  1. New "Ford Truck Bed Camera" in Ford App

    I never understood why Ford did not install a camera to keep an eye on the bed while hauling stuff and driving down the road. I know this camera is for a different purpose, but they could have killed two birds with one stone...
  2. Need Opinions - How Safe is an Orbital Buffer?

    I know a lot of information has been thrown at you. There is a lot to consider when using a dual action polisher (also known as a DA polisher). Do your research. Plenty of YouTube videos out there on how to properly detail your vehicle with a DA polisher. I personally would start with...
  3. Beware of Lithia Driveway extended warranty.

    As others have said, only buy Ford ESP. With the deals you can get online (Flood Ford, Grainer Ford, etc.) why risk a third party warranty. At least with the Ford ESP, you know what you are getting and what to expect (good and bad).
  4. I almost killed my engine!

    You can do what I did... Instead of buying a $40 drain plug, you can buy a $4,000 car lift for your garage... (Kidding - Sort of) :). Makes oil changes really easy. Glad things worked out for you...
  5. Buy ESP now or wait…

    For me, it is piece of mind. I would get it as soon as possible. As someone mentioned above, with all the electronics these new vehicles have, $2,000 or $3,000 (depending on options) is worth it (at least to me).
  6. wtf??? Customer Satisfaction Program 25B08

    In my opinion, Dealerships are hit or miss. I have had some great experiences at dealerships and some terrible experiences. Fortunately, I live in an area where there are several Ford dealerships within a 15-20 mile radius.
  7. Rust remover tip!!

    FYI - As of 09/19, Amazon has the Rust-Oleum branded version in stock (both the spray and gel).
  8. Oil Change Timeline, sticker or dash?

    In my opinion, dash or 5,000 miles (whichever indicates an oil change is needed first). If I am lazy, I never go over 6,000 miles. My last oil change was about 5,500 miles and I was at 31% on the Oil Life Monitoring System. I do my own changes and use Mobil 1 Full Synthetic with a motorcraft...
  9. Visible pattern in replacement door glass

    Installer should have contacted you right away and asked how to proceed. At least you have a repaired window until the new glass comes in.
  10. 5.0 Oil Level after dealer oil change!

    Both my 2023 Tremor and 2024 XLT require 7.75 quarts (for a V8) per the owners manual. When I change the oil, I put in 7 quarts and a new filter. After running the engine, I let it sit for 15-20 minutes and check the level. It usually shows within range at the top of the dipstick.
  11. Ford ESP through Granger - Not Cheap

    My last three vehicles I used Flood Ford for my ESP without any issues.
  12. 2nd Motorcraft battery dead in 3 year span

    Personally, three years on a Motorcraft battery has been about average for me. I had a 2020 Explorer ST and a 2017 Explorer Sport and both vehicles needed the battery replaced at about three years. Just my experience.
  13. Tire Size - Stock F-150 XLT

    Thanks Tom... At this point, I am not interested in raising the height of the truck without gaining ground clearance. Appreciate the input.
  14. Tire Size - Stock F-150 XLT

    Excellent….. thank you for the assistance!
  15. Tire Size - Stock F-150 XLT

    When I purchased my 2024 F-150 XLT, it came with 275/60R20 all-terrain tires on 20" chrome-like PVD wheels (rims). I am trying to figure out if I can increase the tire size for ground clearance without buying new rims, adding a lift kit, or making any other modifications to the existing OEM...
  16. 24 F-150 XLT 10R80 Whine and Screeching

    Yea... I would not be happy with that. Did they check any of the fluids or do a basic inspection? Unfortunately, I do not have a clue. Sorry!
  17. No GPS issue - 2024 XLT

    For me, it is what I know and used to. I'm sure CarPlay is just as good.
  18. No GPS issue - 2024 XLT

    I had this happen occasionally on my former 2020 Explorer ST. I believe it was from parking it in the garage and loss of GPS signal. I used to fix the issue by soft booting the sync system (radio). Depending on what version of Sync you have, you will press a series of buttons at the same...
  19. Under seat organizer

    Very interesting....
  20. Dealer seemed to use truck for personal use

    I am really surprised at some of the responses. I find it extremely unprofessional for them to drive it to a Cracker Barrel and leave it in a public parking lot while they eat (assuming this is what happened). It's one thing to test drive it, but it's another thing if they are leaving the...
