  4. Is this a GPS Tracker?

    Just found this little box dangling between my battery and driver side headlight. Is it a GPS tracker? I bought the used truck from my local Ford dealer 2.5 years ago. Never knew this was a thing until I saw a YouTube video this morning and I went looking. Thoughts please.
  5. Towing no more than 3000#s

    Given that I’m never going to tow more than 2500-3000 pounds, much less most of the time, do I need to bother with a Brake Controller? Read all the threads and saw that Ford says up to 3500 without. I’m leaning towards skipping the expense and hassle of Brake Controller. Thoughts?

    So, I showed up at 750am for my 8am 60k service. Talk to the rep describe issue with shuddering and fact I think I need brakes. Says the 60k inspection will check brakes, but the shudder issue needs its own appointment with the ā€œback shopā€. Ok, but maybe your rep should have told me that...
