  1. 98k and cracked gasket, told I need new engine

    Yeah fair enough, but if you are driving like a complete yobbo and are not maintaining the vehicle and are being negligent you are going to break something. I will be the first to agree with you that there are issues especially with the 10r80 however the 2.3? IDK man, op has shown a pattern of...
  2. Storage behind rear seat backrest

    You could potentially hang some like pouches or molle type stuff down from the headrests but as you said there isn't much, for me its just enough space to keep a rifle but not much else. Honestly since the only useable space is at the bottom where the funnel usually is on the ground loose...
  3. Maps for off-road

    Look into Gaia GPS, it is free and works with no cell service as well
  4. My research into the 10R80 shift strategy

    You have a hardware issue not a software one.
  5. Aftermarket exhaust that's just as quiet as stock?

    ??? facts lol. But if he wants meaningful help hes gonna need to not be lazy and give meaningful data we can interpret. Otherwise my answer will be your mpg is bad because of deez
  6. Aftermarket exhaust that's just as quiet as stock?

    What speed do you drive at on the highway? How much weight is in the truck? What tire pressure? Do you lock out any gears? Where do the revs sit when you are highway driving? In the trucks manual it even talks about how at highway speeds going even marginally faster will use significantly more...
  7. The Dreaded Water in Spark Plugs (TSB 21-2147)

    Yeah that is complete bullshit, you definitely need to talk with ford, I would also insist on getting some facetime with the service manager as well because I don't see any reason it wouldn't be covered. Did they give you a reason? Or did they just say oh they didn't cover it? My first question...
  8. My research into the 10R80 shift strategy

    I mean now that mine is fixed it performs brilliantly, super smooth and ergonomic, it was brilliant before it broke too, its just the breaking part that isn't ideal
  9. My research into the 10R80 shift strategy

    Yeah it was a transmission and clutch from the 40's so it was incredibly temperamental and difficult, I learned up in the mountains of north Georgia so I had to deal with some grades but not too much surprisingly. The biggest thing was when I was driving on some trails and I ended up stalling it...
  10. My research into the 10R80 shift strategy

    No worries and yeah that is definitely a lost art, just about every modern manual (what few there are left) rev matches automatically, have hill start assists etc. I am only 24 but I learned how to drive a manual at 14 and boy was that an experience, i was on a ww2 willys jeep and that thing was...
  11. My research into the 10R80 shift strategy

    Very true, our trucks do too, I have a video here that proves it. Ford dealers and even other owners have gaslit us into thinking that rough shifts and not downshifting and chirping the tires is just the truck being quirky and is normal. It isn't, after being fixed mine shifts very cleanly, rev...
  12. 2022 transmission needs "overhaul" - just left the dealer.

    Trans should be included in the powertrain yeah
  13. 98k and cracked gasket, told I need new engine

    I wish you the best of luck but that is going to be a huge undertaking. I hope you succeed and it isn't too expensive or difficult/problematic cause that would be awesome.
  14. My research into the 10R80 shift strategy

    The relearn isn't going to fix anything you have a hardware issue. The seal on your cdf drum went and the valve body got clogged up and the solenoids are sticking. You need to insist they go through the whole tsb including checking the cdf and its sub components. Mine did the same stuff and it...
  15. NHTSA investigating FORD engine issue

    I hope you know I wasn't calling you an idiot lmao but all that aside I wouldn't dare try to take her job lol
  16. NHTSA investigating FORD engine issue

    Didnt realize it was sarcasm ngl, there are some, umm delusional people on here so I air on the side of everyones an idiot lol
  17. My research into the 10R80 shift strategy

    Needs to check the cdf drum itself there will be damaged components in there
  18. NHTSA investigating FORD engine issue

    To that? They won’t, totally different and the 2.3 didn’t have those issues
  19. My research into the 10R80 shift strategy

    You need transmission service beyond just the reflash see the video I posted it absolutely rev matches and doesn’t chirp? You’ve got something wrong in yours, as does the downshifting in d guy
  20. My research into the 10R80 shift strategy

    So what exactly do you call this? It’s more subtle in auto ofc but it is definitely rev matching… also I had a longer version with all the gears but it was too big a file. All I’m doing is hitting the brakes and downshifting in sport with the button
