I have an 08 base model. Nothing fancy for a work truck. The one thing I like best is I can start truck and then put the key back in my pocket. I am constantly losing my keys. This is a huge help. And during the summer I can leave my best bud in the a/c and not worry, just lock the doors and put key in pocket. Frigging awesome

I installed a Viair system. The tank sits perpendicularly between the frame rails above/forward of the spare tire. My twin compressor pumps are mounted above the spare tire. Relays are connected to upfitter switch #1 and air hose quick connect drilled through the bumper. I have up to 200 psi anywhere I need it...

I made mine from a cheapo tire inflation tank. I ran a metal line with an inline pressure valve straight from the manifold from my Brand new all rebuilt 1988... Valve bleeds off the pressure automatically when activated for air pressure... Works like a charm and something ya can't do with this new garbage is hook in true compressed air for 150psi. I was apprehensive but a local Diesel shop the kit for 445 bucks and it works. I mounted my tank inside the cap I got for the truck above the bed space up front behind my head area. I have a metal screen too which works really nice when the windows are open between the cab and cap. Keeps bugs & stuff from going into the bed area. I actually literally found the thing at the scrap yard in clean like new cond. It fit perfect over the slider window with a little work. I used rivets and body panel glue. Fits perfectly.

I realize this vid is 2 years old but, One featufe i Added to my 18 Platnum is the TPS monitering and camera for the trailer/rv. There is a special kit you get from Ford to add TPMS and a camera. It consists of a special 7pin/6pin outlet that replaces the 7pin/4pin outlet, a wiring harness that is longenough for the biggest RV, 4 TPMS sensors and a camera. The TPMS go in the tires just like on the tow vehicle and the camera goes where ever you want it. It intigrates the TPMS anf camera int the truck's display. Works perfect. Kinda expensive, I think I paid $400 something in Canada and did the install myself except the tire shop put in the sensors..

Traction control prevents the tires from slipping at all. Turning it off lets you spin the tires but the AdvanceTrack still limits the tires from spinning like hell if you need it. Turn the AdvanceTrack off if you’re in deep snow or mud and then the tires will spin at full rpm’s to get you out of the real sticky situations (or to whip some donuts in the mud or snow). 💪🏻👍

On the upfitter switches you can run 5 and 6 hot all the time without key on by moving the fuse over in the box from the default position , You might want to do this if you need power for lights etc all the time. Now you can buy a wire harness that will give you all 6 switches hot all the time from limitless. I have a 2018 XLT dually and my rear cameras are great, I don't have front or side cameras but I don't need them to tow my 45' toy hauler.

When I drop my tailgate on my '16 F150, I have extra lights inside the box of the truck, and a switch on the drivers side to turn them on or off. One thing you didn't mention, is that there is 'quite' a bit of room, behind the rear seat. It's a little tricky to open, but on Amazon there are many companies selling a device to allow the back of the seat to fold forward, so you can access all the room back there! Some trucks have a button (or can use their fob) to open the tailgate, but mine doesn't. I'll have to check the + on the Navigation system you showed here. There's also a place in the console to hide your fob if the battery in the fob dies, where even with the dead battery it sends enough signal so you can start the engine of the truck! Mine has this option, and the one...well two options I use the most, the sound system (love my music) and of course Navigation, helping me to get from A to B in area's I'm unfamiliar.

@fordmud Жыл бұрын
Well traction is dumbed down a little, you have to hold it until advance track disables if you really want traction control off. I hit the button in the rain for my f150, instead of traction control coming on hard, cutting power and not allowing a shift, if just you push the button once it allows the transmission to shift just before traction control takes over, basically it spins half a rotation, shifts, and bogs just enough continue going forward without spinning. As long as you're not hard on the pedal.

Double tap the traction control button and it activates sport mode deactivating both skid and traction control.

Some people don’t know that most super duty trucks have a locking rear diff if you pull out on the 4x4 shift dial.

I had all 5 replaced free due to recall saving me thousands if done myself not to mention enhanced safety.. I can see without the foggy view now. All cameras were defective …camera coating melted by UV as described in recall! Good luck I couldn’t stand it anymore showed dealer recall code and they replaced every single camera!

Anybody else have issues with Apple Play being flaky? 2/10 times, it either fails to connect unless I shutdown the truck and phone and restart both or it connects, but the Ford display screen won't display the split screen to show map and music apps.

I have a 2018 Ford F-150 XLT and my rear camera was so horrible, I couldn't see anything thru it as of Aug 2023. Went to Ford Parts department and for $94.66 I replaced my rear tailgate camera my self in less than 20 minutes and it's as good as new. Ford definitely had issues with that era of cameras.

I tow a big trailer. And I’ve needed to put it in 4 more than once to get unstuck on several occasions. Dirt roads, snow, ice. You might think you just stay on nice roads in the sun, but if you RV, the roads will not always be perfect.
