    2018 SCAB Towing issues. Need help! Clicky here!

    I wouldn't worry too much about towing a boat near the limit even if you keep everything stock. Boats are closer to 5% tongue weight compared to 10-15% for travel trailers and generally less affected by crosswinds. SCAB wheelbase is fine for a 24' boat. If you really want to upgrade...

    Guidance with Ford Corporate, bad transmission?

    Depending on how you use your truck, asking for an extension of the factory warranty to go with your rebuild could be a good option. If you're going places that tow trucks can't get, you're probably better off insisting on a new unit.

    Aftermarket blow off valves

    For the record, I think your truck sounds fine except for the BOV. Not sure why anyone would want to make a pressure release valve louder.

    Aftermarket blow off valves

    Eh, I thought it was funny. Don't post videos about having the "fastest raptor in Canada" if you don't want people to talk shit

    Deaver +2 & SVC Bumpstop Kit

    I doubt it's come up yet, but anyone have experience with Deavers voiding the warranty on other rear suspension components? I got the factory extended maintenance plan specifically to cover the shocks.

    Most weight you've ever hauled in your bed?

    You're fine - rear suspension sees way more dynamic load in action, worst case scenario you compressed to the factory bump and it sat on the frame for a bit

    New Owner with voltage concerns

    The battery doesn't drain at idle under normal operating conditions...that would be a very poorly designed system. The battery drains over time due to the small but constant current draw while in "sleep" mode and the normal self discharge of SLA batteries.

    New Owner with voltage concerns

    That's some nice reference material right there! Above poster is correct that current gen f-150s use variable alternator output voltage - can be anywhere from 12.7 to 14.4V depending on battery state of charge. One thing to point out from the last paragraph, F150s with auto start stop use...

    Baja Mode

    They discuss it prior to the short course and then have you stomp the brake in the box to see how it affects stopping distance. According to the instructors off-road modes reduces ABS intervention to increase lockup and Baja mode adjusts front/rear braking bias depending on speed. Haven't seen...

    Baja Mode

    I'm not talking about accelerating onto highways. Go fast off-road and use the paddles to make frequent 2-3; 3-4; 4-3-2 shifts and I think you'll see what I'm talking about - sometime the transmission reacts immediately, other times not so much. The lack of consistency is a huge nuisance...

    Baja Mode

    I agree, with the caveat that sometimes it takes too long to process the shift and you end up bouncing off the rev limiter a bit.

    Collision alert activation

    It's not obvious. Here's some background...you can always test it to find out :) http://www.fordraptorforum.com/f260/2018-adaptive-cruise-stop-go-retrofit-into-2017-yet-58462/

    Collision alert activation

    Collision alert activation

    Yes, compared to the factors I mentioned above it's negligible. That's why radar corner reflectors are generally unpainted...it's unnecessary as long as the base substrate is metal.
