I have a very low end truck, 23 RCSB The edges of the (inside, center) rear view mirror are not polished, painted, whatever they do to less cheap mirrors. It creates a prism effect for, say 1/8 all around the mirror edge. The color varies, a lot of yellow, and a whole lot of that particular...

Push the button?

Best bet is a head lamp, a strap with a light on it. Doesn't drop and roll, always facing the right way, like it can read your mind!

I see a lot of questions about trailer/tongue weights. I thought my way though the process, and this would be the minimum effort for correct work. Go ahead and HONESTLY load up your travel team and gear. I called Cat and my area's scale has a 15 foot 'steering' segment, so the longest F150s...

Before 21, and 24 +25, do not have 7k footnote for 53B without 53A. If you have 53A, no matter to you. If you do not, 23 says 7K, and 25 does not have 7K footnote

OK, so you do need the space! Did you happen to look at the years of towing guides for your (similar spec) truck? The data/specs for 21-23 are just strangely different, as though erroneous - either for these years or the preceding/following years. I tried writing the F150 CTO lady, to no...

I see a lot of guys adding their own (me included). When I was done: I had my doubts about at least 1 Forscan change, changing 'Gain'+- showed net in dash display, and squeezing 'Apply' warned not trailer attached. (Edit) On a light tow, I noticed something like 'apply force' shows on big screen...

My online says 9 in 5/GN section, yet the footnote is there on those pages in the info pamphlet - so I have to read that (5/GN section) as footnote applies even though different hitch type in use. It's sure there for the lawyer to show the jury! dadrew - I would seriously consider a lighter...

So, I am modding. I have 4 big bolts in my first real crossmember, visible from the bumper. 2 outers are LCA, the 2 inners, I suspect, bolt in the front differential. I wish to loosen right one, about 3/16ths, slip a bracket under, and retighten. Anyone know, for sure if that's OK? Do ya' know...

Sure.... I went through years of towing charts, for my particular truck over the years, comparing them in detail (as I wrote the F150 CTO lady at Ford). 19, 20 normal max trailer weights - mid 9Ks 21-23 footnote about 7k limit 24,25 back to normal max trailer weights - mid 9ks weird, eh? (I...

If it helps... Strictly reading the charts, you have the higher GCWR - you just cannot get there without breaking another rule. For 'bumper' or conventional towing, you (and I) are limited by a tiny footnote to 7K. (Again, strictly reading, only 53A increases towing, not 53C - doh!) For my...

Following with other Tim's example... I realized my tired logic was flawed...

In my case, I wanted to: Be able to park my trailer, from the front. It will always be low speed, low load, and now much more accurate. Slip my receiver mounted hitch into various vehicles and positions. So, as recovering vehicle, front, truck still anchored the same. However, pull force a...

FFF, have you seen one work? On mine, it does not give me the phone's display at all. It does: Look for apps it 'knows', and then operates them in/through the phone (API's?), and displays them quite differently on the truck display. It's like there are parallel aps, but only 1 version can work...

I have the cheapest 2023 work truck I could build. 2023 RCSB 122 XL 4X4 hitch chrome, oh, 5.0! Anyway, I have manual AC (dual zone?, it's a bench seat pickup!, what 2 zones exist?) And I have learned: windows down, AC full CCW (Max AC, Recirc, Low Temp, etc.), when my fingers get cold I hit the...

Hey Tim, Tim here.... Going back to your first post, I too have a 7000 truck. And, as it is written, anyone without 53A does too. (My size didn't offer it, but 53C, though common sense, is excluded by the footnote.) Anyway, I charted 'my truck' (it's specs) from 19 - 25, only 21 - 23 has the...

I can not get over hearing it... So my test is doing 55 on a flat, for 10 miles or so. If I see 25 mpg or better, I give the truck credit for that and go about my business. I have to assume, below that is my choice, not the truck's problem. In the next apocalypse, I will be sure and stay at...

If anyone is still looking, learning Forscan is worth it for the "Global Windows". Walking towards or away from truck, even low level fob can open or close all windows.

Unless I missed something, we're working in the dark here. First , is the 2025 Ford Towing Guide 'good' in your country? If, yes, then we need engine, wheelbase. rear axle ratio and drive. (there are about 8 different 10400 Max Trailer Weights, with about 6 different GCWRs. Then, we work down...

All right, when I get my cables done, and have to hook 'em up, I'll get pics. But, "in the back", did you mean compressor?
