    Trailer Hitch Cover Removal - What's the secret?

    I ordered a cheap kit of plastic trim removal tools from Amazon. They have come in handy many times when I need to "gently pry" without marring surfaces. Mine is gone from amazon, but something like this: Pry bar kit

    2023 Stealth Performance - Raptor Engine (Cover)

    I have a 2023 Limited SPP and can confirm the "RAPTOR" cover in this thread fits perfectly. The engine already has the rear hinge point and the mounting studs in place. The cover snapped right on after I aligned the studs to the holes. I bet they planned to ship this (or similar) cover on the...

    Truck lost my settings. Is this common?

    I don't know how to check if an update happened. I "checked for updates" and it said there are none. I don't see any big changes (like volume knob adjusting temperatures, etc). It looks like a few items got toggled. * Alarm - Ask on exit (perimeter or motion) * Lane keeping turned back on *...

    Truck lost my settings. Is this common?

    I will check. Not "the big one" because the volume knob still only does volume. I would HOPE that smaller updates would not wipe out settings but who knows.

    Truck lost my settings. Is this common?

    (2023 Limited SPP with large screen) So this morning I got in to my truck and it seemed to have lost some (but not all) of my settings. Stuff like * Collision avoidance * Alarm, ask when exiting * My screens on the main dash. Has this happened to anyone else? Did I somehow cause this? Or...

    2023 Stealth Performance - Raptor Engine (Cover)

    Wow, parts.ford.com is comically terrible. I tried to order the Raptor engine cover and gave up. I searched by part number and it sent me to the part but * No picture * Parts number on the page was only partial "6A949" I gave up and ordered it from a dealer online. Even with shipping it was...

    Trailer assist sticker on a trailer with a tubular tongue and frame

    I fabricated a 2x5 plastic plate to mount the sticker flat and horizontal. Works like a charm.

    Trailer assist sticker on a trailer with a tubular tongue and frame

    Uh oh. My little camper is pretty short too. From hitch coupler to taillight my camper is 140" (11.6 feet). How long is your Kendon? You are right, short trailer are way harder! And mine is also short so I can't really see it out the back window.

    Trailer assist sticker on a trailer with a tubular tongue and frame

    I'd like to set up trailer assist on my new 2023 SPP. My concern is that my trailer has a tubular tongue with no flat surface on top. (see picture). Is there any chance the ford sticker will work if placed directly on the tube? Or would I simply be wasting a sticker? For scale, the coupler is...

    High Belt Line on 4th gens!

    This is really frustrating because this could be done with just software, no additional HW expense per vehicle.

    High Belt Line on 4th gens!

    My Gen3 Limited had the rear side windows that opened outward to vent. (The way back side windows). That is the GREATEST venting feature ever. You can vent the rear while carrying stinky cargo (fertilizer, fuel, garbage, etc). You can open the rear passenger windows without loud drumming. I...

    Trailer Hitch Cover Removal - What's the secret?

    Wow, the 4th gen trailer hitch is significantly higher than the previous gen. I am going to need a draw bar with at least an 8 inch drop.

    Trailer Hitch Cover Removal - What's the secret?

    This helped a lot! I have plastic trim removal tools with nice soft edges. I used one in the seam while pulling the handle and it popped right off. Thanks.

    Trailer Hitch Cover Removal - What's the secret?

    I have a brand new Limited SPP. Today for the first time I tried to remove the trailer hitch cover. I couldn't get it to move! I read the manual. I pulled upward and outward from the bottom of the cover. There is a finger grip recess so I know I was in the right place. I pulled REALLY hard...

    Interesting idea. I usually do stand close to the hatch to open it. (old habit). I'll try it.

    Problem opening rear hatch with handle button

    I am having a weird problem with my 2023. If I open the rear hatch from the dash, it's fine. If I open it from the remote, it's fine. If I open it by pressing the button in the handle sometimes (75%) it open about 10 inches and stops. Another press of the button and it goes all the way up...

    High Belt Line on 4th gens!

    I recently took deliv4ery of my 2023 Expy SPP. I am really struck by how high the belt line is. I am 6'2" and I feel short around this truck. Trying to get to the dipstick or reach in through the rear lift glass I keep wondering how to "normal" height people do it. Anyone else feeling this...
