Looks like the EVs and the Edge got it. I think they threw it on the Edge to keep them selling for 2024. They decontented the shit out of them, then killed it off entirely after '24. Wireless AA is nice.

I put Everstart MAXX batteries from Walmart in everything. No need for a space grade battery. JC, Delphi and Exide make nearly every auto battery sold in the US. I hgihly doubt they made a "bad batch". They sometimes use slightly different plate configurations to get different CCAs within...

Keep an eye on the junkyards for any newer trucks that come in. It's going to have to be a rollover to get something that new in the yard, but you can get the "common to all F150" parts like the radio surround, power seat buttons, console parts, etc....

I have a battery tender on everything that is not a daily driver.

Or not going fast- depending on your frame of reference.

Now do the Hellcat Chargers.

I'd bet the thin outer layer of the mirror assembly is warped due to them baking the parts after painting them.

I would not touch them until they make noise. My truck is 12 years old and has zero issues with the IWEs. If it ain't broke...

It literally says that right in the TSB using standard English words.

Y'all need bigger garages. My house was purchased due to it's location and the huge attached garage it had. The guy I bought it from used it mainly as a home woodworking shop. He had a Jeep parked sideways in the bay that was added. I figured if he can park in it sideways, it's big enough.

Watched BigClive do a teardown on a set of lights like that on YT the other day. Tiny ARGBs. Seemed OK to me.

Fords typically run the A/C in all modes when it's above freezing- expect for floor only mode and vent only mode (with A/C button not lit/on). It's for humidity control. Not sure how your 2011 is setup in that regard, you'd have to check each vent setting and see if the A/C kicks on. If you...

FordApologistOne is on the scene of another blown Ford engine! Let's see how he apolgizes for Ford this time....

Pulley it. Those thoughts will be gone forever.

Hamilton. It checks out. He is looking for a bull plate.

No you are right, Honda engines are always being replaced and Ford's have zero issues!

I guess you are right then! Ford engines are the best, and none of those discussed have ever had any design issues in the last 20 years.

Whatever Gen it is. Prior to 2019 2.0L EBs fail left and right. 1.5L. 3 cylinder. All junk. It was the owner's fault. Sure. There are three Ford 3.5L engine generations. 3.5L N/A. 3.5L EB Gen 1. 3.5L EB Gen 2. Each built upon the prior and they all have timing issues.

Why did it end if they sold so well? Ford still sells a S/C V8 off road truck. Why does Ram no longer sell them?

Put a rubber mat down. My bed is sprayed with the mat on the floor. You still have to watch your wheel wells, but the mat will prevent damage to the bed floor. They are cheap, easy to clean, easy to replace, they prevent things from sliding around but its not too grippy either, and they are...

The Raptor is all about suspension. Ram failed 100%, as usual. They delivered an overweight pig and said- "but 700 HP!!!!" It may be fast on pavement.... Ford delivered on what Ram promised with the TRX when they sold the Raptor R. Fast and light, with a spectacular suspension...

Yea, I agree- they had nearly a decade and basically prodced a heavier Gen 1 Raptor with a blower.

A Gen 1 Raptor suspension is not much better than the TRX- if at all. It's nearly as heavy as the TRX. Just not as nose heavy. Less power, less gears. It's a Ford though, not a crappy Ram that will be junked due to faulty electronics in 20 years.

Yes. With a big if. If a vacuum line section near the IWE just fails suddenly, say from damage off roading- then yes, it should simply engage 4WD and you'll be stuck in 4WD until you get it fixed. In reality, it's usually a tiny vac leak that prevents the splines from fully disengaging. There...

Ford used to have the same thing from 1996 to 2004 on the passenger side axle. However, unlike GM and Ram- it was reliable, and did not fail. They did have issues with the vacuum motors that actuated the disconnect in the ESOF trucks, but if you had the manual shifter or changed out to a cable...
