Thanks! Got it back from Ford service and the not-surprising response from them was "We can't reproduce the problem." Given that it seems to happen once every 2 to 3 weeks on a daily driven vehicle that was pretty much what I expected.
You've given me some new things to try on my own. I...
Oh.... you know what - that is EXACTLY what it feels like. Like the vacuum booster has failed. I wasn't sure if these rangers were drive by wire or not.
I searched around and haven't seen anyone else mention this. I've had 3 instances where, immediately after starting and driving for about half a block, on my first brake application, the pedal is incredibly stiff and the truck doesn't stop. After panicking and pressing REALLY hard, the ABS...

I'm an old truck guy, so TPMS is a new thing to me when it comes to working with it.
I'm getting a second complete set of rims for my winter/offroad tires and I'm trying to understand what it takes to make this work with the TPMS. From what I can tell this is doable, but I'll need something to...
Whats the best way to get switched power for additional accessories? While I'm not totally opposed to cutting wires - I'd prefer to avoid it if possible.
