  1. Have read that Ford has closed the order books for the 22 Bronco Sport as the plant is really backed up with orders We did order one at a dealership today (Saturday) and the salesman said the order was going COVP and was entered as priority 10 Cant find out for sure if the order books or not, fully expect 6 months or so if the order goes thru, just wanting to know if the books are open for ordering Thanks
  2. From what I am seeing on TV, Dodge Ram trucks are on sale now
  3. According to what my dealer told me yesterday, the VVR shows my F250 Tremor scheduled to be built today, ordered the end of Sept
  4. You can get a Ford approved dash cam from the Ford Accessories web page, have it installed by Ford and use Ford pass points on it
  5. Calif laws are a HUGE part of the backup in the ports, historically moving containers in ports fall to the oldest POS semis due to multiple reasons & now Calif has made it impossible for companies to make a profit moving containers as well as mandating electrical vehicles instead of diesel The idiotic California laws are hurting the entire country & the electrical grid is not designed or built to support what Kalif says it needs to support. Calif can’t even keep the lights and AC on in the summer & has to have rolling brownouts along with other electrical power delivery problems & now they are demanding more and more electrical vehicles Not to mention where does the electricity come from, that is the elephant in the room
  6. Did not say Dodge invented it, just that they have a better system & Ford needs to learn from Dodge I can pull the paddle once and hold it & the transmission drops to the lowest gear for maximum performance & then upshifts As needed due to performance Sure ya can lock out gears on the Raptor, but blah, when it’s in Sport mode the paddles are worthless instead of actually being useful
  7. As I am new and trying to figure Out the forum & have no idea how/where to look can you please tell me what vehicles you own/drive, if you live a green/clean energy lifestyle in a climate change friendly home and do not use any fossil fuels, or products made from them. Thank you
  8. Sounds like a complex process & not one that can happen very quick Would love to hear more about how it works & how it’s tied to the VIN
  9. follow the money & see who is getting rich off of the climate scans, or think for yourself instead of being told how to think You can go back 50 plus years and see how the climate change wackos have screamed the earth is doomed & how they have always been proven wrong time and time again If they were really serous we would have nuclear power instead of solar and wind and all the other carbon burning power productions methods keep spouting your propaganda and I shall keep laughing
  10. Good info about the tranny & axles, so it sounds like the different major assemblies are all put together somewhere else, shipped to KTP and they put them together like legos building the truck
  11. I do not tow anything with my Raptor, but do spent quite a bit of time on very curvy mountain roads and really wish they were better programmed, but that is just me
  12. Have tried this and found it to be lacking However, the paddle shifters in our Dodge Charger SRT are excellent and I use them quite frequently, Ford should take a closer look at how dodge does it and copy them
  13. Have you ever seen a volcano blow, I lived thru Mt Pinatubo eruption, that one volcano put out more pollution and did more damage to the earth than man has in his entire time on the planet and the planet healed itself But keep believing in the propaganda and feel you are doing something to give meaning to your life as nothing I say will ever make a impact on you or cause you to change your mind
  14. Watched a couple videos of the KTP in action, but they showed completed assemblies being put into place & not the actual build. Question is where/how do they build the motors, transmissions & other components they assemble into a unit that is then inserted into the vehicle. They show building body panels, but nothing about wiring harnesses and all the other pieces parts that go into assembling the truck
  15. Thank you, I had no idea such a program existed, nothing was said about this when we ordered our F250
  16. Anybody have their vehicle ceramic coated, if so, what do you think of it, what kind of maintenance does it require & do you still use automatic car washes?
  17. I never use the paddle shifters in the Raptor, they seem like a total waste to me, but I really like the console shifter, almost afraid to go back to a column shifter
  18. Earth is not a very fragile planet, it is a very strong planet and able to heal itself Man is very egotistical and narcissistic to believe the planet is fragile
  19. Howdy from Wyoming, have a F250 Platinum Tremor on order & love how much knowledge this form provides, plan on reading lots & learning even more
