  1. Eco vs Normal drive mode

    Good clarification. "Electric-only" mode....not "hybrid mode" as I incorrectly stated.
  2. Eco vs Normal drive mode

    I have a powerboost and I've found that the car is more eager to go into hybrid mode when in Eco compared to normal mode. Works quite well in medium traffic where I can coast with the engine off for a while but stop-and-go traffic or regular highway speed, it makes no difference.
  3. "Chirp" Sound When Shifting

    I've noticed for the first few minutes in the morning that I'll hear a "chirp" sound when shifting between gears and also when the engine turns off to go into hybrid mode. Anyone else experienced this? My best guess is something is not as lubricated as it should be.
  4. SuperCab Lariat or Platinium

    I think you have a minority opinion here and the sales back that up. The margins on mass produced vehicles are pretty small so manufacturers aren't going to waste their time and resources on something that won't maximize profits and sales. Their market research must show that buyers of the...
  5. Electronics Foam to Store Hitch (or other items) in Under Rear Seat Bin

    I just leave mine mounted all the time. Is that a no-no? Honest question.
  6. F150 Roush Nitemare

    At least in my mind, every passenger vehicle with four wheels is a "car." They just come in different shapes and sizes.
  7. Tow Mode vs. Normal Mode For 6x12 Single Axle Trailer

    You don't need tow mode for something that light. I pulled about 6,000 lbs up and down hills in normal mode and it never gave the slightest indication of any struggle.
  8. F150 Roush Nitemare

    A bit of a random topic but hear me out.... Baby seats are quickly approaching my near future so the appeal of a fun & loud 2-door is slowly transitioning into the desire for a fun & loud 4-door. My current F150 Powerboost is amazing. Absolutely love this car and it does everything I ask of it...
  9. Radio Staying On When Car Off

    Same for my '23 Can't quite pin-point when it was fixed but the issue has been resolved.
  10. Powerboost Reverse Beeping Discussion

    Agreed with above. I did that per the instructions. It helped, but not enough. The plug is sandwiched between the frame rail and intercooler piping. Still not enough room to get my finger up and on top of the plug. I'll try again using some sort of hook to press the tab down instead.
  11. Powerboost Reverse Beeping Discussion

    So I tried to install the MegaOhm resistor this past week. Extremely straight forward and everyone says it takes 5 minutes to install......these people must have pencil-thin fingers. Seriously, how in the world are folks getting their fingers up on the tab to release the coupling? There is about...
  12. Powerboost Reverse Beeping Discussion

    I bought the MegaOhm bypass yesterday. Excited to get it installed and be done with the obnoxious reverse beeping.
  13. Powerboost Reverse Beeping Discussion

    I've read a few of these posts of the years and the opinions seem to be 50/50. For it: "It's federally required, it helps keep people safe, and it's not that noticeable." Against it: "It's obnoxious" I understand the intent behind the law but my issue with it is that modern ICE cars are just...
  14. Never Thought I'd Actually Use the Generator....

    We just used a bunch of extension cords in the moment. But getting that transfer switch on the main panel is certainly on my to-do list now. And they want to ban gas stoves as well ?‍♂️ I'm starting to believe the conspiracies....that they just want to make all residents as dependent on the...
  15. Never Thought I'd Actually Use the Generator....

    Not sure if anyone follows the CA news but it has been a s**t show here the last few days. Fire burning down entire cities and electrical blackouts everywhere. Luckily for me and my family, I was hit with the latter of the two. Whole town went dark - all businesses closed due to no power...
  16. Add self oil change in fordpass

    You used to be able to on the Ford app but they have since removed that feature (no clue why). If they are actively choosing to make this harder for us, then I'm not going to bother with their app at all. @Ford Motor Company this decision is counterproductive.
  17. First Attempt at Towing

    Ask and you shall receive.
  18. First Attempt at Towing

    When traffic allowed, I would coast at 65 mph.
  19. First Attempt at Towing

    Had my first attempt at towing over the weekend. Roughly 6,000 lbs total through some uphill and downhill. Truck handled it like a champ. Averaged 15.6 mpg over about 200 miles (5 mpg during the uphill portions).
  20. Radio Staying On When Car Off

    Everything else seems to function as intended. As for the OTA update - I have no clue. I don't pay attention to those. Whichever was the latest one I presume.
