I have a 22. It came with almost every option - but not the bed utility package. In my configuration, it has bed lights. They come on when you open the tailgate but go out after a few seconds. There is no switch, only a blank cover. My question is, can the switch be added? I'm guessing so, but...

Unfortunately, I didn't buy the extended warranty. Didn't know about all the fun issues we might have waiting for us when I purchased. Haven't found a post purchase warranty company that will warranty lights. You know of one?

I have a 22 Lariat. It has all the ultra fancy headlight goodness. I keep hearing they are going to shit out someday.. So what aftermarket solution does all the same stuff, looks the closest to stock, and is as bright or brighter?

I posted everywhere I could think of and got lucky. Be ready... It's going to be pricy. People who have them, know the value. The good news is that once you have it, they are really easy to change.

Again with the negative crap. I can do that. I can take a day off work and rent a car because I work 300 miles from home and can just get a ride.. or I can ask a for people are supposed to be helpful if it's a known thing and if it's common and if it's a problem. But rather than see beyond your...

I know it's a forum and everybody is a keyboard badass, but try not to be an asshole. I have plenty of common sense as a matter of fact I'm very familiar with cars I rebuilt my first engine when I was only 15 years old. What I don't know is a lot about technology in the last 5 years. This is not...

My 2022 F150 Lariat has about 500 miles left on its initial 3/36 warranty. It's recently started missing at idle when it's first started started in the morning. Is this concerning? Most of the trucks I've owned did this after a while, but of course they were older tech and were nearing the first...

It wasn't like standard cruise. In my truck (2015 Ram 1500 Hemi) it was more like a "slow down system." It never accelerated, it never braked. It only automatically cycled through the gears to gently shift up or down as necessary. It did it properly. IMO, better than a human.

I was actually waiting for someone to tell me how to drive. I know the OP is just supposed to ignore posts like this, but... Explain to me exactly how descending an icy hill at 25 mph with no brake application is more dangerous than having to pump the brakes or manually downshifting? Did you...

Thanks for the response. I guess I figured I could do that but even then infrequent brake applications from adaptive cruise could be tough. The pass I travel sometimes isn't plowed or sanded at all. Solid compact snow and ice. Do you know if standard cruise works like I described?

Info and helpful advice appreciated... My old truck had standard cruise control. While crossing mountain passes when I decended, it would down shift to control my speed. Worked great. Mostly it was never an issue, but when the pass was a disaster, it was great to not have to apply the brakes...

Noticed this morning that I have an exhaust leak underneath my truck (see video). Is this an urgent fix? No big deal? Your thoughts appreciated.

I'm a little confused by this (pic)

My truck wants to update. Here are some screen shots is what is included... Just asking if there are any "don't do it" warnings before I let it do it.

Do you notice any rattling when you aren't towing?
