500 mile review

[df4801]

I know its still very early in ownership but wanted to post because I almost cancelled my order after reading all of the owners with problems.

I bought a AG screw/ 802a, sunroof, heated wheel/seats - Ordered Nov. 2016, built March 2017. Had 15 miles at pickup.

I have inspected for hours and tested everything thoroughly

I have not had a single problem or issue yet.
Fit/finish is perfect.
Tires balanced and ride perfect.
No harsh shifts at all.
Don't mind the sound of the engine/ enhanced sound, etc
No glitches with sync.
Sunroof without even a drop of leak even under pressure
Brake feel/ stopping power is good to me.
Everything works as supposed to.

Ride is much smoother and comfortable than I expected and I am very happy with that. Only have really got on it a few times and power is impressive for a truck.
Overall, very glad I purchased.

Dislikes-
The auto stop, just bothers me in stop/go traffic. I would disable it but am sure that I would crack the plastic or something trying to jump the switch.
My phone always goes to the loudest volume after I leave truck, very annoying
The loud horn noise after setting locks/alarm.

Maybe they figured out the kinks or I am just lucky so far, but wanted anybody on the fence to hear a good review instead of just all the negative ones

There are far more positives than negatives. The negative reviews are only amplified by Gen1 haters for some reason..

Glad you're enjoying your truck, not all gen1 owners are ******** either!

Same experience at 3200 miles. Zero issues; flawless so far.....

2k miles, not a single issue. And I used to turn a wrench for a living so I'm a harsh judge.

No problems with 3900. Made a few adjustments electronically with Forscan which makes it great.

I'm at 345 miles and I agree with everything you said. I don't mind hitting the auto start stop button just becomes routine.

I pretty much have the same build as the OP, but without the sunroof. March 2017 build, 1,425 miles and same experience. I examined every inch of the truck from top to underneath, tried every electronic function, looked at every stitch on my interior accent pkg, etc. I can't find a damn thing wrong with it. So, off to a great start and will cross my fingers for good reliability in the future. It's a great truck and a blast to drive. Can't wait to take it to the dirt!

Just did the Auto On/Off disable through FORScan. This is a life saver and the bet upgrade to my truck yet. Easy and works great with no side effects but maybe increase in some MPG's (who cares!?)

Can you still turn it back on temporarily using the button, or is it completely disabled once you recode the module?
