Actually, I've had the same problem a couple of times...I wired a set of back-up lights to #5 and have my dashcam on #6. #6 stays on all the time, but I've noticed that #5 seems to have turned itself on at times. I'm sure at some point I pissed off traffic behind me at night with the Rigid BU...
Yep, it does display at an angle on the window. Maybe ford was thinking it would be more obvious/"attention getting" to the eye if it didn't lineup with the plane of the dash, hood, horizon, etc.
Don't include me in your f*cking list. My problem in the first couple of hundred miles was simply bad fuel from the dealer and I clearly updated my post to reflect that.
I am in complete agreement with Smurfslayer...your obsession with all this is crossing the border into psychosis. Is...
The truck looks great, but even it pales in comparison to your plane. I did a bit of reading about the "Sexy Sue" online - what a fantastic aircraft! Congratulations on both!
Mounts under the driver's side. There should be instructions in the box with the module, but it is pretty simple. Most difficult part is getting it zip tied in. I ended up using one zip tie and some double sided tape to hold it in position. If you've already received it and didn't have...
Congratulations on the new truck! Based on where you are parked it looks like I could see it in person the next time my wife drags me on one of her pilgramages to the Silos.
Congratulations on the new truck... looks great!
On a side note, if the posts in this tread do not get that prick Sasquatch banned, then I'm done with this site. I understand this is a pretty wide open forum, but for that idiot to piss on a new member like that is pretty much the end of the...
All six switches operate the same - the positive leads terminate in the engine bay and are hot only in the on position with the ignition on. There is a set of pass through wires that runs from the engine bay to the interior, but those are only hot if connected to the hot leads from the switches...
Mine had the same issue and I took it the dealer. Had the service manager ride along and he confirmed the surging. After they spent a day with it, they said their other raptor on the lot did the same thing so they believed it was normal...
Bottom line, after I started running 93 octane and...
For the in cab wires, check right at floor level under the passenger side fuse box. Everything I read said they were up by the glove box, but after digging around for more than two hours, I found mine right at the bottom beneath the fuse box.
...and the wires closest to the passenger fender...
As I was leaving the house this morning I was wondering why my front sensors haven't been working! I almost always back into parking spots, but in my garage, the front sensors never went off and I assumed it was a setting...now I know I just don't have them!! I've had 'em on all 4 of the Ford...
If you are on the fence about it, and if you've not owned a truck before (or not had much experience driving one) and your decision to keep it or not is going to come down to a few mile test drive, I would be surprised if you do take delivery. A supercrew is not a small vehicle and this one is...
I have no doubt the shit fuel that the dealer put in the truck was causing the engine to surge/lose power/misfire/whatever. Under acceleration and even at constant speed, the truck would lurch consistently...and I assume that the inconsistent power delivery, combined with a transmission still in...
Absolutely feel the difference. With the gas the dealer provided, my truck was surging and transmission acted like it was on crack...hard shifting, fell out of gear once, got hung in 6th once. After burning through the cheap gas, I put 93 octane in it and it feels like a different truck. I'm...
If you're in Texas, you can get 93 octane at Bucees. That's where I buy mine - after the first tank of cheap dealer gas caused my truck to run rough, I haven't used anything else and the truck runs great now.
You can see all the changes to the 2018 F150's here - Ford Trucks. From what I've read, the Raptor gets another color, will probably get a few updates inside the cab (like wifi hot spot) along with the other 2018's...and not much else.
Since everyone knows what a stock black supercrew looks like, I'll just post a quick one of mine with its feet in some beach sand. My 15 year old daughter had a great time driving it up and down the beach this last weekend and learned a valuable lesson on the importance of maintaining momentum...
Helfman Ford has been taking orders at msrp...don't know if they have any allocations left for 2017's.
Legacy Ford in Rosenberg advertises +$10k, but will immediately drop to +$5k and may go lower with some negotiating.
Like you, I read about a few transmission issues on this forum and got pretty concerned before I got my truck. In fact, I was hypersensitive to it once I got it and misinterpreted a combination of a misfiring engine (due to shitty fuel) and a transmission still in learning mode as a...
The Vehicle Order Confirmation (VOC) that you get when you place your order is not a Dealer Order Receipt Acknowledgement (DORA)...they look pretty much the same from what I've been told, but the VOC doesn't mean anything until corporate Ford issues the DORA. A DORA confirms that Ford has...
The allocation process is confusing on all sorts of levels and I'm certainly not an expert. I've heard several versions, but the one I was told by the dealer was that they were getting 3 confirmed allocations per month from Ford, and sometimes more if other dealers weren't using theirs. The...
I had a similar problem with getting a dora...when I placed my order, I was told that the dealer would have 3 allocations available at the beginning of the next month and I was #3. When the allocations were handed out at the beginning of that month, my order was pulled by Ford. At that point I...
I'm becoming convinced that it is a fuel issues like was suggested by some of the others. I'm still running the first tank of gas from the dealer. Once I fill it up with 93 octane (I'm going to run it down close to empty first so not dilute too much), it will hopefully smooth out.
As I...
Congrats - I'm glad they finally decided to come off the price for you. I tried in mid-March and they were sticking to the 10k. Sounds like you got the truck and deal you were looking for.
Found mine about 20 miles away for +3k for the config I wanted and got a better offer on my trade than...
