I have a 2018 xlt and itll stay up, but its so heavy itll fall at the slightest movement. Very annoying when i need to get another cigarette when i drive. Also what drives me nuts about it is it very clearly was designed to be a little desk, but you cant fold it to be one! The underside it the exact same as the new ones with the foldable table, except smaller of course. So obviously they were trying to figure it out for a while. Blows my mind they just left it like that! Makes me wish i could use it instead of the steering wheel.
Seriously I got a 2024 and this damn console drives me crazy. Why wouldn't ford fix such a simple thing to not piss off f 150 owners, makes you wonder if they really give a damn about their trucks....
Good idea. But at the time of this comment, your video is one year old. Due to crazy inflation, you'll have to update the video and change the nickel to a quarter. 😀
Best use of 10c you can find these days. Thank you.
Ford "We don't need to test it." Engineer "Why doesn't that stay up?" Ford "It doesn't matter, they'll buy anything."
Ford could put that nickel in as an option but it would cost you $185.
Option code 505f, $209 actually.
OMG, this has pissed me off for a year! Thanks for the tip.
Thanks, worked for me!
Absolutely genius!
Awesome video !

I Hate that floppy Lid

That’s not how a warranty works.

You pay $55k ,you shouldn’t have to do this
you dont have to do it
Nothing to do with the price. This setup is a catapult towards the backseat passengers. Not exactly safe.
55,000 for an SLT they go up to 95
Yes! Terrible design by Ford.
All lies this doesn’t work
Worked for me
