First sub 30 degree day. Noticed that after almost an hour of driving my trans temp gauge (STX so its not exact temp) never got to its normal position. Usually its basically pointed 6 oclock but it didnt even get halfway to that. Is that normal?

So my 23 STX 5.0 was updated with 23-PU0813-DOR-UP2 this morning. Googling the code, people were getting this update in November/December of 2023. Why are my updates so far behind? My battery charge does not appear to be low. I also believe there was some sort of ECU update as my cluster...

Why would you need E rated tires when the load capacity of SL rated tires are higher than the axle weight rating? E.G. I have 275/60r20 Mickey T Baja Bosses STD. Each tire has a load capacity of 2679lb @ 44psi. My Rear GAWR is 3800lb. Doesn't that mean I have almost 1600 pounds of leftover...

This pic is looking directly in from the passenger side wheel well. Is this improper head gasket installation or just goop from the timing cover. Straight down is the timing cover line. Theres some brown gunk which could be oil seeping but there does not appear to be fresh oil nor has it...

For those of us in the negatives or single digits, hows your truck holding up? The 5.0 is a little hesitant to start but she idles at 1500 for a quick warm up then backs down over time. Transmissions a little rough when its cold. No battery issues to report. Might do the "flood mode" to prime...

Was at the dealer getting my oil changed and noticed that all the 23's on the lot had different leaf springs than me. My lower is a lot beefier but the new truck has 3. Is the lower leaf spring even a leaf spring? Anyone know why mine is different? I have a 23 STX. I do not have a max tow...

Are there kits to physically remove the '21+ Cylinder deactivation yet? Looks like it would all be work under the valve cover but I am not a mechanic. From what I read there are oil solenoids that deactivate specialized rockers? So maybe would be a rocker swap and capping off/deactivating the...

275/65r20 on the stock STX rims. Posting for future buyers to see. 2" RC level. No offset. No rubbing. No trimming. Sub 60mph lie-o-meter says I am getting 18-19mpg Highway speeds says I am doing about 17-18mpg. GPS says I am about 2-3mph off my speedo. Assuming mpg is lower due to that.

Posting Blackstone results for anybody curious. Motorcraft Synthetic Blend 5w30 done by dealer. Having them do it since I have ford points. Will probably switch to Amsoil FS 5w30 at some point. Viscosity is a little low for being less than a 5k oil change. Is that just a factor of the...

Hey all - Looking to have the dealer install the factory trailer brake controller on my 2023. Anyone do this yet? What was the price? Did you have any issues after the install?
