    Eco Comparison

    I did go back to his truck and look. Brakes are indeed same size. I assumed they were larger because it stops that much better. BUT, as was clearly my intent with the post, who cares!!! Jenny is at 11K now, and could not be happier. And, the fact that the brakes are same size does not make...

    Eco Comparison

    FWIW, my boss just replaced his leased 2015 Ecoboost 4x4 with a brand new Escalade. I drove his Ecoboost back to his home. The truck has good acceleration, but it's not my Raptor. Jenny has a way better acceleration. His truck has 31K miles on it, and it has never given him one days...

    Upfitter Pet Peve

    I hit mine all the time grabbing my Sunglasses out of the holder. Not so much while opening sunroof/rear window.

    Kicker subwoofer

    FWIW, I had the sony system in my gen1, totally sucked and I replaced every speaker. Opted out on my gen2, bought an 801a and added the kicker. Absolutely better than the stock sony system. I honestly cannot understand why Ford stuck with sony for sooooo loooong.

    Added Applique To Non-applique Tailgate

    Quite the opposite. I wanted the appliqué, but found my truck without it below MSRP, so I bought the vehicle and added it a few days later.

    Serious questions for those who are convinced that an Ecoboost replacement is coming

    10K with same result. Have nothing to complain about. Guess I'm stuck in limbo on the "Wait and Hate" list.

    Weep Hole Question

    I apologize to all. Been a while since I've visited FRF, yet conversation always seems to float around this topic, and here I go kicking it off again. My truck truly does rock.

    Weep Hole Question

    My Bad Been off the forum for a while, and when I return to see if anything is new, NOPE. I truly started it to let doubters out there know that my truck Rocks. Now SS77 knows of at least one happy owner. I humbly apologize to FRF as a whole.

    Weep Hole Question

    Note, now says drilled the weep holes in order to get rid of his EcoBoost. Has no idea if it worked, or what the long term consequences were. Yet proclaims it's the cure all for the EcoBoost. How the hell would you know? Another way to read his post is: I was one of the unfortunate 1 in 1000...

    Weep Hole Question

    So, I am at 10K on my newest screw. Is there some magic mileage number I need to be worrying about before I do something stupid, like drill a weep hole into my truck. I live in a high humidity area, on an island no doubt, and I keep stomping the accelerator, and the truck continues to take off...

    GEN 2 Shudder at Idle with AC on.

    Maybe, time will tell. I'm approaching 10K and I've only felt the AC kick on twice right after I got it, and it never affected my trucks performance. Certainly, mine has never done anything that a passenger would comment on.

    GEN 2 Shudder at Idle with AC on.

    Sounds as if yours is different than what others experience. Hope it gets worked out some how.

    Tire Opinions

    Rotated the Ko2 set I had on my Gen 1 every 5k miles, had 60k on them when I traded in on my Gen 2. Still looked good, 40-50% tread left at trade in. My Gen 2 has 7,500 miles, tires were rotated 1,500 miles ago, no uneven wear.
