somebody may have already posted this but I'll write it since I just discovered this-
Lariat owners: people who have the digital cluster (digital fuel tank, engine temp etc) you can swap out the trans temp gauge for the turbo gauge by simply pulling up either one on your 8in screen , hit ok and it will swap them. Kinda cool

This works for the 3.5L EB engine only.

Which is why I want a vacuum gage, the EB gets a pressure gage so why can't I have a vacuum gage?

My bad. I thought the digital gauges were only on the 502A and above and the 2.7 isn't available with the 502A and above.

Got tired of chasing our wastebasket around the back of the truck. Was bad enough in our '11 Scab, much worse in the '15 Screw! So I took a (free) shopping bag, a couple lengths of leftover 1/2" PVC pipe, and a piece of clothesline rope and made this. The pipe anchors it in the seatback pockets, yet it can be removed and moved out of the way in a few seconds. Simple, inelegant, but it works. Thought it might be useful to someone with same-same here.

What models is this feature on?
The hidden key fob holder that is.
