My 2020 just did this today for the first time after sitting for a week in my garage in Tucson where the garage gets over 100 degrees. I was thinking my battery might be getting ready to take a dump. I still have the original and 3 years in the desert is about all I have been able to get out of...

For what it’s worth I recently hit my right side mirror on the side of the garage which oddly did not break the glass but did break the tabs on the motor- dealer wanted 2k to replace the whole assembly. Ended up just buying and replacing the motor for $70. However once reassembled I was...

Made it look like puff the magic dragon

I was in NM last week knee deep in mud on elk hunt. Didn’t get stuck but it took everything she had! I would have liked to have a set for piece of mind ( if they can actually be used ). Maybe I need some MT’s?

Did you ever diagnose? I have 2020 with 27k on the clock that has recently started intermittent ticking on cold start up for a few mins.

Linex for two years in Tucson AZ sun and heat - several hunting and camping trips with no signs of deteriorating.

Update: 4weeks at the dealership. Tore down the trannie and couldn’t pinpoint the issue. Had the option of rebuild without knowing the exact problem or waiting until 2022 when Ford apparently was changing replacement policy. Decided to wait a few days and got a “new” transmission installed...

Update: left a message for service manager earlier today. The service rep I have been working with called back and said they had just found a rebuild kit and ready to schedule the repair. I am sure it was a coincidence…..

Thanks fellas- @FordTechOne should I take it up with the service manager or ford customer service?

Took my gen2 to the dealer 11wks ago with about 12k on the clock. Tranny felt like it was slipping between 4 and 5. Tech trouble shot and said there was definitely a problem with 4th gear but needed a rebuild kit before tearing into it. Dealership said they made a priority order for the kit...

Welcome to the forum and the truck is a beaut. Tons of great places in AZ to open her up! I really want to get up to cinders hills in flagstaff. It looks like a barrel of monkeys.

I can only get 91 octane in my area. Luckily I have a costco nearby.

Thanks all- I thought it was odd recommendation. Going full syn from here out.

Nice rig

I did oil change with full syn at 1k and installed fumoto then used Ford pass points for dealer change at 7500. The service rep gave me a hard sell that I shouldn’t use full syn until the engine is fully broke in which he suggested was over 15k. Anyone advice on the optimal time to start full syn?
