All you have to do is tell the truck to turn on the ICE when the battery is going low, then you have as much power as your gas tank allows. I can only speculate with how long my small trailers would be powered by a future EREV Lightning, but I want to find out. I will never have a trailer with...

I will take the opposite. A sealed trunk up front along with the open truck bed for hauling is the best compromise possible. You could simply remove the rear seats to service the generator. I don't care about the supposed "noise" in the cab, since it obviously won't be running all the time...

The generator is ONLY for charging the battery.

Hopefully they mount the generator under the rear seats and keep the front trunk. A full-size, 4-door electric truck with a big bed, a range extender in the back somewhere and a front trunk is truly the end game of versatility and flexibility. An open bed for hauling, but then a sealed front...

Like the title says, can a travel trailer be powered or the trailer batteries charged through the 7-pin trailer harness hookup? Since the hybrid can start the engine to charge when it detects the truck battery getting low, it makes me think it would be pretty useful when you stop for the night...

You don’t need any additional dongle for wireless Carplay in a Lariat. I don’t know why OP thinks he does.

Thanks for all the part suggestions and links! I will be picking up a few of them for sure. The steel wheel and actual full-sized spare tire fit into the stock space underneath with no mods needed? I have a 2025 AWD Hybrid 4k, so I think I have the almost full-sized spare underneath...

No XLT gets the Pro Trailer Assist. Only the Lariat.

Yes, the very first 4k tow builds didn't come with the Pro Trailer Backup knob. I forget the correct Ford term, but they switched over for the second build to add the knob.

Yes, I would definitely want the rear patio option with the awning. Have you found any user reviews of the trailer during your research?

Yes.

I have maxed my towing capacity out with open trailers and gotten 21 mpg. The much larger frontal area of the trailer over an open car trailer will probably cost me at least 5 mpg. That track car plus a few extras will put me right around 4k loaded, so it will be interesting to see how much the...

Rush SR1. Length is quoted as 131”, so right at the maximum garage capacity. I would remove the front clip to aid in getting up that steep back ramp and then stack it on top of the car. That would save about a foot of length right there. Everything will be very tight, but doable. I also like the...

I really hope you buy one and report back! This thing seems to hit all the points of what I want. I would transport a small, 1100 lb track car on the inside. It would juuust fit.

Thanks for mentioning that! I am really looking into one of those now, too. It can just fit a small race car that I can take to tracks. The wet bath should work just fine if I sit down to shower and there are models with a rear door deck kit and awning for some shade. My old truck would probably...

I ordered too.

This doesn't work for 2025s? It is listed for 2025, but then the text says it won't work. Which is it?

I said exactly that. They limit air intake at the front of the car. That is better for aerodynamics. There is not some direct flow path for air to vent out of these things, so there is nothing to worry about. They will help with heatsoak when stopped, as they will be an outlet for the hot...

Shutters are to limit air intake. These will vent air, so the exact opposite of what you are worried about.

I originally had a '23 Ecoboost XLT that I had to wait 18 months for. I liked it, but I sold it after 6 months to buy another car that caught my eye. That happens all the time with me. What got me back into the Mav game was the availability of the AWD with the hybrid and also 4k towing. So I...
