  1. 2023 F150 dash cut off, then the head unit screen when blank! (quick 6 month review)

    I'm pretty sure I have data sharing off. I know I looked to turn it off after I bought it and found out dealers where selling our diving data to insurance companies. AND that's why I was at odds with the "probably updated while driving" suggestion. I'm detailing the inside today to clean up from...

    Freak out is an understatement lol. I was 6 hrs from home thinking it'll be a LONG walk back.
  3. 2023 F150 dash cut off, then the head unit screen when blank! (quick 6 month review)

    I give everyone respect and a chance. They didn't have to ask so that's something. Whether or not this individual can do anything is a different story. I'd say it'll be hard to help just by replying online, but maybe they can see if there was an update pushed. Either way, got to give them a...

    Okay, color me impressed. I did not expect a Ford rep to be on here let alone ask. VERY NICE! 1FTMF1C54PKF52645 Thanks for any assistance. Bryan

    That's the first thing I thought and asked if they thought it could have been but was told they've never seen an update while driving. But there's always a first time.
  6. 2023 F150 dash cut off, then the head unit screen when blank! (quick 6 month review)

    So after my first 6 months of ownership, the truck has been 95% hassle and worry free. I've just realized that in 6 months I'm put 17000 miles on her lol. That's funny because my insurance company asked how many miles I thought I'd put on it. Seeing I have 2 trucks, one 4x4 one 2 wd, I stated...
  7. My Latest Toy... RCSB 5.0 XLT Build

    You are a man after my own heart. Let me know when its for sale. I think as I get older I'm not to excited to tear down and rebuild again lol. I just retired, so we'll see how mine goes! By they way, where did you get the lift? I see the creeper is a chair type. Is that because the lift is...
  8. Check out this Ford F150 on 22x10 BRINK B207 Wheels Lowered 3"/5"

    What about a OEM 17in wheel for those that don't want to deal with either gear changes or rubber band size tires? I'm looking for a lighter wheel in either 17x10 or 17x9, but like what you posted don't stick out.
  9. 2023 scsb 5.0 slow speeds deceleration vibration (pinion angle or trans)?

    Well, you'll probably still feel the shacks. I installed the 2in drop shackles from FP along with the shims and it still vibrates. On top of that, it's not even a 2 in drop. Maybe 1.5. Personally, I wouldn't suggest buying them to anyone. I'm going to replace them with the OEM and then do a flip.
  10. F-150---- V8 Gas Mileage? What MPG Do You Get??

    So last month I drove from S. Texas to Las Vegas and back to help my son move back to Austin. On the way to Vegas, I set the trip and zeroed out. Driving 5mph over the posted speed and using the eco mode once on the highway and sport in town, my average mpg once at his apt was 24.4 mpg. On the...
  11. Thoughts on cat backs. Sound over function? Any before and after dynos?

    Oh I love me some test results! So lets take a look at their numbers. First thing you have to remember when dealing with tests like these is this is not and can not be compared to "real world" use results. As the tester stated " Temperature & humidity of the test dust and air used in the test...
  12. Thoughts on cat backs. Sound over function? Any before and after dynos?

    Funny how you didn't post the link where you got that "test" info. That's okay though, neither did the user Crashmaster when he posted it to Acurazine. LMAO. Don't try posting other peoples "COMMENTS" off as test results. Post the link to the site where a 3rd party tested the products. Do not...
  13. Can't get a clear reading on oil dipstick

    It's burning it. I park in the same spot in the garage and at work, I'd see oil drip. Plus you can see the spackle on the rear of the truck. It's burning or blowing oil out the back. But I'm dropping it off Friday.
  14. Can't get a clear reading on oil dipstick

    So I think I know what the issue was. It was SUPER LOW!!!! Guess I'll be sending it in for the oil consumption issue. I have just over 5000 miles. At a little over 3000 I added a quart of oil. It was so low that the oil line was at the very bottom of the stick. I just changed the oil and filter...
  15. Thoughts on cat backs. Sound over function? Any before and after dynos?

    That's got to be load in the cab. Which is fine when you step on it. But at regular speeds like around town and hwy, how does it affect the in cab music/talk volume? I like my flowmaster dual rears, but the bends are crap and it's just not the sound I want. So I'm thinking of going to a side exit.
