things. The electric motor adds torque on acceleration, and the battery is kept charged by regen braking and charge cycles. The electric motor does add ~100 lb/ft of torque when accelerating.
  15. 5,000 miles towing with 2021 F-150 Platinum PowerBoost - review

    Our trailer is a 30’ 7560# Lance 2445. We just came off a 16 day, 4300 mile trip to Yellowstone from Texas. Very pleased with how the truck performed. My mileage was lower, but I also ran 70 MPH or the speed limit, if lower. I still need to crunch the numbers and try to break out towing vs...
  16. Biggest Wheels & Tires Possible on Stock 2021 F150 (Without Level)

    Did you have the speedometer adjusted for the new tire size?
  17. Skid plates for Hybrid Powerboost 2021 f150?

    Then a parts guy should be able to get you a parts list I would think.
  18. Ford, GM Are All-In On EVs. Here’s How Their Dealers Feel About It

    I think GM’s stated intention of 100% EVs by 2035 is just hype. I think Ford’s more moderate statement of 40% “electrified” is achievable - Ford considers the Powerboost an Electrified vehicle. The also referred to the Maverick as electrified. That is a reasonable goal that acknowledges that...
  19. Skid plates for Hybrid Powerboost 2021 f150?

    Are you looking for more than comes with the FX4 package?
  20. Tow Technology Package and resale value

    If my ‘21 F150 lasts like my F250 did, I will be looking at replacing it with a ‘40 Lightning.
