Help my feet are getting cold!!
2008 F-150 STX: Anybody had this problem. I have very little air blowing out on the floor of the drivers side and more blowing out of the passenger side. Also I noticed some white grease about a month ago on the drivers side floor mat I thought I carried in on my shoe. But today I looked up under the dash to see why drivers side isn't blowing and the same white grease is running down the side of the heating unit.

Well, I don't have the white grease *knock on wood*, but I have noticed that I don't get very much heat onto my feet, but the passenger's side seems to get lots of heat. I'm going to have to investigate a bit more, as it's rather annoying. Anyone else have this problem, maybe other model years?
Pipes - What cab do you have? I have a regular cab, and sometimes it feels like cold air is hitting the backs of my legs/feet.

I'm having the dealer look into it next Wednesday. This is my first F150 and I realy like it 
. That's the only problem I have with it. I used to be all Jeeps.

Finally got it the dealership to get it checked. It seems it is normal. I even compared mine with some of the same 08's on the lot and they all did the same thing. I decided to investigate for myself. I found that the plastic trim panel that goes around the heater on the floor has a 3 slot luver cut into it and covers the opening on the drivers side and stops before it hits the opening on the passenger side. So I took a utility knife and cut out an opening to match the passenger side and now get even heat. My feet actually get hot now. Don't know why they did it that way but it's all good now!!
