  1. Amsoil Synthetic

    Interesting comment on Amsoil and 5,000 miles changes. I have a couple of million miles, probably more, accumulated running the top grade Amsoil, which is Signature at the moment. I change oil at 10,000 mile intervals and Amsoil filters at 5,000 mile intervals. Most of my applications went...
  2. Remote Oil System with Bypass Filter (Amsoil)

    I don't know how turbos are lubed, but if they use engine oil then the set up might make sense. I was going to install one on one of my early Suburbans but never got around to it. It went 320,000 carbureted miles anyway, using no oil between 10,000 mile oil changes and 5,000 mile Amsoil filter...
  3. Amsoil Synthetic

    Interesting comment on Amsoil and 5,000 miles changes. I have a couple of million miles, probably more, accumulated running the top grade Amsoil, which is Signature at the moment. I change oil at 10,000 mile intervals and Amsoil filters at 5,000 mile intervals. I even bought the 5/30 in 30...
  4. 2021 Owners - What is your OTA Version?

    I suspect I will need to spend a substantial amount of time trying to figure out how to use it. Do you have a favorite? What does PTS and FDRS stand for? I assume both are independent from the Ford website?
  5. Will the hybrid battery catch fire in the Powerboosts hybrid f150, if it gets wet?

    You know, I like the hybrid concept. I hate the full electric. I would park neither in my garage given the lithium-ion problem. Too many battery cells means too many opportunities to short and burn. A viable electric battery would use something besides lithium-ion. Something safer. There...
  6. 2021 Owners - What is your OTA Version?

    Thank you for the explanation. That was very helpful. I was thinking we were still in the 20's for number of computers. For some reason I was thinking Ford was programming all their software to work together. Kind of like Windows. I expected a natural flow. All warm and fuzzy and happy...
  7. 2021 Owners - What is your OTA Version?

    I hate to be stupid here, but I've been that way my entire life. I bought an owners manual and have been poking around trying to find update information. I did push a screen button to check for updates. It came back to me that I am updated. How do I know I am updated and what updates I have...
  8. The Car Care Nut (Auto Mechanic) Reviews the F-150

    He did his review in such a way that it made me think about the high end trucks in a much different manner. What I 'heard' is that a high end truck has a single life as a luxury vehicle, then becomes a work truck. A low end truck has a single, but much longer life as a truck. Well that makes...
  9. OTA updates not happening?

    I checked my updates a week ago and none were pending.
  10. My only locking lug nuts story

    So how easy is it to steal a 21 F150
  11. GM Features You Wish Ford Had

    Yours truly here has driven a 6.2 2011 Yukon Denali from new (2011) to Sept 2024. 203,000 miles. Recommended premium. 405 hp. Seldom ran premium, but when I did it really woke up. Used no oil. V4/V8 worked great despite it being a stupid idea. Replaced it with 2023 Yukon Denali. 420 hp...
  12. My only locking lug nuts story

    My truck has 24 locking lugs. You are 100% correct in your assessment. No question they will eventually come off, key or no key. But at least they will have earned it.
  13. upgrading to Push-To-Start on single cab XLT

    My victories occur when I push the send button.
  14. Spark plug change made easy

    This thread tires me out.
  15. Anybody know why this is happening!

    Were there any install problems on the H8 versus the H6?
  16. Anybody know why this is happening!

    Battery Tender. Schumacher or Daltran Battery Tender Plus. 1.25 to 2 amps should suffice. I have problems on all my cars (5) if I am not regularly driving them. Everything I read about Ford battery problems is likely the result of undercharging. I charge every two to three weeks or so if I...
  17. upgrading to Push-To-Start on single cab XLT

    Hopefully your luck is better than mine on factory upgrades. Everytime I attempt one I get in the middle of it and the instructions turn to Swahili, and I am stuck. I can get on YouTube and find them in Navajo, but I am no better than the Germans were in figuring that out. So now I am down...
  18. GM Features You Wish Ford Had

    MXWORK said something about an easy bake oven. Great addition to a console that no competitors will have.
  19. Catch-can. Well that wasn't difficult

    Thank you very much for your education. That makes total sense. In my case, catch cans probably don't money out because of low annual miles and the fact that I need to check it at every service. I will most likely die before my truck does. On the lighter side, how many walnuts do I need to...
  20. My only locking lug nuts story

    Do you have an ex girlfriend that might be removing lug nuts??????????
