  1. 2021+ F150 Power-Up and Priority OTA History Thread

    Received this Saturday am. Didn't get a "how'd you like it" email from Ford, son I'm not sure if it's an early release or not. Searched and didn't find it before (I'm old, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it) EDIT - False alarm. I searched "TCCM" and not "transfer case". We now return you...
  2. Is Ford Bringing Back The Ranchero?

    Is it a "Model T Moment" making an EV Ranchero? https://www.autoevolution.com/news/cheap-as-chips-ford-ranchero-compact-ev-truck-projected-to-sell-190000-units-per-year-255581.html
  3. Can't Activate Software Update

    Apologies... My search failed (and I'm an old fart). Sync version 24227, '24 Lariat. I noticed on FordPass my last update was Sept '24. That was about the time I had it serviced and the dealer did some updates. I checked and cannot activate Automatic Updates. Either with Sync or FordPass the...
  4. Did Ford send software update to improve audio system?

    Not mentioned, but are you using Android Auto or Carplay? I know Android just did an update and, while not mentioned in the notes, I hear a slightly improvement playback with Amazon Music.
  5. Loss of acceleration. Mine is a2021 poweboost and it happens mostly in turns

    Zero issues with my '24 Lariat PB with abt 5K miles.
  6. Powerboost ProPower, good boy. Powered house after wind storm

    @hamelnator This thread (and a few others) gives you and your electrician info on transfer switches, etc. https://www.f150gen14.com/forum/threads/installed-transfer-switch-in-house.1267/
  7. Aluminum & Steel Pices Impact On Used Vehicles.

    Yep, and some will say "we're not marking down our inventory from MSRP... you're getting a $12k discount from the upcoming tariff price. Sign here."
  8. What did you do TO your F-150 today? 🙋🏻‍♂️

    Lol...sorry to make you relive the GSM saga. Thanks for the response. Mine is an annoying clicking with the actual shifter vibrating a bit. I can push it a bit while I'm a gear and it usually stops. The '21 TSB (mine is a '24) called for (1) update the software or (2) replace the GSM. We'll see...
  9. What did you do TO your F-150 today? 🙋🏻‍♂️

    Was the GSM clicking? Or was it other issues? Mine has the annoying clicking a described in a TSM for the '21s. I'm headed to service this week to get it resolved.
  10. Android Auto Issues? It's the app

    Users are having issues with wireless connectivity after recent Android Auto update. Google is aware and "investigating a fix." https://www.theverge.com/news/617207/android-auto-bug-wireless-phone-connectivity-reboot
  11. 2021+ F150 Power-Up and Priority OTA History Thread

    I received an email (from the Early Access folks) asking my opinion on "Retail Collision Assist" this am. However I've no idea what it is as there is nothing showing what the update consists of in either FordPass or software updates in Sync. My last was the TCU update recently. It might not be...
  12. Ford Security Package for 2024+

    I received this email from Ford regarding an updated "Security Package" availability. From a dealer website (slightly outdated as '25 features available now) it's for '24-'25 F-150s and '25 Super Duty. It requires the FordPass app. The first year is free and subsequent years are $79.95 a year...
  13. Fixed - Battery upgrade to H8 - now brake light stays on, can't reset BMS

    It's been my experience (and others that have posted on various threads) to follow the "leave the truck alone overnight" philosophy. "Let the truck sit for around 8 hours with the key off and doors closed to allow the Battery Management System (BMS) to relearn the new battery's state of charge...
