  1. Winter is coming! How do you clear the snow on your vehicle??

    Obligatory Project Farm video about those dusters. He's in TX though so no snow removal tests.
  2. I have 10r80, and i rebuilt it, but won't shift at all now

    Me? I'm just thinking that the one emergency lever under the steering wheel not only mechanically disengages the parking brake, it also puts the transmission in neutral. Just wondering if the transmission is actually rebuilt perfectly, but maybe this one mechanism isn't lined up where it should...
  3. I have 10r80, and i rebuilt it, but won't shift at all now

    Dumb suggestion maybe, but did you check the emergency parking brake release system? Disengages the transmission.
  4. Center console swap done

    I'm sorry, please enlighten this naive native Texan - the truck hibernates while you switch to, what? A Subaru? Or maybe a beater that is sacrificial to the road salt? Genuinely curious, and curious how common that is. Edit: My manners! Your truck and the seat swap look awesome.
  5. Wheel Well LINERS

    I custom ordered my '21 and got the Ford-installed ones from the factory. Happy I did, but was kind of strange to have a completely bone stock, 13 total miles truck have the tires rub on the wheel liners when the steering wheel is fully cocked to the left or right. I only notice it when backing...
  6. ULV Transmission Fluid expansion - it sure does!

    Of all the things ChatGPT, Gemini and Copilot are good at, math is surprisingly not one of them (yet). I dunno if it's just an interpretation thing or what but I'd try Wolfram Alpha over any current gen AI tool for anything above third grade math. This was me asking Gemini in May 2025. It was...
  7. Little good and bad things of our F150s

    Only happens if Devo - Whip It is playing on the radio at the time.
  8. Take-off lug nuts

    Oh my... How did the gorilla feel about this?
  9. Truck powers off unexpectedly

    That fuse seating issue was a problem for at least the 2021 job 1 trucks, nearly all of my small fuses in the kick panel were just barely seated. Worth checking the fuses under the hood and in the kick panel just to make sure they're all pushed in securely. You would expect more intermittent...
  10. How to speed up Car Washing?

    Anecdotally no, I have a few chips a couple mm across on the hood where the paint is just gone. Would there be more without the coating? Unsure. Would clear bra have helped for chips there? Probably. Or that thicker, self healing vinyl stuff.
  11. 2024 F-150 Engine/Turbo Noise

    Mmmm I love the sound, I wish they were a little bit louder - but not "oh that sounded expensive" loud. Literally one of the reasons I bought this truck and not a Tundra or Tacoma (and now they have turbos too!).
  12. Take-off lug nuts

    I've always liked Discount Tire but was disappointed they're trying to upsell on lug nuts now. Just got new tires a couple weeks ago and they had display lug nuts at the counter, I declined, and then when the tech was working on the truck he also called and said I should replace my lug nuts...
  13. How to speed up Car Washing?

    Better yet, a dozen vinyl wraps - when it gets dirty, just peel off the outer layer :LOL: But seriously, it's a really big vehicle and definitely takes longer to hand wash than a sedan. Carpro Lift snow foam (diluted!) can help before a pressure washing. I did the ceramic coating when it was new...
  14. DRL Recall Issue

    Dealer markup on parts plus installation would definitely hit $4K https://www.ford.com/product/lamp-p4000011840 https://www.ford.com/product/lamp-p4000018437
