I bought a bunch of strong magnets too. The science geek inside me reminds me that a piece of metal works too.

I ordered a bunch of magnets, but keep in mind the cover is already magnetic, so you could also just attach a piece of metal with double sided tape.

Thanks for posting this. You rarely see good photos of the XLT interior and I forgot to take photos of it when I was at the factory event in April. I may be in the minority, but one of the reasons I chose to go with an XLT is because I love the feel of cloth seats. The door interiors are...

Just watched this on YouTube and posted this comment there. You left out THREE of my favorite F-150 cargo spaces. 1. The space under the F-150 back seat is pretty big, not to mention the space when the back seat is folded up. 2. The space in the F-150 center console is HUGE... it's as big...

Ford just sent me an email of my XLT at the factory. As many of you know I was invited to the factory for the launch event in April, so I've stood exactly where this photo was taken. PS... According to the email, it was just leaving the factory, but I can see the photo was taken on 8/20.

The same thing happened to my Mach-E. The only thing that worked on the screen was the backup camera, which I assume bypasses the regular computer for safety reasons. It was a hot day and I couldn’t even turn on the A/C. It came back to life after a reset and hasn’t happened since.

That’s what I ordered XLT 312A… to me the top of the line XLT has always been the Goldilocks of the F-150 line. Most of the ICE F-150s I see on the road are XLTs, and that’s the line I identify with most. I like cloth seats, and I also love the physical buttons. Although I’d love to have the...

The funny thing is tonneau companies have said for years that covers IMPROVE gas efficiency, and I do remember seeing the Mythbusters episode that basically said variations of "sort of" and "sometimes", and in all cases, whatever change was tiny. From what I remember, the best case was open...

It's interesting that they only mention soft covers... I wonder if a hard cover improves the efficiency.

That's such a shame. Basically the new choices are: Grey Dark grey Light grey White "Off white" Black "Black with a hint of blue if you look at it at a certain angle in bright sunlight, but don't turn your head or it's still black" The only non-white / grey "colors" Red and "some new blue...

The estimated delivery date moved a week later, then it looks like it moved back again. Super excited!

The crazy thing for me is that I tend to want to make adjustments at the exact time I'm backing out of my driveway... and that's when most of the screen is covered by the backup camera. Having knobs gives me the ability to tinker with the seat heat, HVAC, or simply interact with the radio while...

My current ride is a Mach-E, and although the 15” screen looks super high-tech, I decided to get an XLT so I can have physical buttons and cloth seats. I’m a software developer, so I completely agree that a lot of the problems can eventually be worked out by re-arranging the software, but I’m...

Awesome idea and I just placed an order for the cover and the magnets. I'm sticking with the idea of the rare earth magnets because it would be stronger but you can potentially also just use an adhesive square metal plate designed to hold a cell phone in a magnetic holder because the cover...

I'm glad to hear there was at least some sort of sensor tripped, but I firmly believe there is still no reason for an electronically triggered frunk to be allowed to be fully opened while in motion. Even if one intention for the button is for the unlikely event that a person is forced into the...

Even if that were true, there’s still no reason it should open when driving. This is a state of the art vehicle with sensors and computer monitoring everywhere. If a door is slightly ajar, we get warnings. If a somebody unlatches their seatbelts, we get warnings. So if the frunk is not...

I can understand the need to throw the first stage and allow for ventilation in case somebody is stuck in there by mistake, but completely opening while driving Is just plain bad under all circumstances.

That‘s what I was thinking… Even if they add a cover, there’s no reason for that button to be enabled while the truck is in motion. There are already a bunch of options that turn off when the truck is moving, so disabling that button should be super easy to do (unless the button is hard wired...

This picture says 1000 words and I'm assuming there will be some sort of recall to put a cover there... just like the power jacks. Other than that it would need to be something twisted or pulled, not pushed.

The funny thing is they literally tried to reinvent something that has been around for REAR trunks for decades. The solution there was something that can be PULLED, not pushed. There are a ton on things that can accidentally PUSH that button like luggage and the standard test for trunk size...
