It was a 3rd party Wolfbox camera. It has parking mode, which would for sure drain the battery, but I thought I had it turned off. I don't really know since I went nuclear without doing much investigating.

I did a little farting around and I'm sad to say, I actually think it might be the camera. I don't know if there was a weird setting or what, but those valley spikes had me concerned so I factory reset the cam and did some reconfigurations and I haven't seen any drain over the last few days...

I use Auto climate almost exclusively, and sometimes the AC turns on during the winter. I'm not sure what drives that or not, but AC helps with fogging windows so maybe there's some intelligence there. Definitely not on all the time, though. Are you saying the ACCM module draws power even when...

For sure. I lock it religiously when not driving and it routinely sits at least over night locked, if not for a few days (since I work from home). The battery typically lives between 40-60% regardless of my driving habits. However, it bottomed out in the 30s regularly during the DSM moments. I...

My Ford app for sure is still calling it deep sleep mode. This is the message as of 8:26 AM this morning. "Remote features disabled to preserve battery" "... has entered Deep Sleep mode to conserve battery energy." It's pretty random, as I work from home, but they "confirmed my battery was...

Just finding this and even though I'm a 2025 with a theoretically new/better battery, I'm having these problems and the dealer is giving me the standard "your battery's fine" runaround even though my truck goes to sleep basically any time it's under 40 degrees. So I might as well try this ...

I ..... don't hate it xD

Good to know. I have a slightly more annoying problem in that it shouldn't be in deep sleep in general given my driving habits so I'm likely just a lemon. Frustrating.

Well good news! You didn't miss out on the deep sleep problem with the 25. I have a 25 and still get it.

Yea, I live in Wisconsin. This state is swampy the everglades in summer. I don't know what they're talking about, lol.

My water barriers are a little warped and I don't really remember them arriving like that. It's enough that smaller debris will still make it in. Obviously, better than stock, but I'm concerned about long-term viability and wear.

Sounds like you either need to contact Ford directly or accept the design. "Air Conditioning" isn't just "Make Air Cold-ishioning". 1. I've manually used the AC in the winter before. It has its purpose. 2. Just because you did it one way in the past, doesn't mean it's the right way. 3. Maybe...

This. I'm 6'2 and don't find the need to be all the way back to drive comfortably. I randomly drive for Lyft in my Maverick and can even afford to move the seat up to give a little extra room if I REALLY need to. Most adults will be alright in the back (see Lyfting) as long as you aren't all the...

Is your tail just your version of something like this? www.ebay.com/itm/157223511956

The tails and under seat are what I'd be targeting. Done a decent job of getting my rig mostly black and white, but my tails still remain as the "pop of color". Would love to get rid of that, at least while it's turn off!
