  1. Show us what your F-150 tows

    Just a 4’ section of 2x12.
  2. Off-roaded a stock FX4 Powerboost to Leavitt Lake, CA

    If you are looking to remove the air dam, you might also consider the Tremor skid plate kit Ford offers. It looks to have all the fasteners etc. needed to install. I am considering that if my air dam quits working completely. We hit a coyote and it bent up the air dam, but now it looks like it...
  3. Installed Transfer Switch in House

    What happens if you run both the window AC and the bedroom HVAC a the same time? From how you worded it, it sounds like you are picking and choosing a subset of appliances as I do.
  4. Installed Transfer Switch in House

    I can have all my circuits powered and choose to run what I want. Yes, I have to manage a power budget, but everything is available. As an RVer, I am used to this concept - a 30A RV can pull way more than 30A if everything is turned on at once. We learn to manage the budget and turn off some...
  5. Installed Transfer Switch in House

    Because the transfer switch you show is not a clear path to powering the whole house?
  6. Factory catalytic converter protection

    Thanks. While I don’t do a lot of heavy off-roading, I do head down dirt roads and beaches while camping from time to time. And sometimes, the roads can be a bit rough and uneven. This is from Padre Island National Seashore a couple of years ago:
  7. Factory catalytic converter protection

    Thanks. My concern was a little about rattles, but mainly about structural - what happens if I it something?
  8. Factory catalytic converter protection

    I bit the bullet and got over my OCD-ness and installed without the front side bolts, since I didn’t have the frame cutouts on my Job 1 ‘21 PB. Has anyone who also skipped those bolts seen any issues now that others have had the skid plate installed for a while? If so, anyone see any issues...
  9. Platinum Trim Levels - Whats the point?

    Each trim level has different seats; different shapes, materials and bolstering. We tried them all (Lariat to Limitied) in 2021 and liked the Platinum seats the best.
  10. Missing frame holes for Raptor skid plate

    In my case at least, that would mean the front of the skid plate would not be attached. Do you have a link - I did search first.
  11. Missing frame holes for Raptor skid plate

    I have a Job 1 2021 Powerboost FX4. I thought I would be able to install the OEM Raptor transmission skid plate to replace the felt (or whatever) one, but the front access holes for the capture nuts are not in my frame. Would tapping the frame for the bolts work, or does that cause problems...
  12. Ford Mobile Service! This is great!

    I used it for the wiper and brake wiring harness recalls. Very convenient.
  13. Powering my RV with the PowerBoost 7.2K Pro Power Onboard Generator

    In my experience, the cab will get very warm when running in generator mode. Because of that, I leave the AC on.
  14. Powerboost 7.2kW Powering House - My Home Setup and Hurricane Beryl Power Backup Experience

    I have not found the DTE method to be all that accurate Using my PB to power our travel trailer. The problem is that while you are burning fuel idling, the DTE changes based on the MPG estimate, which is now dropping since you are burning fuel but getting no additional miles. This game gets...
  15. Powerboost 7.2kW Powering House - My Home Setup and Hurricane Beryl Power Backup Experience

    Every time @Ford Motor Company makes another social media post about how these trucks are so great at powering houses, we all need to remind them that we can not longer MONITOR this operation remotely since they deleted that capability from the app. While I have only done a post-install test...
  16. Powerboost 7.2kW Powering House - My Home Setup and Hurricane Beryl Power Backup Experience

    I agree. My wife’s prior car would display GPH (gallons per hour) on the consumption screen when the car was not moving.
  17. Pro Power 7.2kW Output Frequency

    I have dug through all the specs I can find and searched online, but I haven’t found any information on the output frequency of the Por Power system. Does anyone know how close it is to 60Hz?
  18. Are Ford Executives Dumb?

    You are misunderstanding the context of the interview (if it is the one with Jim Farley). Historically, the software in these modules has always been outsourced to the auto industry, The module came from the vendor with software from the beginning, Jim was saying he understood the current...
  19. How Long Do You Plan to Keep Your PowerBoost?

    Similar for me. More like “Until they take my license away”. My last truck (‘02 F250 Powerstroke) gave me 19 years / 365k miles. My car before that (‘87 Nissan Sentra) game me 17 years / 165k miles.
