To start, I absolutely love this little truck and am conflicted on getting rid of it. I think Ford has a great product and I have been extremely happy with it. It's because I love these trucks so much, I ordered another one ('24 Hybrid Lariat in Terrain). That new one will be here soon and I...
I took my daughter to the Ford dealership this weekend. We were exploring some of the new cars, including the Mach E. When we opened the frunk, I noticed the all too familiar FITS slots. The Mach-e has at least two of them. Both are in the frunk.
I was surprised. I searched the manual for...
This is for all the '23 Lariat owners out there.
One of the changes from the '22 to the '23 was the addition of Sync 3 navigation. I don't know why, but I haven't heard anyone discuss it just yet.
If you have a '23 Lariat, have you used the Navigation feature yet?
It's supposed to to be...
There is no arguing that this is a cheap truck and so some things, like the carpet, reflect that. Compared to other cars Iāve owned, the carpet is surprisingly thin and I just donāt think itās going to hold up well. I could see the fibers wearing out very quickly. Since I have kids that ride...
Open question for the group:
Several factors in consideration right now:
As everyone has seen, the resale value on these trucks has been very high and, so far, the vehicle seems to be holding its value very well.
There are virtually no changes between year models.
Also, everyone is expecting...
So, I lucked up and found some fold down jump seats that someone had thrown out. Luckily, they happen to fit inside of the bed!
I snagged em and am currently using them as a ārumble seatā in the back. The first test was our neighborhood 4th of July parade this morning. They were a big hit...
I enjoy reading about what others are doing to their trucks, so I thought I would share as well.
This is in the works, and even close to complete. If you have any suggestions, feel free to pass 'em along!
GOAL: Add accent lighting for the truck that looks as OEM as possible.
I have a...
Trying to channel some design cues from the Lincoln Black Label Edition for the exterior of my Lariat.
What do you guys think?

In my travels, I ran across these off road lights:

I figured this one out the other day.
It's a simple mod, but I wanted to contribute it to the community anyway.
6.5" Screens: IPC 720-07-02 X7XX-XX
That's it. There isn't an easy mode switch for this one that I was able to find.
I tracked this down by comparing the AS-BUILT of an FX4 Lariat...

Sooo.....the Lincoln corsair is also using a 2.5L Atkinson engine. It's built on the C2 platform, just like the Maverick.
What kind of Voodoo are they working with to squeeze...
I don't know who is using what, but here is my setup:
Lariat Lux Hybrid
ForSCAN ver. 2.3.47 running on a Surface Pro 5.
Vgate vLinker FS OBD2 USB Adapter
I'm new to ForSCAN and didn't even know what it could do. I installed the software and scanned my truck. Good Lord... the amount of stuff...
Lariat splash screen on start up shows a truck with:
an XLT grille...
FX4 tow hooks...
and Lariat DRLs and wheels..
It's a good look and would have been great to get a truck that looked like that. Sadly, this isn't available in any trim package. :)
I guess they didn't know what was going to...
Looks like the right size, but out of my price range.

I'm wanting to do something to my truck and wanted to get some feedback from the group before I go too far...
I want to add extra seating to the truck bed for special events. (i.e., watching fireworks, fishing, parades, etc.) The goal is that the truck is parked, the tailgate it down, and...
Maybe it's because of the lack of trucks on the lots or because I've had extreme tunnel vision on my own build, but I JUST realized that the three trim levels all have different grille designs. I thought the main difference on the front of the trucks was the color of the bar across the front...
Oh happy day!
Got a text from the dealership that it's here!
Delivery Window was 5/7 - 5/13, so it's a day earlier than expected.
I will pick up tomorrow after they're done finalizing it.
For those of you who are curious, Here was my timeline:
6/27 - Reservation Confirmed.
8/20 - Order...
