8.3 cents per gallon?!? Hmm...how do I travel down there with a few (or more) thousand gallon tanks, fill them up, and come back? The trip could basically pay for itself!

That manual excerpt was from a 2019 F-150, though, which clearly must have a headlight centerline height of >35", right? So, why doesn't that mention anything about the -2"? Just to be clear, I'm not saying I disagree with your method or don't think it's correct, I'm just stating that I still...

Did I miss it, or do those instructions not mention anything about having the beam 2” lower than the center of the headlights, though? It clearly says to adjust the headlights so that the top of the headlight beam is at the same level as the reference line (which is marked at the same height as...

Oh, I see...so, basicaly the same as what I mentioned about the video I'd seen, where you actually pull your vehicle up to the wall and mark the top of the beam.

What do you mean by "measure top of the beam to top of the beam"? I once saw a video about headlight alignment, and it basically had you pull up close to the wall and mark the top of the beam, and then back away a certain distance and have you adjust the headlights so that they were somewhere...

This might be a stupid question, but if they have to pull the body off of the frame, what does that mean as far as any prep work I have to do before the dealership removes the body? Will the fact that I've hoooked up things like the upfitter switches (using the wires under the hood near the...

Out of curiosity, do you have quite a bit of lift on your truck, and larger tires than stock? I'm running Eibach springs with stock tires on my 2019, and it's about 39.5" to the center of my Morimotos (34" to the bottom, and 45" to the top). Your 44" measurement sounds high to me, but maybe I'm...

Does this thread win “longest title ever”? Haha :p;) Welcome to FRF, by the way!

Looking at the specs, it says it has a 7675lb dry weight. Add in the 48 gals of water (basically 400lb), and you're definitely over 8000lb GVWR. And I know you said the other truck will carry all the rest of the stuff, but does that include the propane tanks? 60 gallons of propane weighs ~250...

Out of curiosity (because I'm still thinking about getting a trailer someday), what trailer are you looking at?

Your final MPG is incorrect...it looks like you averaged the individual MPG values rather than dividing your totals miles driven (1053) by total gas used (80.891), which would give you 13.018 MPG. How dare you report an absurdly high and unrealistic 13.030 MPG! ;)

Have you considered booking through Turo, contacting him, and then using the free cancellation policy if you don't like what he has to say? Looks like you'd have until 1 day before the rental to cancel for free.

"Favourite color"? Should that have been "Favourite Colour", or "Favorite Color"? Or are you hybridizing (hybridising) your spelling to appease those of us on each side of the US/Canadian border? ;)

Ah ha! I knew I wasn't going crazy! Months ago (in winter, here in CO), I was having some sort of work done on my Raptor at the dealer, and I mentioned to them that it seemed like my tailgate had popped open by itself 2 or 3 times previously, and asked them to take a look at it. There was no CSP...

(and also his last time ;))

Out of curiosity, what do you do with the weight? A 2lb weight isn't exactly small enough that you can just hide it behind part of the wheel and not notice it. Do you just let it hang from the wheel?

Out of curiosity, where did your 400lb estimate come from? You said 150lbs for the tonneau cover, so that leaves 250lbs for 4 people, 4 pairs of skis, 1 bike, and 4 bags? How full was your gas tank, too? At 6lbs/gal, assuming you were relatively full, that's another 200+lbs of sprung weight...

So you didn’t do any post processing of the video to stabilize it and keep the horizon level? That’s all just done by the suction cup mount (which must have a gimbal on it)? What mount is that?

@ViMo, please try to condense your multiple replies in a row using the “+Quote” feature when replying in the future. Good luck with your repair!

Cool video! What do you use for your video editing software that does the stabilization, etc?

Plus the MF-1089 is "on sale" right now...this deal can't be beat! :rolleyes:

A few questions, as I'm not really sure what would happen in this situation... Assuming the battery dies, do you just find someone with jumper cables to hook their battery to the remote battery terminals? I suppose it would be possible to hook up one of those portable battery chargers/jumpers...

I’d be interested in hearing @FordTechOne chime in also, because I really think you may be thinking of things that aren’t really happening, or you’re hearing something else (perhaps just the shocks adjusting themselves). The electronic parking brake makes a very distinct sound that’s not easy to...

Is this a feature in the 2020 year Gen 2s? My 2019 never automatically applies the parking brake when remote starting or opening a door. It will automatically turn the parking brake *OFF* it if I leave it on, put the truck in gear, and then step on the gas, but I've never had it automatically...

I was wondering about that also...
