"What a mess! Before or after the infestation?" I started searching mouse/mice posts in this group right after discovering the the initial infestation and screened the openings immediately. After I got what I thought was the only infestation I discovered the others one at a time because of the...

This is incredible, I thought my cabin filter was bad but it may have been because they were heading towards their other nests and stashes in my truck. My cabin filter may have a rest stop along the way. They had nests in the lower part of the back of the driver's seat, above the headliner, the...

I always push my cruising speeds to +7 MPH 65 = 72 MPH 70 = 77 MPH That said some online research, (that I rarely to never take as the Gospel) indicates; Speed ~Relative Aero Load 65 MPH ~1.00 72 MPH ~1.22 77 MPH ~1.40 So at 77 MPH, the engine is doing ~40% more aero work than at 65 — even...

I just finished a 210 mile flat road round trip, (105 + 105). Temps are 30ish, winds are single digit MPH. Citgo 93 Octane/10% Ethanol blend. 2021 XLT SuperCrew has slightly less than 20K on the odometer. 2K miles on the last Mobil 1™ oil change. All but about (10) of the (210) miles were on...

I have a SuperCrew Take your dome light down and poke your borescope in there to see if they have been storing any Kibbles ‘n Bits™ and/or relieving themselves above the liner. They got into mine, someone in this forum said they go up the inside of the A-Pillar. It was a pain to clean out and...

Did you figure out your running light problem? I have the same thing on my 2021 XLT with the trailer tow package. The odd thing is that I have supervisory voltage of about 2.7 volts on the Brown lead/pin/wire which is the running lights. ChatGPT suggested disconnecting the (-) negative battery...

I spent several weeks of the Summer of 2024 cleaning up after the mice infestations in my 2021 Ranger as I found their hangouts. They were residing in these areas; 1). Top of cabin filter 2). Console under shifter boot 3). Console under E-Brake boot 4). Back of driver's seat cover on rear...

(40) years ago I worked for a Bosch Warehouse Distributor in the Upper Midwest where snow, ice and torrential rains challenge wipers. I started purchasing the higher end Bosch wiper blades blades and I have always been pleased with them. Not so with the Bosch 26A16A Icon blades I purchased for...

That is what I have been running in the Truck & SUV formula ?‍♂️ I am only putting on 3,000 miles per year (+/-) which is about when my OLM sends me the message.

I may have missed any previous threads if they exist within the forum but I am curious; Is anyone running A5 oil? https://www.ford.ie/owner/service-and-maintenance/service-promotions/castrol-products

Also fact (in my world): new wiper blades add 7 HP. :sunglasses: Cool, I have a set of Bosch Icons new in boxes waiting to be installed. I'll get back to you on how many Gs I am pulling on acceleration when I get them on my truck.

I use Shell 93 but it is a pain in the ass for me as well. (13) miles from my driveway and (5) miles from where I usually shop for essentials. I am split on why I go out of my way to use it. Detergents and additives + it is the only 93 octane available in my area. Not all of the Shell stations...

Shell V-Power® NiTRO+ 93 - It is not the easiest to find in my neighborhood and it lowers my MPG. BUT...when the ECU gets the OAR feedback the performance improvement is proof that it is liking it.

I just put a set of Nitto 275/60 R17s on my all stock '21 XLT with no clearance problems. My Nittos are the same 31.7 inches in diameter as your Kumhos. I went down to my garage to cycle the front tires left to right & right to left and the closest my tires get to that brace is what appears to...

Hmmm ? I've been wondering about that top reading since I started monitoring it via the Torque App. Thanks for your post

If it's not leaking and you can't see any "whiskers" under the flap glue it down with "Black Death" gasket/weatherstripping adhesive and use it as the spare.

How bad was the smell in your truck? The smell in my truck was so bad this summer that my girlfriend insisted that we use her car to go anywhere. She is a retired Physician Assistant (PA) so germs were an issue too because of the diseases mice can carry. She is back to riding in it now that I...

I did the vent behind the rear seat back with aluminum gutter guard that I purchased at my local Menards. I only had to do the driver's side, the passenger side is a solid blank on my '21 XLT. The screen is held in place with weatherproof cable ties that are wrapped around the vent slats at the...

airline tech I just want to thank you for all of the information you have provided on this issue. The infestation in my truck was severe. I have a couple of posts with pictures of my finds and resolutions many of which are very similar to yours so thank you again for your pics and explanations...
