Did you do the shock install yourself or at a shop? If a shop, how much $$ (if you don't mind). Thinking I will make this change on my '25 Lariat too.

Get the extended warranty - I had a '21PB - I did like the truck, but it was peppered with recalls for all kinds of stuff and eventually a new transmission at 83K miles (and after 3 repair attempts). Ford dealer gave me a $10K credit on a trade for non EB model.

My work colleague (in another city) had very similar problems with his 2022 Lariat PB - Ford could not fix it - would light up like a Christmas tree. Ford bought it back plus extra $$ ... he told me when he returned it to the dealer for buy back check they service manager said it was going to...

I forgot about this one ... my '23 had a bad vibration over 70 under hard acceleration. Turned out it was a combination of out of balance drive shaft and U-joints. Replaced under extended warranty.

Just a quick reply - I had a '21 PB Lariat got to 85K miles and had transmission issues that could not be repaired (after 3 times the transmission was replaced with a new one), dealer worked with me on a credit toward a '23 EB (non PB) Lariat - better truck but not perfect (plus I got a really...

I am doing that tomorrow during oil change. That and the second air dam failure in 2 months. I made them replace FIVE of them on my '23 ... I am going to let this one go and just remove the thing, it takes five hours to replace and I have better things to do with my time. Dealer admits that...

If it's any consolation ... I am missing three of them and one of the end caps wants to exit the scene so I have some duct tape holding it on ... my biggest issue with Ford, the basics are solid but the extras (or even add on's) seem to be done quick and cheap.

Toyo's all the way ... I regularly get 65K miles before I even need to think about new ones. I do not have the e-rated and they have enough capacity for towing, etc. Good wear (rotate every oil change), not noisy and they are NOT heavy tires! Great (and I mean really good) in the snow and...

I made it to 83K miles before the transmission went on the fritz - some sort of sensor that interfaced with the generator. After 3 repair attempts they settled on a whole new transmission. About 30 days in a loaner, not fun (although covered under warranty). I traded the PB for a non-PB and...

I kept the FX4 on the bedsides (this time) ... but I have always taken everything off to make it cleaner. I am older now and really don't need to impress anyone with the mods I did (or did not do) to my truck. Just my opinion. Your truck (in the picture) looks really nice as it is ... no need...

That does seem high to me - I have a "full service" every 5K miles at my dealer (because I don't have the tools, cannot easily recycle the oil and honestly they can do it in 45 minutes - it would take me 3 hours). With full synthetic oil, motorcraft filter and tire rotation - plus inspections -...

I did have the drive shaft replaced on my '23 Lariat ... seemed to fix the issue. It was noticeable at highway speeds under hard acceleration. My '25 does not have any vibration issues.

Not sure of all your details - but agree with your assessment, let it all warm up before putting any load on the engine/transmission - as a former BMW owner, the mechanic who did the engine "tour" at delivery basically stated. You have several individual elements, some of different types...

I remember the late 70s Ford cars were absolute junk, the early 80s F series were good, but had a lot of new plastics being used - literally everywhere. I have a '25 Lariat now - it is night and day better than my previous '21 and '23 were. Paint is great (pearl white is the name I think) and...

The suspensions are pretty solid on the newer F150s - I had the first alignment on my last truck at 75K miles when I added new tires. They service guy said they didn't have to adjust anything, it was all in spec. I hit freeway potholes at speed (I do try to avoid them) and have off roaded at...

Is anyone paying the $49/month for BC? My subscription runs out in a few days - I am not renewing. The lane correction with cruise control is nearly 90% of BC anyway in my view.

I like Blue Cruise most of the time, except during lane changes. I always to my normal look for clearance, etc. BUT the BC seems to abruptly move into the next lane - it is like watching a new driver over steer then over correct into the lane. The guy behind me is probably thinking - how much...

My thoughts exactly. Good/Superior quality tires, shocks, etc. NO lift kits or other modifications (except maybe high quality airbags). Plus - really make sure you have your trailer brakes dialed in. Make a full weight test trip, maybe without the precious cargo and test out stopping (hard...

I don't think the dealer cares if it's 5K or 10K ... they will do three changes per the plan. I was given a 10 pack of free oil changes when I bought my last truck ... they didn't care what the mileage was (even though the plan was for 100K). I did each change at 5K and the plan was over at 50K.

Tony, you stated it better than my message - moving only one tip is not possible I think ...
