I took my truck on its second annual trip down to the Oregon Coast Dunes. Had a blast. It towed like a dream this year. The AC also didn’t freeze up while towing moderately heavy through 100+ degree weather like it did last year.








Fully loaded in this pic. Air bags pumped up and ready to roll (after I remove the makeshift tarp from my fuel jugs, lol).

I'm picking up my truck this week at Granger and driving it home 1200 miles. So far I ordered a Leer cap which just came in last week, the Bedrug, Autostop Eliminator, and very shortly I'll be ordering the trans shield from Talons, tailgate American flag decal, and either the Weathertech or Ford mud/splash guards. And possibly a rear suspension air bag system for towing my camper.

You can do the 360 calibration with forscan. Click on the wrench and it should be in there. After that it walks you through what to do.

I haven't been able to really get at it yet. Drove it about 1,200 miles last weekend, then did a drive through car wash + sponge bath rinseless at home.

Even with just that...I'm reminded of the love/hate relationship of darker paints. I can't wait till I chem and mechanical decon it and seal/wax it.

I did get it tinted today. Llumar IRX 15% - Brow, two fronts, rear (over factory privacy) and then 50% second/third row over factory privacy

After two full weeks away from my truck, while overseas, I got behind the wheel as soon as I could and took him( wife says it's a him) out for a drive. Truck never went into a deep sleep mode.

my rental vehicle while in England was a ford torneo custom titanium. After 50k thing was pretty beat up. But it was fun to drive a manual. It was also a diesel and was around 300 miles from a no start due to lack of def fluid. Controls were similar to the F150. Sync 3 wasn't great. But it worked

That thing is sweet. Love the machined outer lip on the otherwise dark wheels. Tint looks great.

Just traded my 2017 for this 2023 with the ford performance package/badging. The 5.0v8 sounds so much better than the 3.5v6 I had before.

Ordered Scangage 3 using Amazon prime deals. It seems much simpler to set up than the 2 model, and more capable.

Initial goal is to measure temps during regular usage, then watch actual temps when towing.

Looks great! We love the customization!
