When we get hail, it is usually preceded by or accompanied by 40-50 mph and sometimes 60-70 mph winds, how does that stand up to high winds? I've seen heavy pads that strap around the car, also, that interest me.

What is your payload according to the yellow sticker on the B-Pillar post of the driver's door? Your rated hitch weight is probably going to be significantly heavier than 690 lb. when the trailer is loaded. If you assume 800 lb hitch weight, then that plus your weight and the weight of any...

Fully self driving. It doesn't beep you and warn you to keep your hands on the wheel or cancel out if you don't keep your hands on the wheel. Technically, it you are driving a BlueCruise mapped highway that intersects with another BlueCruise highway, it will take the exit for you while you sit...

Dealers can't get cars to sell from manufacturer so they either charge more for the cars that they do sell or they lay staff off. Mine chose to lay people off and sell to me at invoice because that is their policy for custom orders. Hard to complain about that but I'm sure glad I'm not working...

They were an option tha tyou could have ordered with the truck but my salesman told me to leave them off and he'd give them to me after the truck arrived for the same price. He said they would delay delivery if installed at the factory (ha ha ha I wish that was the delay I was waiting for)...

Curious if anyone has provided info regarding range under heavy load; say something like a 7000 lb boat trailer with 700 lb tongue weight and two adult passengers and a couple of kids. Would I make it to my lake home 200 miles away bringing the boat up for a long weekend of fun in the sun?

I did not use nor do I know the guidelines for X-Plan pricing but my dealer gave me the msrp price and the dealer invoice price on the day I ordered my truck and told me that the price was locked in for my order. Ford had a ~$850 price increase Jan 1 and has another $1500 increase coming up...

Having ordered that long ago and not having a VIN or scheduled build date suggests that 1) you ordered a high trim package (King Ranch, Platinum, or Limited), or 2) your dealer submitted your email address incorrectly to Ford when the order was placed or 3) don't know a 3rd reason. I would...

Currently Platinums are more like 6-9 months. Check out the most recent build week threads here. My Lariat ordered mid-November has an estimated delivery of mid-May.

No, it sometimes takes a few days to receive the email from Ford. King Ranch and Platinums seem to take much longer if yours is one of those trim levels. In my case the dealer sat on the order for 3 days before submitting it and then it took two days to get the email. Also, if the dealer...

My wife and I have he same problem with the wireless charger in her 2020 Escape. The phone has to be positioned perfectly for it to charge but invariably the phone moves and stops charging. She has pretty much given up on using it to charge her phone and she just plugs the phone in to a USB...

No, wax doesn't wash off textured plastics but if that is a painted surface it should just wipe off. I can't tell by the photo what the surface is.. They make products to remove the wax from plastics which are available at all automotive supply stores.

Definite improvement! I'm also not a fan of the brushed metal placards across the tailgate.

Those trailer sensors were electronic and therefore required chips. My guess is that Ford reallocated semiconductor wafer fab capacity to build more critical electronics for their trucks and let the minor electronics like the trailer sensors drop off the line.

Don't know what your backing experience is but I don't find the system very useful. I set up my travel trailer with the stickers to use the system but it seemed counter intuitive to me when I tried to use it. I've been backing trailers for years, though, so maybe it's just not possible to...

Just curious what the payload sticker says for your truck. That is a very heavy trailer for a half ton if you consider tongue weight being 10% of trailer weight (minimum).

The window sticker populated today in Ford's order tracker and I was happy to see that the option did get added to the original order. Whew!

I contacted my sales person today and gave him the above timeline and my concern. He pulled up the order details that they get from Ford and said that according to the file they received my order is still scheduled for next week and Copilot Active is showing as part of the build. I guess I'll...

I placed my original order on 11/18/21 I received my Vin and build week from Ford on 12/8/21 I contacted my salesman to add Copilot 360 Active 2.0 on 12/17 Today I saw a post on a Ford forum that stated “If you have a vin, you won’t be able to change your order. You would have to create a new...
