This website sells a conversion harness: https://www.boostedgreygoosedesigns.net/2021-ford-f150-oem-upgrade-wiring-harnesses/2021-f150-base-halogen-and-base-halogen-w-blis-to-full-led-blis-conversion-adapter-sets I believe he is also a forum member. I am not as worried about the taillights as...

Sure enough, it’s there in addition to warnings against modified steering wheels, which may or may not be a response to the folks with Teslas jamming water bottles into and attaching weights to the steering wheel. It would be nice if Ford mentioned it in the configurator, since I was looking...

I have the HDPP on my reg cab long bed and the ride is stiff, when empty with the higher spring rate leaf pack and heavy duty sway bars; the truck drives like an old solid axle sports car. On perfectly smooth roads, it rides great but if there are even the slightest imperfections, you feel...

Definitely an oversight if there’s no easy way to add a third brake light to a cap/camper shell.

Sometimes the impedance of a working bulb will be off enough to trip a code. Try swapping bulbs and if that doesn’t work, it could be a wiring issue.

Whenever I drive a new vehicle, I try some threshold braking exercises from various speeds on an empty road with markings or at least some frame of reference. I did notice that there’s little feedback and that at least on dry pavement, the ABS feels like it intervenes too soon. As far as...

There’s arguments for both sides and it all comes down to the specifications of the wheels and tires. If you stick with the OEM wheels and correctly rated name brand tires at the recommended inflation pressures, it’s all good. As stated above, the difference between the stock 18” and 20” is...

I didn’t even know about WD hitches until very recently and I have probably driven well over 10,000 highway miles towing some kind of trailer since I first got my driver’s license. The sad thing is that there is really very little information for new drivers concerning towing and there’s really...

I’m currently looking into getting a double axle trailer for my truck. Reading the manual, I can’t find anything mentioning a weight distributing hitch being required, or even anything with a tongue weight limit other than on this page. With a class 4 hitch, some manufacturers allow up to...

Lane centering can only be activated when adaptive cruise control is on. As for the OP’s question, if I had to guess, I would say that I suspect the lane centering algorithm’s frequency and the natural frequency of your travel trailer setup is the same, resulting in the driver induced...

You might be able to carefully take yours off and reapply them. I took my 4X4 decals off and stretched the first one by being impatient. However, the second one that I removed was in good enough condition to be reused. I didn’t use anything for removal other than a warm day and my fingernail.

That’s what the heavier GCVWR and GVWR packages are for. Even swapping out all the parts and the frame won’t change the sticker. If you get in a serious accident, or get incredibly unlucky and get stopped by a commercial vehicle highway patrol truck that carries scales, they’re not going to...

Can’t go wrong with Michelin, they invented the radial tire. I will generally go with Michelin, Continental, Yokohama and Goodyear for my cars/trucks in that order. I don’t put many miles a year on my vehicles, so it is important that I get a good shelf life on my tires and I have seen...

On another forum, a member called boostedgreygoose is working on a full LED swap and he’s got harnesses for the previous gen. so I expect he’s serious about it.

They don’t stick out as much as they seem, I don’t see them causing any problems parking in garages, since they don’t stick out anymore than you need to open the door to exit the truck. They have to effect MPG, it would be interesting to compare nearly identical builds that only differ in...

There are some aftermarket 360° cameras, the actual hardware is pretty inexpensive. Unfortunately, I believe that they’re mostly cheap knock-offs judging from their reviews and reliability is suspect.

Which engine does your truck have? There’s a good spot for one of these where the intercooler lives on the turbo engines, so if you have a V8, or the 3.3 V6, I imagine that it won’t be long before the aftermarket figures something out.

EPA rules have resulted in less durable chrome and ultimately this PVD stuff. Be careful out there, your new truck isn’t going to be as durable as your old ones :/

My XLT has a locking tailgate and I imagine that most do nowadays. However, the latch is completely exposed from inside the bed and it is only a matter of time before someone figures out how to jimmy it open and posts it on YouTube. I looked into getting another tailgate to debadge and fill...

Yes, I am only referring to the actual coating. Everything else being equal, polishing and buffing the paint; it will be no different preparing for a Carnauba wax coating. If anything, it should be cheaper to apply the SiO2 coating because it goes on as a clear liquid and you‘re not stuck...
