I replaced Hankooks with Conti HTs. in 70,000 miles the tires were never in balance, and that after one was replaced as defective. However, the Contis looked good, rode well and were quiet. Dry traction was excellent, and wet traction was exceptional. Did unexpectedly well in snow, too in light...
Do yourself a favor and get an X2 battery, size H7 and most of these problems will go away. Battery is a hybrid start/deep cycle, weighs about 5# more than a typical H7, and can exhibit a higher static voltage. Don't forget the mini battery under rear seat, probably best to pay $75 for the Ford...
Buy an X2 brand H7 at Batteries & Bulbs, look for discount coupons up to 30%. Higher cranking amps, hybrid design with deep cycle resistance, AGM, and higher voltage than regular batteries.
Well lo and behold, Ford just replied to someone and asked for a reply on the Private Channel. Problem is, it doesn't exist as best I can tell.
So Ford, I'm looking to hear from you. I'm angry with your lack of response, broken promises and an otherwise nice truck spoiled by a defective...

2021 Build one Platinum PB, bought in Dec 2021 with 14,500 miles. Sales mgr had supposedly driven it months, no issues stated, alledgedly not a buy-back truck.

Buy a H7 "X2" brand hybrid battery, available at Batteries & Bulbs. Check for discount coupons, I got 15% but 20% are sometimes run. Paid about $300, but X2's have higher static voltage and a huge starting capacity. They are AGM, and have good deep cycle characteristics. Will cure almost any PB...
When I bought my 2021 Platinum PB, my accountant told me that with a 5.5' bed I could take the 179 accelerated depreciation of $25,000 in the first year. If the bed was 6' or more (6.5') then it qualified for a 100% write-down in the first year. I bet those seeking a 6.5' bed are frequently...
I forced Discount Tire to rotate the tires on the rims until a low road force number came up. Still bounces 80-85mph, which just keeps you up with traffic on Atlanta interstates...but HeeHaww.
PS Buy a Uniden R4, 7 or 8. Your license will thank you.
