I'll pipe in here albeit I'm in a Gen 2. I keep my vehicles a good long time - 150-200k miles generally, or at least they will stay in the family that long because Im not one to throw money away switching depreciating assets year after year, I have better things to spend my money on, like assets...

lol, subaru and Mini toward the top.... i dont think id trust any of this

lol why only gen 1 owners posting haha

This is one of the most indepth analysis I've seen. Quite interesting.

This was a "customer satisfaction program". Very different then a NTSB Recall.

My knowledge is limited to Gen 2. However, What he says is no joke. I think your best bet is mid perch on factory. We had an 2018 Gen 2 failure this year out west (not my truck, was riding with a buddy) on Adjustable RPG perch collars only, albeit it was adjusted quite high and the truck had...

Yes can never have too many lights! I prefer subtle... i have fogs and behind the grill light bar. Also good job on buying the 1 owner truck. mines at 93k miles and I will keep it a while longer but already have a list of people interested when I sell it. It will be high mileage but likely...

Yes, it sells out quickly, litterally minutes every year. Watch for next year or maybe try a waitlist.

The Gen3 calls for less camber than Gen 2. I've updated my Gen 2 to the Gen 3 alignment specs and it seems to have helped some. Suprised still having same issue on Gen 3

Check out the Snoball! Runraptorrun.com. Also Catchmeoffroad does a winter run in Huron National Forest.

Did the rest of my D Rings this weekend, just a little heat on each from underneath, and no drama. Didn't take much.

Sometimes local dealers do online sales as well. THere are a few here in the Detroit area an prices are similar to tasca... Just have to find which dealer it is to pick it up to avoid shipping. See if any dealers do this locally to you.

Its similar, but its not. I runs and seeps much better in my experience.

Looks like you have a tonnue cover as well, so not sure I can attribute it to that. I've again never had an issue in rain, snow, salty roads, etc. I suggest maybe the best fix is to spray the heck out of the inside of the tailgate and get those wiring harnesses good with some CorrosionX...

ah ok, I am not familiar with the product. What I have seen as most effective is a combination of a cosmoline on certain areas and something like a corrosion x , fluid film, or surface shield ( some type of oil based, seeping product) to keep rust a bay. Repeling elements and sealing out and...

Define rust inhibitor? What did you use?

I thought this was posted in Gen 3.... as you were

One thing I've learned over the years is when you mess with the stock setup, you get to experience some things like this. Whats wrong with the OEM setup?

Im in the detroit area, as antidotal evidence only a set of 5 of these went locally to me for 1100 as brand new takeoffs. Seemingly low but thats what they sold for.

lol, ill have to check mine. Technique? its just pull strait out to ensure the alighnment studs are in the proper place. Ford kills me sometimes. I did notice one of mine starting to get condensation in it.

And for the love of all that is holy, please take it off road....

I hope you get everything worked out usafjames. Its sad whent his happens. My dad got his new 22 superduty and it lost a motor after a year and 27k miles 2 days before they were to come back to Michigan after a month outwest. Its been a disaster to say the least. Ended up escalated all the...

I'm usually somewhere between 5k and 7500k. I also have good friends that are engineers at Ford. The IOLM is how they run all their durability tests, so going off of that you should be good. I like to do it by the time it is down to 25 percent or so.

I have 3 friends that have bought them at MSRP. Its VERY VERY hard but not impossible.
