Well, I added Eco and Sport modes via Forscan and took my little mule Pepe out for a spin yesterday. Was figuring I'd get a mild boost from Sport. Holy sheep shit, was I ever surprised! Sport mode got my attention with the bonus of my head snapping back a bit. My old 4.0l 6 banger manual...
So I've got the Autostop/Autostart feature disabled, and added the Sport and Eco driving modes. What else should I consider? I'm especially interested in tweaks that make the truck less authoritarian, for example maybe getting rid of that awful seatbelt warning every time I fire up the...
So I'm loving my brand spankin' new FX4, but have a couple concerns already.
I live in extremely cold country, below zero temps almost every night through our long ass 6 month winters. We see -30 and even sometimes -40 nights aren't unheard of or unusual. We're already seeing low single...
Ideally, I'd like to find a good set of Triple Peak All Season tires. Unfortunately I'm on a (low) budget. Anyone know of any great deals right now on Triple Peak Snowflake tires?
Otherwise I'm considering ordering set of Goodyear Reliant tires at 235/65r17 on Black Friday sale at $91 bucks a...
I saw a post awhile back where someone has 3D printed a plate that really cleans up the area around the trailer connector. I have the 4K towing package, so I'd like to find one that fits around both the installed 4 and 7-pin connectors. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Well, some of you may have seen my stories I've posted about the ordering process. Like my mom used to say, things usually work out for the better...
In a nutshell, I'd tried to order in 22 but missed the window. Asked to be put on 23 order list, but apparently wasn't and I didn't remember...
Looking at some blackout decals to replace the FX4 decals. They come in different sizes (with 12" the smallest), and I haven't decided if I want to stay with stock size or go just a bit smaller. How long are the factory decals?
I'm looking at getting some paint protection film on Amazon, specifically to install aftermarket splash guards and fender flares. I'm thinking a tape style roll will work best, but I'm seeing rolls from 1/2" to 2" wide. I'm leaning toward a 2" twenty foot roll. I guess it's just the areas...
Seeing quite a few on Amazon and FleaBay with varying prices. Any recommendations which ForScan scanner is the best choice for functionality and bang for the buck? Thanks
The Start/Stop Eliminator and the Start-X Remote Starter. It looks like both install to the OEM wiring underneath the driver's side dash. I'm thinking about purchasing both, but wondering if they will play together?
If anyone has had success running both, or not, I'd like to hear your experience.
Just brainstorming. Wondering if anyone has rigged up a pure sine wave inverter into the bed cubby? Curious what the included wiring is capable of handling. I have a small 400w pure sine wave inverter I'd like to install into a cubby. It can also plug into a 12v automotive (cigarette...
Stumbled across this video on YouTube, I was looking to see what a bone stock XLT FX4 is capable of. Forgive me if it has been posted elsewhere on the board. I was impressed by the Mav's AWD capability. Not too shabby at all. This is gonna be fun!
So I no nothing about Forscan, but unlocking some highly desired frills like access to all the drive modes and sign recognition is VERY interesting. Just curious if there is a way experts can help newbies remotely, maybe even for a small fee? Have any Forscan gurus devised something similar to...
On smaller purchases I usually don't go for these, but I'm seriously considering looking into this when my truck arrives. I'm guessing the salesperson will propose an extended warranty at closing.
How much does an extended warranty cost, or are different "plans" available for purchase? Would...
I know it ain't gonna happen, but this is my biggest frustration with the order process.
I'd mentioned in another post that I initially had the splash guards and floor liners on my order. I contacted my salesperson to cancel them a full 10 days before I was notified by Ford of my truck being...
I guess I'm out of the loop, I thought the XLT had one of those fancy newfangled SecuriCode keyless entry keypads installed. So Ford wants extra for a dealer to install it now? Bastids! 🤬
So can this supercool 007 tech be purchased post sale, maybe with some of those handy FordPass points?
