    Weight Distribution Hitch needed?

    I would if I were you. A good weight distribution hitch makes a world of difference for the IRS and squat that comes with it. You were asking about a brake controller on another thread. That one is mandatory for control/safety with any trailer with brakes that can be controlled by it... FWIW...

    Weight distributing hitch clearance

    I got a blue ox sway pro "included" when I bought mine. RV show special, etc. Great WD hitch... The TT you're borrowing should probably have a WD set up on it already, no? Might be able to adjust the receiver to fit your rig when you borrow it. I highly recommend renting a couple different TT's...

    Buying a used rental

    I've rented 3 Expeditions since owning mine. I believe they are durable vehicles, but, I would never buy one that was a rental car for my own daily driver... All of the "things" that I've wanted to try/test in my own vehicle that could result in issues immediately/later I did in those...

    Impact of Heavy Duty Tow Package (w/ 3.73 axle ratio) on MPG gas mileage

    Towing the camper I get ~9 to 9.5 usually max of 70mph or below, of course depending on terrain/wind conditions. If the trip is predominantly uphill/into wind, closer to 9. If the trip is more downhill/with the wind, closer to 9.5. About what I expected. Tows like a champ and if I was...

    Tire Pressure? * Michelin LTX Defender M/S (22" Rims)*

    Plush ride with 22s and no ccd isn't really a thing from my understanding for the exact reasons you stated. With that said, I'd just go with the lowest pressure that doesn't have your warning light come on.

    Downsizing from 22" wheels... 20" or 18" w/ CCD suspension

    Agree with this sentiment. MD hasn't said that liquor/beer, firearms /ammunition and pharmacy are essential? You NEED those 20" rims man, essential!

    Downsizing from 22" wheels... 20" or 18" w/ CCD suspension

    One was a 4x2 Max in NC, One was a 4x4 Std in Canada, and one was a 4x4 Max in NE, all from National. Ya know, it may very well be that the rental units didn't have CCD... I just looked at the Ford website to educate myself and I see Limited does not equal CCD - thought it did - my bad. Does...

    Downsizing from 22" wheels... 20" or 18" w/ CCD suspension

    Limited trim rentals I've had come with 20" wheels and ccd. I've had three so far, one 2020 had 7 miles on it! There is a little bit of a ride softness difference with the extra sidewall on the 20" tires. Haven't driven one with 18s yet, but, I'd imagine it'd be even softer. Should be fine...

    Remote window operation

    And I continue to learn, thankfully not the hard way this time... [emoji23] So, in advanced vehicle settings with remote open and remote close checked/enabled for windows, if you are carrying a pair of pants with your keys in one of the pockets and are pushing the unlock button continuously...

    All-Weather Floor Mat Options

    Happy with Weathertech they are a good company. I sent back everything and got a full refund after about 10 months of use. I'll buy their vent shades when/if they come out with them for the new expeditions. Picked up a full set of the Husky X-act and the Weatherbeater cargo liner, fit is better...

    Sunroof Glass Replacement (Glass Cracked)

    Some insurance, like mine, waive deductible for glass repair or charge a flat fee regardless of what glass broke. Some point you to cheaper shops or mobile ones, depending on break/preference. YMMV, but worth a call to insurance to check damage waiver.

    Center console vault

    https://www.americantrucks.com/e-g-center-console-lock-vault-1517.html That seems to be the best one I've found that still leaves space for other stuff and I think you can still use the existing tray. Just wish (also like you) it was half height and had a 4, ideally a 5 digit combo option as...

    Northgate guys were fair/good to me. Cool to see the Roush stuff they had in stock after the drive from Philly, too. Where are you from @Dice Roll? I thought for sure it was GA after you posted that sticker...

    Update all versions of Ford Sync 3 to the latest Sync 3.4

    Oddly, this stopped happening a couple days ago. I didn't do anything that I'm aware of and had the Android Auto auto update since the 14th. I did uninstall/reinstall FordPass because I lost the vehicle location in it and that usually sorts that issue out, but didn't think that would be...

    Center console vault

    I was too and I didn't come across that one when I was looking. Nice option. The ford one looks like it renders the console useless if you want to use space above it and also have access. I like this one you've found... It's what I'd go with now that I know it'd fit, so, thanks everyone for the...

    This forum is talking me out of buying

    Alright GA! Same as mine but 4X2; ~4 months newer build date with fancy white tricoat (pinky up buttercup) instead of work truck oxford white - that tricoat is apparently a bitch to match/blend if you dent/bend anything. Still looks sharp even when filthy dirty so a very nice choice man! Good...
