    Alright, talk me into it…

    Just a minor correction to your statement ... Used vehicles are higher in value due to supply and demand (short supply, huge demand due to the lack of new vehicle inventories) and not inflation. You could argue the prices are "inflated", but it's not because of inflation. Inflation is the rate...

    Answer to why my truck is sitting in production limbo.

    It's not like the trucks are waiting for just a single microchip to be installed. The average F-150 has more than 100 microchips in it. And if you ordered a tech heavy model, the number really climbs and will undoubtably delay production of your truck. Trucks ordered with less options and...

    PMCS: Panoramic Sunroof

    Since you're not quoting actual statistical data we also know that if 200000 F Series pickups/SUVs have that sliding roof and 200000 fail that that is a whopping 100% fail rate. That's statistics 101. Quote actual statistics. Telling us how statistics work is meaningless. I know 1000 out of...

    PMCS: Panoramic Sunroof

    I agree and disagree with this post pertaining to the Raptor's pano sunroof. I have a 2019 Raptor and I am the only owner. I purchased it wanting the sunroof. I also have a 2018 Volvo XC60 hybrid T8 Inscription which also has a pano sunroof. The Volvo sunroof is by far a much better sunroof...

    Intelligent Access Door Handle Inop

    I can confirm that the failure of the passenger side Intelligent Access Door Handle is directly related to the state of charge of the battery - and NOT a FORSCAN issue. I had the issue of the Passenger Side Intelligent Door Handle fail to lock or unlock my 2019 Raptor yesterday (June 13th...

    Is there something wrong with my ASS?

    The Ford Manual also says this about connecting Accessories ... Electrical Accessory Installation To make sure the battery management system works correctly, do not connect an electrical device ground connection directly to the battery negative post. This can cause inaccurate measurements of...

    The green Auto-Start-Stop indicator light on the instrument cluster will illuminate to indicate when the automatic engine stop occurs.

    ForScan Lincoln Mirrors

    Try turning on the parking lights or headlights and then the mirror spots. I have a 2019 and did the Forscan Lincoln Mirror fold option and the mirror spots only work when I turn on the parking or head lights.

    Time for 1st oil change!!! Which oil and why!

    Keep in mind your Raptor has turbos that are lubricated with the engine oil. Turbos produce a lot of heat and can break down conventional oils easily. Full synthetic oils were developed for and initially used in jet engines because they retain their viscosity and friction protection in extreme...

    Is it too late?

    You're right and I never claimed you said it would hurt anything, you said: I completely disagreed with your statement above and was illustrating why. And as you pointed out that "it wasn't necessary on the 400K mile 2.7 Ecoboost on the f150forum that is still running strong", is it possible...

    Is it too late?

    You can use just the hole that is left when you remove the wire harness clip to secure the bracket, but I would highly recommend drilling the second hole to secure it more firmly. Drilling the second hole is not that difficult.

    Is it too late?

    They're not necessary. Just keep in mind the engineers were forced to feed that blow-by crap back in to the intake. They didn't do it because it's better for the engine. They did it because it's better for the environment and they had no choice. They also design the vehicles with catalytic...

    Is it too late?

    It's not un-burnt fuel that's being vented, it a build up of pressure in the crankcase from blow-by. During combustion, high pressure on the top side of the piston pushes combustion gasses, as well as droplets of oil and fuel, past the piston rings and into the crankcase. This mixture is known...
