@Josh35 - There’s a bit of a trick to it, in my experience anyway. After cresting a hill and getting up to speed, I tap the brake (as long as no one is behind me) and coast for 1-2 seconds. Realizing that there is very little power required, the ICE shuts off and the truck goes full electric...

@Fquinn47 - I applied a ceramic coating (Carpro cQuartz UK 3.0) when I got my truck back at the beginning of June. Yesterday, in prep for the winter, I completed a wheels-off cleaning and applied a heat-resistant ceramic coating (Carpro DLUX) to the wheels, the calipers, and all exterior...

That mileage is pretty low. Am I correct to assume that you're pulling a trailer much of the time?

Apologies; I was only teasing. I have noticed my mileage improve since the break-in period, perhaps 0.5-1.0 mpg. You're right, that mileage generally goes down as the weather cools. 'Sorry you're not getting the mileage that you expected. I drove a couple of tankfulls without trying to...

You’re only getting 19? Is that in Gallons per Mile or Kilometers per Litre? ;-)

@Diceman - I think it’s probably the nature of this type of Forum. Pre-availability, lots os speculation and excitement. Then a shift to customers boasting about various improvements and mods. Finally, most remaining posters are motivated because they have something to gripe about. As...

First, I agree with diesel97. But what you want - especially since these trucks are so expensive! The longer bed is more versatile, no question, but it won’t fit into many garages. It’s a toss-up.

Yes! That’s the reason those folks in Texas were able to power their homes during last winter’s massive power outages. I used it on Saturday to program my coffee maker set it to brew espresso shots for my softball team between morning playoff games. It was on for ~2 hours with tailgate and...

@ricko24 - That is very good. I've also noticed that my mileage has improved a bit over time (about 6,500 miles to date). I've filled my tank about 10 times, now. For my last fill-up, I decided to try to drive in Eco Mode and keep my speed down to see what kind of range I would get on a...

@Jloyd98 - ‘Sorry to hear this. I fears this might happen so I cancelled my own order back in May. (Truck had already sat 2 months with many to go). I went on a broad search and found a pre-delivery F-150 in my preferred spec and color (Platinum Crewcab Powerboost in SQ, Special Black...

@ RogueProeliator - This sounds like an interesting solution to faded black plastic. That you’ve personally done so, says a lot. I’ll take note and file it away for future reference. Intrigued! In this situation, we’re not trying to address UV fading. Many of us found white marks on the...

@Indiana2021F150 - No, I have not had the white spot problem return. ? I am no salesperson or spokesperson but I have found CarPro DLUX to be fantastic. I used it to coat all exterior plastic surfaces. In my 15th week since applying it and it looks as good as day 1. The manufacturer claims...

@ZWARRIOR - 23.5 MPG is exactly what I am averaging too (5,200 miles so far)! I am also surprised how much I like the Autofold mirrors - not just to prevent damage but as a quick visual check that I’d locked the truck (and didn't leave my keys). It’s funny but I have never even tried the...

@AutonomousHybridF150 - Thanks for sharing! Coincidentally, I tried this just yesterday. 700.6 miles driven but showing 2 miles left in the tank (I didn't have the guts to go below E). I refilled it as before (using that 'sissy' technique you referenced) and it took only 29.96 gallons. I...

@Acob720 - Ugh. That is just brutal. Sorry to hear it. I ordered a RetraxPro and was frustrated that it took 5 weeks.

@daytpwr - Maybe its the flash from the night photo (or my old eyes) but I don't see that this is rust. The Transfer Case and axel definitely have the surface rust that you referenced but is the beige(?) color on the frame rust or is it perhaps the primer color? At about the 2.000 mile...

@Whoosh - Looks great! I am almost done with my own additions and mods. Its turned into quite the list, as I write this ... COMPLETED - Finish Protection: - 2 coats CarPro CQuartz UK 3.0 ceramic coating - 1 coat Gliss 2.0 top coating - CarPro FlyBy Forte v3 glass coating (sunroof...

@JediNut - I bought these as well. There isn't one specifically described as being for the 2021 F-150 but any one which has the spring-loaded cup holder inserts. I recall it was the F-250. The best part is that you can get any custom graphic you want on these. 2 for $20. I bought a set...

And Tires! I have a Platy also and really dislike the Hankooks!

@TexasTrash - Love it! This both looks great and will protect your investment for years to come. Well done! Q: What brand of Ceramic Coating did you use? (I did mine a couple of months ago, using CQuartz UK 3.0 and top-coated with Gliss 2.0).
