  1. 6,800 lbs with Surge Brakes?

    You're fine as long as long as you don't exceed max tongue weight of 750lbs. 10% is at 680lbs so you are getting close if that trailer isn't loaded properly. Exceed the 750lbs and steering can start to get questionable without a weight distribution hitch
  2. Livernois Tuning released

    Extremely Happy! Installed the 93 octane tune at 10k miles, now at 45k. Only complaint is if I don't let it run for 1 to 2 min cold it stutters sometimes. No big deal as I never just start and run anyway. Picked up 3 mpg highway - 27 if I keep my foot out of it and has eaten every hemi that...
  3. Renewed SiriusXM today....

    I said commercials but meant all the talking between songs. Almost same thing and as bad.
  4. Renewed SiriusXM today....

    Ok... maybe not commercials but constant talking between songs... shut up already
  5. Renewed SiriusXM today....

    At least Pandora audio quality is good! Commercials yes on the free version but I only pay 3.99 a month for no commercials and HQ audio. Much better deal than XM and sounds better, can skip songs or create my own "stations".
  6. Renewed SiriusXM today....

    Except the audio quality SUCKS (way to compressed) and commercials... Who pays to hear commercials ? I turn it on when it's free for a couple weeks each year to remind myself NEVER PAY FOR THIS CRAP!
  7. Dispelling dealership lies.

    Another point is trailer brake lights are in no way linked to the actual trailer brakes which have a circuit all by themselves. Using a standard controller hooked to the 3rd brake light should activate trailer brakes if the 3rd light comes on, but it will NOT turn on the trailer brake lights if...
  8. Dispelling dealership lies.

    I'm not questioning your ability to tow or drive. I too have towed trailers with the hydraulic and regular controllers. The auto brake systems when activated are so quick that you are still just thinking about applying the brakes and the truck will be up on its heals. Like I mentioned, just...
  9. Dispelling dealership lies.

    Have you ever had the EB system activate? It can be pretty aggressive and will certainly WAKE you up! even with NO trailer. No way do I want to be towing anything over say 1000lb and have that system activate with no trailer brakes. I don't care how good of driver you are the odds will be...
  10. What it must be like..

    It's not just the mid sized trucks either. I had a Durrango R/T 5.7 try to run me off a light the other day. Had him till 70 then he made a whole bunch of noise and pulled away real fast. At the next light he told me he had to actually use his nitrous.. WTF?
  11. Tow Hitch Receiver Question

    So after being rear ended and having my bumper dented I found out the factory receiver is the bumper mount as well. My mounts were bent and had to be replaced. Ford part # KE3Z-17D826-F Bar Asy - Towing at $729.47 Very fancy looking, wraps around the frame. Luckily I had no sheet metal...
  12. Replacement speakers

    If not using a external amp just change line 2 - The first one sets line level output
  13. Replacement speakers

    Pioneer TS-A652C - in front doors - Love Them! But you are also going to want to disable all the Ford DSP using Forscan or you won't notice much change in anything you do to the audio system.
  14. Scary towing experience

    Sound like not enough tongue weight and/or tongue to high
  15. Multiple Electrical Issues

    Lemon law isn't out of the question. Ford told me the only part of the lemon law I don't qualify for is the dealer needs to have it in shop for 30 days or more for full refund. That hasn't happened yet but seems to me that it could be a negotiable issue. Problem started with 23k and now has...
  16. Multiple Electrical Issues

    Since March I have been dealing with Parking sensor faults where the system just notifies me of a malfunction and turns itself off. I have taken it to the dealer (now for the 5th time) for this problem. They have replaced sensors, installed some wiring kit from "Pin 2 at connector c1428 to pin...
  17. FORScan Modifications

    Has anyone tried enabling the "Turbo Boost Gauge" option in the IPC module?
  18. FORScan Modifications

    Auto up/down window feature is done with just holding the window button. I forget the exact way to enable or disable but you either hold the button down or up for a certain amount of time. It is in the manual and has nothing to do with forscan. I accidently disabled mine and it drove me nuts...
  19. FORScan Modifications

    Not sure why you wouldn't see it in ForScan??
