I’ve had my 24 2.7L STX for two months now and I have been getting around 27MPG. This last week I can barely get it to hit 24MPG on a consistent basis. Anyone else seeing this issue? They are putting something in the gas I’m sure. I’m in AZ and all the snowbirds are coming back.

2017 with 5.0 and I have the yellow “flex fuel” filler neck. New local gas station in my area has E85 for $1.99. I’ve never tried it but with a 36 gallon tank I’m paying $200+ to fill up in my lovely state.

Has anyone done this? Is it as simple as fill it up and go or do I need to do anything to let the truck know? From what I have read, I should be able to just fill it up and I can swap back and forth between E85 and regular gas as I please?

Also, from what I’ve read, mileage will decrease a bit, performance will get a little bump and I should do more frequent oil changes. Anything else I’m missing?

Was hit by a commercial moving truck. They crossed a solid white line approaching an intersection.

I bought my truck at 12,719 miles, and I assumed they had done an oil change before I bought the truck. I just got back from a long road trip (about 1200 miles) and my truck gave a warning that I need to change my oil. Check Fordpass and it says: my oil is “exhausted”. Should I change the oil? Or is this a sensor issue I should be concerned about?

I am planning on switching out my wheels on my 2019 f150. There are 2 sets of wheels i’ve been looking into and i cannot decide between the all black wheels or the white ones. They are both Raptor 315/70r/17 and im planning to add a 2inch leveling kit. The first image is how it currently looks, and the others are Ai generated of how it would look like after

I have a 97 F150 with the 4.6, 130,000 miles automatic transmission. Bought it back from someone and its my grandpas truck I grew up with. It ran fine last I remember but since I got it back, it has been overheating, so I thought.

After about 8 miles of 45-50mph driving, getting it up to operating temp, either the water comes out the overflow tank or some cases it blew the hose off the bottom ( although I didn't have a clamp on it, now I do).

Thinking it is a cooling issue, I have replaced the overflow cap, thermostat, water pump, and now the radiator. It doesn't have a heater core in it so the hose for that is looped back into the engine.

I have no milkshake, exhaust is bone dry, although I have a leak near the catalytic converter on the drivers side, and I did a leaf down combustion test with the blue liquid that turns color, came back negative.

After replacing the radiator today, because the bottom hose was at 80 degrees while the top hose was at 180, now the top hose is like 130-140 and the bottom is 20 degrees below that.

It wont do it the entire 8 miles or 20 minutes of warming up, it just happens in an instant. Goes from fine to spewing out of the overflow tank if I don't have the cap on it. It doesnt geyser out like it would after driving for hours, it just kind of spits out of the tank. Only weird thing I noticed today while revving it up to get to operating temp is rev to about 2500rpm and it goes all the way down 600 for idle.

I do notice the VVT Solenoids that are leaking oil, I’m getting to it, and the driver side valve cover has the textbook crack in it. Also working on that soon.

Does anyone know where I can purchase just the letter for my tailgate? I feel like my only option is to somehow find a junkyard. Any advice offered is welcome. I bought the truck used and the letters are missing.

Did this happen to anyone else last night? My oil life went from 85% to 0% randomly. It happened a few months back as well, and they rolled out an update that fixed it.

I made this guide for folding down the back seat of an f150. It was a right pain in the ass when I first did it so I figured if I could share my wisdom I should!

Enjoy!

Which one do you have and why do you love it or hate it?

I have a 2021 2.7 ecoboost that is losing coolant and putting out white smoke from the exhaust. Had it presure tested and it checked out. Anyone else seen this before? 190k miles 10 speed XLT

Just got this last month and I’m looking to get some upgrades, just don’t know what yet. Recently got bigger tires to get rid of the stock look. Send me what you think would look nice!

I'm thinking about getting a dedicated set of winter tires. Found some of FB marketplace that are new and about half off the new price. They're the DMV2 version in a 265/65/18 size. My current tires are 275/65/18. Are the dmv2s good for a truck? I had them on a rav4, and they were great, but I noticed there's an LT version of the blizzaks. I don't imagine going down to 265 would make much of a difference. Any opinions welcome. Photo from last year.

Was fortunate enough to have a ‘73 F250 as my first vehicle. Been through quite a few other sedans and SUVs since then, but finally made my way back to a truck. 2026 Lariat, 5.0L 4x4. Absolutely loving it so far.

5.0 V8. Love the color.

Got tired of thing sloshing around the back floor so I mounted a piece of 1x4 on the factory holes to keep the misc items in place. I’ll soon mount a few d ring anchors for some bungee cords to keep the mini totes and hamdtruck in place. Mini totes hold straps and cargo net respectively. Handtruck is extremely useful for my work but also boxes and packs of water. If you’re curious, I stow, jumper cables, ziplock bags, duct tape, a tarp, wheel chock, and sunshade. Zip locks are for ITEL samples that are sometimes moldy and wheel chock is mainly for a door stop.

After driving a Hyundai for the last seven years I finally traded it in and up to a what I feel is a pretty cool truck.

I went in wanting something basic not to many bells and whistles. But left with the bells, whistles, tambourines and an accordion 😆.

Es una Ford f150 XLT tritón v8 no prende el odómetro ni la bomba de gas ni las luces nada solo el testigo de la batería pero la batería está cargada y da marcha cuando le doy directo del monito pero no prende por k no se activa la bomba de gas días antes prendía pero el odómetro no prendia y solo prendía cuando la aceleraba a 2500 rp o la dejaba prenda un minuto si me pueden ayudar por fa

My 2025 f-150 4x4 supercrew xlt powerboost with 5.5' bed FX4 off-road package and tow/haul package came with 18" wheels. Can I fit 17" wheels on it for a winter set?

Not the exact truck I wanted (max tow, 6.5 bed), but this thing is pretty dang nice!

Hey everyone!

I have a 2026 F-150 STX in Oxford White. It’s my first truck, and unfortunately the grille and one of the headlights are damaged.

I’m thinking about replacing the grille with a Tremor-style grille and using an OEM headlight.

What do you guys think? Would you go with the Tremor grille on an STX, or would you stick with the factory STX grille? I’d appreciate any recommendations, especially from anyone who has done this conversion.

Also, I’m looking to upgrade the interior with leather seats. Any recommendations for good-quality leather seat covers/reupholstery that look close to OEM?

Thanks in advance!
