In looking for a new truck with larger payload, my current 2021 f150 has a payload of 1600lbs. I know this is dependent on features on the truck however, I saw a chart that indicated that some 21-23 have payload in excess of 3000 and 24's with 2300 payload. I'm looking to tow approximately...
I currently have a 2021 f150 ecoboost and use for pulling a travel trailer for camping. Has been great but i want to buy a larger trailer and the max payload and Gvwr arent enough. Am considering looking for a used 22 -24 powerboost. The trailer dry is 5800 and the tongue is 594. Would need...
Thought I posted this question, but can't find it so resending.
On a recent trip the Trailer Blind Spot does not seem to be working correctly.
Blind spot is turned on for car.
When I hook up trailer, says Trailer Blind Spot ready.
When I go to Vehicle - Towing screen (where there are options...
Mechanic at my local garage told me I should increase tire pressure on truck when towing. Recommended driving is 35 psi with max being 65 psi. Not heard this before. Wondering if this is true or depends on what towing, weights etc.
Thanks
I haven't tried to get AA to start without plugging it in for awhile because I've had issues with it working. So by default if I want AA, I plug the phone into the jack in the storage area under the radio. (using the plug in the arm rest storage just charges for me).
Anyway, I'm trying to get...
Recently (don't recall this happening earlier), when I'm on the phone (not through android auto or iphone version)in the truck, I get this beep. No message is displaying.
I wish I could give more info, but haven't a clue as to what this is.
First, let me state that mechanically, I am a beginner but have a BF that knows more.
I have a 21 f-150 Lariat Supercrew with V6 Ecoboost. I have the Max Tow Package. My Backup assist uses the stickers, not the sensor. I do not have the 360 camera.
So, I've been reading posts about the OEM...
This is definitely beginner tire questions but I'm looking for new tires for my 2021 Lariat Supercrew and need some advice.

I do a bit of offroad while upland bird hunting and pull a 25ft TT.
Here are the weights for the trailer I'm pulling:

My question does not apply to Android Auto or Apple CarPlay. When receiving text messages on my phone, ability to "hear" the message. When I do, it lists the full time (I think compared to Greenwich meantime), who from, and lists everyone that received the message (group texts). Then...
Hoping someone has done this. Trying to hook up MP3 player to audio or at least be able to hear it through the speakers. Have tried bluetooth, player doesn't find the truck, tried plugging in USB player, not an option to add to audio menu. Any suggestions please?
I've looked in the manual (not very clear) and played around with the buttons and can't seem to figure it out. When I open truck door to get into truck (not running), I want the interior lights to turn on. Can't figure it out. Can someone provide insight on what I need to do?
Thanks

Purchased in Oct 2022. I used the hitch 6 times but did not use the sway bars.
Nothing wrong with the hitch, purchased a trailer that came with one, so no longer needed.
Paid over $500. Asking $300.

I recently bought a Fastway E2 trailer hitch. Just bought a trailer that came with an Equal-i-zer hitch. My understanding is the Equal-i-zer has 4 pt sway control where the Fastway only has 2. Does that make the Equal-i-zer a better hitch? Does it reduce sway more? Or would it not be...

I am wondering if anyone has recommendations for add on tow mirrors. I didnt get the factory tow mirrors and am planning a short trip and thought it might be a good temporary solution. I have the 2021 f150 lariat.
Thanks for any info.

when traveling with our dogs, I'm putting the kennels in the back seat floor. However, I would like to have some kind of riser or storage container that the kennels would sit on top of. This increases our inside storage and by being underneath the kennel, can't be seen.
I want it to cover...
Have had my truck since November, driving locally. MPG about 15.7.
Took the first long trip with the truck to Charleston from Chicago.

Very comfortable drive. Driving/parking in downtown Charleston was a bit challenging but doable.
Used truck's navigation rather than...
I'm trying to add a device (MP3 player) using bluetooth. I follow instructions in the owners manual and "add a device" is not an option. Anyone else having this issue or have ideas on what the problem might be?
Thanks
