  1. Testing the Kicker Key, 7 Speaker XLT

    I bought the Key 200.4 and 500.1 but haven't gotten around to installing it yet. I did put a high end set of Kicker convertible coax / separate 6-3/4" speakers in. It has a separate crossover box which I can utilize once I put it in the amps. As it's hard to get wires in/out of the doors...
  2. Quick stereo upgrade writeup: Kicker Key 200.4 amp + Morel Tempo Ultra 692 speakers + Rockford Forsgate P300-10T Powered Subwoofer

    I am about to do a similar upgrade, 200.4 as well as the 500.1 sub amp. I was going to add a few lights, so got an Baja Designs sPOD BantamX for fusing / DC distro. Do you think the glovebox is a lot easier than behind the factory head unit?
  3. What is needed to perfectly level a power boost?

    I have a 22 PB SuperCrew FX4 and went with the Fox 2.0 @ 2" level. Yes there is a slight rake, but I like it and do carry stuff regularly for work, and visually at quick glance it's level (enough). I didn't want to go pucks and degrade the suspension and Fox 2.0 was a pretty affordable option...
  4. What do y'all do for a living?

    Production sound mixer - the guy that heads up the sound department for film and television shoots. Former USMC prior to working in the creative industry. There's actually a lot of similarities between the two fields - I get a nice warm and fuzzy when someone up top looses their shit and...
  5. Leveled F150 Powerboost, on Fox 2.5 Performance Series, w/ 34” tires

    22 power boost with Fox 2” level and raptor takeoffs which are 315/70 R 17 and rims are 34 mm offset. The clearance on my upper control arm is tight, but certainly more than 4 mm. All the other clearances look really good.
  6. A modest audio upgrade - your thoughts?

    I have a ‘22 PB XL and have done the research on options and have basically narrowed it down to JL Audio C3-650 or Kicker Q-Class 41QSS674. Both are “convertible component” systems which allow for coaxial mount in the rear doors and also as a separate component tweeter mount for the front door...
  7. Upgrading 2022 F-150 STX halogen headlights to LED head lights?

    I have a harness for sale - XL trim and thought I wanted factory LED upgrade, but at the end of the day have decided to just embrace the work truck look. Made by “Ryan” and just needs forescan updates for full functionality
  8. Afraid To Buy Today’s Ford (Powerboost) Am I Nuts?

    ‘22 PB with $17.5k and all is well, only recall was with wiper motors I think. 7k generator is hella cool. I got the 8 year powertrain warranty because I was concerned about Ford sussing out new tech. From a design standpoint, I do feel the battery is way under capacity, and when the 8 year...
  9. Whats the point of hybrid?

    I’m impressed with the MPG I’m getting but I do feel the system would have benefited from a larger battery. I can coast down hills and reach the max charge of the battery fairly quickly. I also find the ICE operates many times when it doesn’t need to, probably not using too much gas but some...
  10. Was the GEN13 a better looking exterior?

    14 for me over 13 but I think the base XL grill is the best looking.
  11. Add a battery in parallel for more PB?

    I average 5 to 25 miles per trip and live in a moderately hilly area. On longer trips I can definitely max out the battery charge. I find myself starving the battery all the time also, if I'm trying to be energy conscious and keep it easy on braking and accelerating. For me a larger PB...
  12. Will I regret going with XL?

    I tried the build and looks good. But then I have an aversion to chrome and as soon as I tried to go with the black option, it forced a bunch of upgrades - would work for most people I guess. I actually love the base XL grill too, for me it’s the best looking. Maybe will just have to get over...
  13. Will I regret going with XL?

    I went with an XL PB FX4 7.2kw - obviously not a cheap vehicle, but was the only way I could get a front bench, important for me to maximize passenger space. Every other trim forced a center console. I’m not really into the luxury trimmings but the XL seems like a very nice ride. My only...
  14. 2021+ Halogen to Reflector (Quad) LED Headligh/Fog Conversion Harness

    What will be required to make hi-beams work, is it an additional harness or is it an electronic LED driver module?
  15. Plug-in Powerboost

    What would be most useful is if there is a factory service charging port with appropriate charge management circuitry in place to keep the battery in spec. Otherwise looking at tapping into the regenerative braking circuit might be possible? I certainly wouldn't want to bust the 8 year...
  16. Plug-in Powerboost

    I’m highly interested in the ability to charge the hybrid battery. I take delivery of my ‘22 PB this weekend or early next week. I work on film sets in Hawaii so don’t make long trips, lots of small moves, and we have plenty of sun. I want to figure out a way to solar charge the hybrid...
