Thanks Ford for the shortest new battery life span ever. Purchased new August 2023 F-150 STX, Screw , 5.0L Battery Dead 27 months later I now have 40k miles and even though I had reported battery draining etc to my dealer months ago “ they found nothing “ This is BS Ford

Dakar09 Wow ! Exceptional 500 ! Thanks

Perfect description. btw- looking at your toys ;) I had a 61 Ford Step Side I brought back from Texas in the early 80's. I would like to see a pic of your 500

You can not hear it at all cruising 55,70,75 mph. Its just like factory in the cab then. You hear it just as a nice, yet very noticeable, compared to stock , deeper Better, Improved, tone at start up along with accelerating at 1K-2K rpm's around town which is puuuuuurrrrrrrfect :) low deep V8...

Here is another sound video same muffler & 5.0L. Confirmed sounds like this +1 in person And these are videos I used before purchase

Hey Graygoose, yes I remember when you put that nice touring cat back on after you tried another prior. No there is zero issue with CD annoyance ( Thank God lol ). I spent a long time reviewing, listening, talking to Borla before I went with this because of CD, Drone etc. It’s a deeper...

Sounds like this fwiw............. I will do a clip some time in the future but, it basically sounds the same as this. And in person as with all these exhaust videos it is one or two levels louder and deeper

Made in USA. Should be good in snow. Quiet. I am happy with them! Have owned Coop's in the past. Always high quality.

Update- mine did not throw a code (motor entire removal not just the blade) on my STX (XL) Next I am removing the rear tire dams. Why? Check out how thin of a gauge the aluminum is they are attached to. If you just tap something with that silly hung down air dam it will bend up the body part...

No one’s asking you to chant anything

The 5.0L engine was the primary reason (reliability,performance,dependability,fun) I purchased a brand new 2023. Don't overthink it - enjoy it. I am a small block guy but, if I did buy a 1/2 truck turbo it would likely be a Ford (most experience with) followed by the newer GM 2.7 (i4). Be...

Thanks for all the help~replies. Appreciate it. I am going to try the newer Cooper Discovery Road+Trail a try when I swap out in 2025
