So, what do those folks do, spend all their time monitoring a wall of cams like the security guards at some buildings? Seems that a motion-detecting alarm with smartphone alert would be just as effective and likely much less $. Oh well, whatever, carry on.

Note this cam mounts inside the rear window, not outside the cab like the OE bed cam. Ford Truck Bed Camera | Accessories | Ford.com FORD TRUCK BED CAMERA| Part Details for M-1650-SC | Ford Performance Parts Link to pdf installation instructions I can't imagine leaving stuff in the bed or...

Good luck with that given you've already accepted the truck without the tailgate spray at whatever agreed price. IMO the Ford dealer owes you nothing.

If you mean the Ford dealer who subcontracted the Line-X install for you, I'd urge you to cut-out the middle-man and just go directly to the nearest Line-X installer. Sounds like your truck deal with the Ford dealer is done and accepted so there's no reason to mess with them any further, any...

Methinks you're just the victim of poor communications / coordination about what you wanted / expected. Others have had Line-X installed on Pro-Access tailgates, here's one example. It may well be, and IMO understandable, that Line-X installers charge more than for a 'plain' tailgate to do a...

Didn't you discuss this with the installer before they did the work and ask them the reason?

If ^that^ means you can't legally drive it in CA, then I'd try escalating the VOR status decision within the dealership. Yeah, a PITA that you have to do that. :mad: Worst case, and I'm sure an inconvenience for you, but perhaps see if another dealer is more cooperative and willing / able to...

See the Dealer Notice attached at this post, especially pdf page 6/17. You might get the repair quicker if you let your dealer hold the vehicle and they properly follow the instructions on that page quoted below (note - "VOR" means "Vehicle Off Road", in other words not able to be driven). If...

Simplicity is always in the eye of the beholder, experience, etc. Attached FYI to aid in your determination / swap if you decide to go with it. Have Fun!

FWIW google search Walmart everstart battery recall yields no relevant hits.

And yes, I have some empathy (certainly no job-envy) for the folks at Ford Corporate tasked with managing the logistics of this problem. Just gotta trust they're doing the best they can in a difficult and stressful situation. I can't envision any incentive for them to protract clearing the...

Could be wrong (yet again) but I suspect the requisite parts are pipelined from manufacture to installation PDQ with little time lingering in warehouses. Of course, one branch of that pipeline, distinct from recall repairs, is new vehicle assembly. Could / will the parts manufacturing rate be...

Attached FYI of others, dated 10/31/2025. Perhaps of particular interest are the new procedures for "if the customer elects to take delivery of their vehicle while waiting for parts..." vs "If the vehicle remains at the dealership while awaiting parts to arrive ...." (see pdf page 6/17). If in...

Nope, an honest question / comment. That is exactly my point. We both understand that with 91 the ECM will effectively limit power output by limiting effective ignition advance to that which the 91 will safely support without pre-detonation. My thought was / is that when running in high load...
