  1. Auto stop start

    If you go to the center screen and the Information Menu, then select AutoStartStop, the reason is displayed. It's likely due to the battery charging. I've found ASS will also not work if just the front defroster button is pressed.
  2. Remember your first mini truck from back in the day?

    OK been watching this tread for days, and it finally prompted me to dig out my old photo album to show my first 2 trucks: First is a 78 Toyota Hilux 5 speed. Bought used in 85. Had a lot of interior customization (sadly no photos). Had a small chrome steering wheel with a tack mounted on the...
  3. Financing outside of dealership

    I joined Navy Fed and was approved for the loan. Showed to my local CU and they matched it (4.625 for 60 months 9/23).. Dealer couldn't touch the rate and gave me no trouble with outside financing,
  4. Auto start/stop hasn't been working

    I posted this recently with another user with similar ussue: It might be different on the Lariat (bigger screen and maybe different menu layout) but on my EB XL: If you go to the center screen and the Information Menu, then select AutoStartStop, the reason stop/start isn't working is displayed...
  5. Auto Stop Quit Working

    Checked this morning on my EB XL: If you go to the center screen and the Information Menu, then select AutoStartStop, the reason is displayed. Photo was taken with engine just started.
  6. Auto Stop Quit Working

    I was referring to auto stop/start, not auto start. Assumed OP was referring to stop/start but could be mistaken.
  7. Auto Stop Quit Working

    I don't recall exactly where, but in the info center in the dash there is a place to see why stop/start is not engaging. Found how get to it on this forum but don't see it now when I did a quick search. When I found it I had reasons like engine not up to temperature and battery not charged...
  8. Thoughts on Wildpeak AT3 Deal?

    I think I bought the same set (BS Bandlands take offs) last summer from a guy on CL. Originally wanted $1000, then $900, I offered $800 and he accepted. Bought them before I got my truck delivered. Was relieved when I installed them that they actually had TPMS sensors (really can't tell by...
  9. Tailgate Hole revisited, with easy solution

    Thanks to the info on this forum I emailed the zip file for the 2 plastic covers to my local library and 24 hours and $2.60 cents later I had the covers. The best they had was PETG plastic. Thin but worked. They snapped right in.
  10. New owner Bed Cover

    I recently ordered (and returned) the Gator SFX. I liked the fact that it was trifold and simple to install, but had large (scary) air pocket at highway speeds at front half of the bed, in spite of my following installation instructions and watching install video on Realtruck web site. Also...
  11. Auto Start Stop on XLT AWD EcoBoost?

    I found (inadvertently) if climate is on defrost setting (just defrost) it doesn't engage. Defrost setting stays same after shutoff, so if you live in a moderate climate you can set and forget about auto s/s.
  12. $500 Farm Bureau Cash Reward Rebate – My Experience

    I ordered September 22, Joined Illinois FB early July 23, and took delivery mid September 2023, getting price protection. Dealer was not able to apply at time of purchase (I think due to operator error entering cert.). Have seen in from reliable sources (Ford Video Guy) and Ford FB 800#...
  13. Aftermarket Wireless Bluetooth?

    On mine, Wifi changes from my home wifi network to smartbox-4EF0 (wifi AA adapter). Bluetooth shows "Maverick". Turning off bluetooth on my phone has no effect (truck still shows Waze maps and plays Spotify). Edit: Bluetooth on my Android turns itself back on after I shut it off (tried several...
  14. Aftermarket Wireless Bluetooth?

    I think you are referring to wireless (vs. stock wired) Carplay/AA? I used this for AA and it works great. Was $40 when I ordered. Used Wifi (not Bluetooth) technology: amazon.com/dp/B0BR869XQ7?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details
  15. Little must have items?

    As others have said: wireless AA/Carplay adapter. I keep my phone in my pocket most of the time. If I plug in to charger it tends to stay there when I leave the truck :ROFLMAO:. With AA within under a minute of starting the truck my radio (or Spotify) and Waze up and running the way I have them...
  16. Tonneau cover that is easy to remove?

    Really wanted to like it but wind really seemed to be stretching the cover material. When I sent the picture of pooling water mfgr said it was defective. Didn't really want to take a chance on another one.
  17. Tonneau cover that is easy to remove?

    I just purchased a Gator SFX soft trifold a week ago. Unfortunately, I am exchanging for another cover. Air would form a "bubble" at the front of the bed at highway speeds, and it leaked considerably even after doing some extra sealing along the front per RealTruck video. After rain, water...
  18. Ford loophole for giving us the Farm Bureau discount? (Updated)

    AFAIK mine was never denied. Saleman had trouble submitting because he had mistaken an L for a one on the certificate.
  19. Ford loophole for giving us the Farm Bureau discount? (Updated)

    Reviving my own thread to say that 12 days after purchase I received my $500 Farm Bureau check from Ford, after receiving price protection for a September 2022 order, and joining the Farm Bureau in early July 2023. In spite of what very knowledgeable people have posted in good faith, stating...
