Sorry - I don't have any experience with those folks. I am fairly new to ATX (moved here 3 years ago) and this was my first new car purchase here.
Good luck!
Agreed!
It seems that Ford fails to realize that the dealer experience is often what the customer associates with the Ford product. A bad experience suddenly turns in to, "I'm never buying a Ford again!"
I believe this is especially true on more remote locations where there is only one Ford...
Yeah - I wouldn't recommend Maxwell to my worst enemy. Their practices border on criminal.
They "add value" by putting on after market components to every truck, like it or not, so that you can't get a stock vehicle. Then they tell you that you have to pay $1,400 extra for that luxury - but...
Well - my Ford Dealer has been working hard at solving my AC problem, I will give them that. They never denied or pushed back at its poor performance.
After running all the diagnostics on my truck, then running side-by-side diagnostics with a same truck but a model year newer, they don't have...
UDATE: Day 2 at the dealer and all diagnostics come back within spec, but the acknowledge that it is just not cooling as it should.
Tomorrow they are pulling an identical spec truck from the lot (likely a 2020 instead of a 2019) and are going to do a side-by-side spec comparison of the two...
I too struggle with keeping it cold here in central Texas. I finally took it to the dealer and they spent 4 hours working on it while I was there. They said I was a bit low on refrigerant so they topped it off and used dye to look for leaks. Finding none, they went through a range of...
Assuming you don't have the B&O system you can use the FOR-11CK No Cut Audio Harness.
You can tuck a small amp above the glovebox pretty easily.
You can check out my amp install HERE for reference and my small subwoofer install HERE.
Good luck with your install!

I built my own box for under the seat by using the original plastic bin insert, some sound deadening material, and a small sheet of particle board. I used an Alpine Alpine S-W8D4 and its perfect for the volume of the enclosure.
You can check out my build HERE.
You will get more bleed over the top of the cutoff line than the halogen bulbs. The good news is that you can adjust these bulbs to mitigate the effect. You want to make sure that the LEDs are pointing horizontally and not vertically to get the best results. All-in-all the light leakage is very...
Okay here are some photos of my install.
Low Beams: GTR CSP Mini ($99 on sale)
High Beams: BEAMTECH 9005 Fanless ($37.99)
Fog Lights: BEAMTECH H11 Fanless ($37.99)
For the photographs, I measured 25 feet from the fence and parked with my front bumper at the 25 foot mark to try and simulate...
FYI - I can confirm these fanless 9005 BEAMTECH bulbs high beams fit. I have already installed these GTR CSP Minis for the low beams. I don't have any pictures yet as I have hadn't had a chance to take some night time photos. I do have a lux meter, so I may try to take some measurements.

No adapter needed IF you are using line level inputs on your amplifier. If you are using an amp that doesn't have line level inputs, you would need a line level converter.
For my application, I used the harness and the speaker outputs from the factory unit to input into the line level of my...
Okay - all done! Installed the button in the overhead console and mounted the remote to the support below the steering wheel:
I spent a good deal of time tidying up the all my wires. Between the new garage remote module, auto mirror folding module, two dash cams, two amplifiers and a LTE...
Phil,
Great blast from the past! My father worked at the EEE facility for a good chunk of his career at Ford. I remember attending some of these open house type events, which were always cool for a young car kid.
I think one of my fondest memories was visiting my dad at the office when he...
Since I have to park my XLT in the driveway, I didn't want to leave my garage remote on the visor. It would be too easy for someone to break the window and snag the remote to the garage door and walk away with thousands of dollars worth of tools. After looking at the price for a HomeLink or...
Yup. That works too. Having a data only SIM assigned to the on-board hotspot lets me divvy up 22GB per person before throttling not to mention I don't have to worry about turning it on or off. It just works and cost me no more than 3 months of paying for the built in service. Not to mention...
