    Battery issues & Looking for advice before 1PM Mountain Time

    Nothing too helpful to add but when you say 30 miles a day 3/4 highway it leads me to believe that’s to a from work? So I’d imagine under 15-20 minutes of run time each way? It’s not the mileage but the run time that will provide the proper charge. I don’t think 15 minute drives will help keep...

    Software Updates

    Might be that you actually have a low SOC. Charge the battery or go drive it for awhile. Pretty sure you’ll need to drive for more than 30 minutes continuously to make any real impact on charging the battery. The auto updates will use battery power and might have drained your battery. The low...

    Tailgate Removal

    Might be too late but keep the key fob far from the truck so it isn’t able to communicate with each other while you have the tailgate unplugged. Rear cameras or sensors will need to be recalibrated by dealer otherwise.

    Electrical battery issue or what?

    Yes, there are specific chargers for AGM (as well as lithium, acid,etc). I have a Noco Genius 10, it has settings for most types of batteries as well as 12v and 6v. I do the 1x a month maintenance charge and then will also charge it if I’ve been leaving the doors open while working on /...

    Electrical battery issue or what?

    That’s the cause right there. Short trips like that will not recharge the battery and are not enough to offset the draw. I have the same issue. Grab a battery tender and give it a full charge 1x a month.

    Recurring Suspension Squeak

    Add me to the squeaky club. Been a couple of months like this, not too optimistic about the dealership doing anything to take it in for just that. I too have been holding out for a gen3 specific race series shock from Fox but there hasn’t even been rumors of that being released anytime soon...

    Battery issue, Charging issue or BMS issue?

    I was getting constant deep sleep mode due to low battery charge level. Battery would get down to 11.8v regularly even after charging. Took it to local dealer and they tested the battery and found it to be ok. Problem is they tested voltage right after driving it. Most will tell you a battery...

    CA registering out of state new vehicle

    Same experience as everyone here, but they didn’t even look at the weight certificate. My dealer submitted paperwork to Ca DMV, I believe they fill out weight on the form. Got a letter a month or so after from DMV to come in and complete registration (smog and pay taxes/fees). If dealer submits...

    Help with 2022 Ford Raptor

    I’m sure others will jump in but the earlier models actually had more features. Prices went up each year but also lost features. Go figure…

    Eibach 1” front w/ 1.5” rears

    I’ve been skimming the posts and haven’t seen much in this. Ideally I’d want to do race series upgrades but nothing available yet. Has anyone done the eibach 1” fronts with the 1.5” rears? Pictures? Trying to get some lift but not negatively affect ride too much. Also looking to keep the...

    Fox Factory Race Series

    Anyone have any intel on race series shocks being released specifically for the gen3? I know covid and economy probably play a role in this, but 3-4years in and still nothing? Or are they not able to get any appreciable gains over stock? I know it’s not just Fox, last I saw Icon was getting...

    Any mountain bikers? Post your travel setup

    Ya I looked at the pivot but wanted to keep the rack as close to the tailgate as possible when not in use. So far so good, although I did really like the just overall.

    Any mountain bikers? Post your travel setup

    I use my 1up rack daily and it actually never comes off the truck. Great rack. It’s nice loading the e-bikes and not having to awkwardly lift them over the tailgate using a mat. Best part is that it folds down so you can open the tailgate. I had a Kuat before and it wouldn’t clear the...

    Octane Poll

    Truly asking because I’m not very knowledgeable on this. Why are the HP numbers higher with a E85 tune? Also, I’m pretty sure I’ve seen @GooseTuned mention it’s safe to add a couple (?) gallons of E85 to a regular tank for some added performance (without needing to tune for it).

    37PP Overlanding Build Thread

    When you say SAT coverage are you talking about the trucks stock navigation system? If so, your not out of SAT (GPS) range, the trucks system just isn’t meant for that. Get yourself a Garmin inreach to use as a GPS beacon and download a mapping app like Gaia to your tablet. Simple setup like...
