Ditto, did remote access myself.

Thank you for reaching out, Impulse81. I'm glad you finally received the sweet treats you deserved. Let's keep record of your delightful experience. Please PM me your VIN, full name, and daytime phone number; I'll document your feedback.

Works like a charm. I wanted the remote access so I can use my phone and start the truck from where typical 2 ways don't.... plus not have more remotes and fobs. Sure it could have more doo dad's but I don't honestly care. It starts the truck... it's stops it and locks and unlocks. The only thing I agree is GPS tracking so if the truck was say stolen. That said for $50 a year to cover it... i wont complain.

All over the place. Northstar Ford in Fort Mac has around 25 6.2 powered trucks all the way down to XLT ' S sitting on the lot. Prince George Ford has a bunch of them too. Northstar in Calgary has a few. The rest are only one or two per lot. Actually Kentwood lists a bunch in Edmonton as does City Ford. 8k off sticker is a joke... i can get that with no incentives lol. Can't be afraid to tell these clowns to go to hell and walk away. I did it on 3 6.2 powered trucks this year lol. The third one was easiest as it was a repeat salesman and he knew what to expect lol.

We haven't stocked a 6.2 F-150 at Universal in over a year. Factory order only. Not a single person has asked about them within that time. Shame, it's a really nice engine.

MGM Ford Lincoln has a grey FX4 with a 6.2. Saw it when truck shopping with my friend. Nice truck too.

My best joke dealer to date was Heartland Ford. The sales guy actually got angry at me because I asked him for invoice price on the same truck I lined up for my mom. His response was something to the effect invoice was what the Ford family pricing was for.... funny... i can get close to invoice at any time... no incentives required. He was way out to lunch on his price and his words were something to the effect "if you think you can get a 6.2 cheaper you don't have a clue". Stand up guy... bought the same truck the same damn day for about 5 grand less than he wanted for it. Good on you bud... good on you.

Here in the rundown of my appoint from earlier today.

They found some interesting things with my truck. The fans aren't kicking in until 101 degrees- 10 degrees hotter than they're supposed to start at.

If the A/C is on the fans will work as they're supposed to, kicking in and out at the right times.

When they had the computer hooked up they could not find any codes, nothing found on a couple system scans, and the weirdest thing was the fans would NOT kick in when prompted by the computer.

He said they've never seen anything like it before. It could be the PCM. Hopefully that's the case as it would be covered under the power train warranty. I'm just a lowly Forestry employee- I'm not sure I could afford to have it fixed if it isn't under warranty. I'd have to drive around with A/C on all the time.

If not get me a stock pcm for a 5.0 and I can load the stock tune for you.. or get one from a wrecker lol. The pcm just energizes outputs( or more likely completes the circuit by grounding said output) to relays to start and stop the fans. The fact the relay grenaded and 2 fuses troubles me. It's like it's encountering a dead short somewhere. I should just hook up with hp tuners to your truck and see what it does. A person could check the circuit feeding the relay to see of the pcm is truly not responding or its something else.
