HF55 transaxle with higher torque electric motor versus the HF45. I would rather buy the updated Maverick versus try and update a first gen... (y)

It's not the psi that is a problem. It is the weight of the pressure sending unit screwed to the tip of the valve stem that causes flexing and eventual failure of the rubber valve stem. Solved by using a metal valve stem. The RV TPMS system allows you to monitor tire pressure and temperature...

Looking forward to the launch! :clap:

What happened? Was this related to the "hard shift" you mentioned in your May post?

Fanteli combo pack strobing 3rd and cargo bulbs, installed early 4/2026. No wiring, just plug in. I use latex gloves when installing bulbs. So far, still good...

Mabett underbody cavity shield, rear bumper cover plate around the hitch & flexible mud flaps. The cover plate was for looks, the other two for protection. Specifically chose the flexible mudflaps because they do not rub the body paint and used existing fastener holes. And in Buffalo, with...

Yep. Still trying to break the brake pedal habit that was necessary on my prior vehicle. Cruise control was on the opposite side of the steering wheel. Wiper lever went down, not up… 😵‍

For a twist... If I remote start first, then I can enter run mode by just pushing the start button, no brake.

$20. Just got it, but I'm thinking of hanging it from a wood a-frame with through bolt, high enough to drop the coupler on the hook, or hook a chain wrapped around the coupler. Or maybe suspend from a farm jack, or a steel pipe threaded into a flange? Still a work in progress... :unsure...

To start, not trying to fire up an argument. Just using this extreme use case and forum members knowledge to learn a bit more about the truck... Thanks to all that contribute. Takes a bit to weed through other 'thoughts' but some great information within. My thoughts going into my questions...

I appreciate you sharing your info as a severe duty extreme use. I imagine that long duration highway mileage makes it easier on the engine oil. I assume synthetic, but do you go with xW-20 or heavier? I'm impressed that the whole drive train is holding up well, the constantly meshed...

I noticed the mileage creep too. Ranko, were you having the oil analyzed by Blackstone? And what were they reporting at these higher intervals? And I'm assuming that the OLM was reporting "I give up, you're on your own... :computerrage:" :crackup:

Looks like a desiccant pack with the non woven on one side and tray on the other. Is it filled with granules/beads?

S.B.D.?

Greatly appreciate that Mabett designs products that fill in the gaps left behind by Ford's design team with feedback from the forum. Products I have; Hood Water Barriers, still need to install, just been busy lately Rear Wheel Splash Shield covers, still need to install, just been busy lately...

I've had my brightness alternate when it is not full sunlight outside and I'm passing under the shade of trees or shadow of a mountain. But in normal sunny conditions, it's stable. If it flickers under full sun conditions, sounds like it could be an electrical connection issue. Just make sure...

Didn't see it mentioned as a possibility when troubleshooting... Make sure the headlight switch is turned to 'Auto', or 'Off' during the day.

In addition, from the owner's manual... Items impacted by severe service: Every 48,000 km (30,000 mi) Change the automatic transmission fluid. Every 96,000 km (60,000 mi) Replace the spark plugs. Axle and PTU Maintenance The Power Transfer Unit (PTU) and rear axle (AWD only) in your...
