Ford reps on here
I see a lot of Ford reps on here trying to help people out with their problems. This is good. That means they are listening to us. So if that is the case we need these reps to tell the engineers for Ford they need to figure out why our A/C sucks. 96 degrees here yesterday and Tuesday and I'm sweating in my truck with the A/C full blast. This is sad. I'm not sure if I want another F150 when my lease is up. Dealer says everything is good with my truck.

It is great to see Ford Reps active on this board. With regards to the A/C I am in Florida and so far it has worked great keeping the interior cool. Is the problem only with certain models?

Unfortunately, I don't think they reps are going to pass along information like that to the design teams and engineers. That would be more alone the lines of a research study. I think the reps are mostly here to get warranty claims started. This is a great thing IMO. It's nice to see Ford having a presence in the online community.
Oh, and yes, our A/C blows! (pun NOT intended!) I think it's just too much volume to circulate cold air through (at least with the supercrews). I have noticed that when I am parked in my garage, my air is ice cold from the get-go.

set your ac to 65* instead of 60*- many of us found that it is in fact cooler at 65*

Was 96° here today. My AC froze me out within 5 minutes.
If you park in the sun, try rolling all four windows down when you first start the truck. Turn the AC to max and 4, and blow all the hot air out. Roll your windows up after a couple minutes.
When it's 90° outside, it's over 140° in your truck. At 95, it's over 150.
Get that excess heat out first. Then you'll find your AC cools your truck off much faster.

Better questions are:
1. Will a tune void my warranty?
2. Will a level or lift void my warranty on any items, and which ones?
3. Will 35s void my warranty on any parts and if so which ones?

If Ford wasn't so proud of their higher trim models I would buy one o those. They are ridiculous on the price. My XLT was 41k sticker. I think Ram gives you more for your money. You can get the heated seats and heated steering on the lower trim levels. You can get Nav too.
