I think people overestimate the impact of this change. Manufacturers may dump one-2 features, models or motors that were money losers. But after being burned by the fake government generate EV trend the smart business play is to design overall to the higher standards assuming they'll come back

I had an 04 Dakota I bought new and drove for 5 years because the Ford dealers were trying to get all the money at the time from a 22 yr old kid for an 8 yr old F150 platform that was on its way out. Engine and tranny were solid. Front end, not so much. 4.7 V8 out powered by today's base V6s...

2021 XLT. Purchased new 3/2022. Got the ICe to EV transition squeak in mid 2023. Got it replaced under the factory warranty when it finally threw a code in early 2024. Now squeaking again. I plan to ask them to listen for it when I get my inspection next month. Just wondering if they revised...

This involves a complete tailgate rewire as the wiring harness is said to be poorly protected underneath getting hit by moisture and shorting out. Also they reprogram it to need a double button tap on the fob as added insurance against people thinking it is still happening and coming back in. I...

Leer is weird with instructions. I had a piece of plastic trim all the way across the bottom side of a hinge on my 350m start to crack and pull off. I emailed for a replacement and was told it's a spacer clipped at each hinge as part of the manufacturing process that isn't otherwise necessary or...

Aluminum tonneaus in the 1k range are usually skinny panels sandwiching Some sort of FRp type core. You're not getting some big thick beefy piece of aluminum. I'd do FRP. My Leer is FRp. The aluminum sandwiched fiberglass core ones I had did not impress me on resilience.

I had a $1000 Bakflip G2 that was ready for the garbage heap after about 9 years. Among other things the wire release crimps gave out, and the aluminum started to dent around the knobs on top over the screws that secured the bulkhead end from underneath. The prop rod also gave out. On my F150 I...

Got the ESP with rental out to 2030 at which point I plan to either replace it or have an extra vehicle in the fleet. If I buy another car on top of the Powerboost which will probably be a Mustang or Mopar Muscle car I might hold the Powerboost a few years after that and then trade it for a...

2021 Powerboost Oddly enough my screen glitched out and went black a handful of times about a year and a half ago. There may have been updates after that, I forget. But it stopped and the system behaved perfectly for a year, maybe a year and a half. The first glitch which involved backup cam...

Nothing solid yet though just speculation https://www.motorbiscuit.com/range-extended-f150-hybrid/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR4Jshr9BwxRJKCyCOUCl8x4VboFcA5Lra8-8BP3PnQTR2JcmTXXVBqKNOUrlQ_aem_1ksdiIU6NqzXRBcg8zFBrg#2964tz4qfagl2nrfoo4segnph4pm4abe

Has the hook had a safety recall with no fix available til Q3 of next year yet?

I have had a backflip G2 on my old truck, now have a Leer HF350 M on my Powerboost and in between I had a Rugged branded hard folder on the Ford for awhile. I think with a few differences most like the Rugged or the ones in the above photos are the same thing with minor tweaks and changes. 3...

I enjoy mine. Never would have considered one without the 360 cameras but with that it's basically a zero compromise configuration for me. Just took a family trip that would have filled the bed to the brim and then taken half the cab in my 09 Tundra crew. The extra foot here freed up more cab...

On my 350 every one of them I saw reviewed on youtube latched at every fold. I guess as a cost cutting measure by the time I got mine they had taken the latch mechanism off the 2nd fold. But to keep people from complaining about the area not being locked down they put small metal plates on the...

I like the rear slider and moonroof. When I had my 09 Tundra and was shopping I saw the panoramic moonroofs expand to pickups and decided I had to have one. Held out for one on my 2021 XLT and don't regret it. It is open pretty much every time the weather is appropriate for it. Rear slider is...

my previous dog had severe separation anxiety. She was destructive in the most expensive ways possible and needed to be crated at all times when left alone at home until she was about 8 or 9 and just wanted to sleep half the day. my current one is barely out of the puppy stage and still wants...

You cannot increase its capacity, you can improve its ability to haul effectively at its rated capacity.

After readjustment and adding a thick bulkhead seal almost immediately followed by another downpour I have a dry bed. Not even anything on the tailgate

Ok so the 350 is on and adjusted but I left the cab end brackets off for now until my bulkhead sealant strip gets here.Observations we got a heavy rain immediately after I installed it and I was impressed at how it held up. Nothing at the bulkhead although I left out the butyl strip that goes...

Just notified the Leer is in and ready for pickup. Hoping to get it and put it on this evening and maybe do a carwash test by the end of the week, then report back.
