OK, thanks.

Just starting the install of my Ford branded Redarc controller and I've noticed in the Redarc threads that the adjustment knob unit seems to have a little light that acts as a position indicator for the knob. Mine doesn't have that. The cover plate has a hole for the light but there is...

Man!, this place is a wealth of info. Thanks. I do have the Ford branded Redarc controller, just haven't installed it yet. I've read the thread here, and looking at the supplied instructions, I'm pretty sure I can do the installation....Just wish I had a heated shop LOL

Thanks Big Blue, good advice. I'm finding there's a lot more to TT's than hooking 'em up and going!

Wow, thanks for the replies. All of them are pretty much in line with what I was thinking. Our second choice is the 1575, GVWR of 4600 and a tongue weight between 350-690 by my calculation.

My wife and I are starting to look at TT's and I have a question about tongue weight ratings. We're looking at the Lance 1685: Dry weight 4620 GVWR. 6300 Dry hitch. 540 My question is; does the tongue weight increase in a linear fashion as trailer weight increases? It looks like the dry...

My unscientific trial of using tow/haul yielded poorer mpg.

Given the current geopolitical situation and the possibility of an infrastructure disrupting cyber attack, I think it makes sense to keep the tank at least 1/2 full at all times.

Just a follow up; Fairway Ford has the TBC online for $269 and accepted my Pass pts. for an online purchase. "Out the door" price was $75.00.

Thanks Fawnbuster

OK, thanks for the info. Looks like my local dealer can match Levitown. If not I'll just buy it online and install myself and use my points for something else.

To of those of you who bought a TBC from Levitown Ford, did you purchase online? If so, were you able to use your FordPass pts. When I contacted them I was told that to use Pass pts the purchase had to be in person at the store. Could not be used for online purchases, plus the $280 price was...

I had just the opposite impression. My XLT FX4 with the stock Hankooks did great in our last snow storm.

XLT 302A package definitely does NOT include heated mirrors. A huge mistake on Ford's part in my opinion.

That is some beautiful wiring!

Interesting. The instructions that came with mine definitely state that the thick foam seal goes on top of the bulkhead rail. I've been in touch with Truxedo about the issue and they've been very responsive, but with no useful fix yet. Your installation looks like it works great...certainly...

I have the lo pro and it leaks like a sieve at the front corners. Grumpaw, can you post a photo of your installation. I'm wondering if that's my problem.

Thanks to all who replied, I think I've found a working solution. With the phone plugged in and Apple Carplay turned off, there is a USB option under sources that allows me to use voice control and access my entire music library. Thanks again.

Yes to both those questions. And also yes, it is the red music icon on my phone.
