  • 6 months and 10K miles in my 2021 Ford F150 has been good and bad.. In todays video we cover 6 things I've grown to hate in this truck!
    The new generation F150 has a new feature called cylinder deactivation and it's in my opinion not something that is needed at all as it does not provide better fuel economy. This is only one of the things we mention in todays upload. This video is also a bit of an owners review as these annoying features has been something that has showed itself over time, I hope you enjoy the video!

    #1 is a safety feature--trying to prevent accidental remote starts, particularly when your fob is in you pocket or purse or whatever. They want to make sure there's a deliberate act by the operator and not some random electrical contact glitch in the button(s).

    Hi Mike, my tech advisor keeps telling me that cylinder deactivation is for compliance with stricter emissions standards. Just like auto-engine start/stop, variable displacement technology allows manufacturers to meet tighter emissions targets with their current ICE offerings. Ford must now use every trick in the book to satisfy the EPA, an agency that uses compliance with the Clean Air Act to err on the side of less pollution versus fuel economy. Next stop, our Electric Future.

I found the cloth seats are probably the most uncomfortable seats I've ever had, plus when l tilt the steering wheel to a comfortable position it blocks the top row of gauges in the dash.and yes the audio system is really poor,having a button for the fuel door in the dash is absolutely a pain,the rest of the truck is pretty decent

    The systen you are talking about, makes worst consumption of gas, the reason is because when the system goes from 8 to 4 cyl, trying get "better" consumption, the only thing is happening is, at any bridge or any hills the truck need more power then goes back to 8cyl, just right there that transition means more gas, so, what I see in this kind of system is if you are running in flat, "works, but if the road has bridge or any little hill the gas consumption is really horrible, that's what I saw in that kind of system.

    #6. Had a very similar problem on my 2018 model. I had it in and out of the dealership probably ten times over six months and they couldn't figure it out. I found the problem myself. There's a cruise control module located in your bumper that acts like a radar. It has to be exactly level. Being as you installed the lift kit on your truck you probably need to have it adjusted. It's supposed to be done on a rack but you could probably do it yourself. It's like aiming a headlight

    I'm a technitian at ford,we had the oil consumption issue on the previous 5.0 .Ford actually says in the workshop manual that they allow 1 qrt of oil consumption per 3000 miles. I would never go by the dash. If your towing or driving it hard that could b more. So basically I've seen trucks 3 to 3 and 1/2 qrts low. The ecoboost does the same thing. I've had them come in with a phaser rattle and come to find out it was low on oil because they waited for the oil life on the dash to tell them to change it

    I’ve found 2 things on my 21 that are driving me crazy. First one is the horn beep that goes off if you get out of the truck when it’s running and you have the fob in your pocket. It happens literally when you get a foot away from the truck. The other one is that Ford can’t seem to figure out how to make a trailer plug/ trailer light module work with LED lights. All my trailers I tow have LED lights and they all give me an alert (chime) like your abs fault non stop when towing. They have changed the trailer light module, the trailer plug and I’ve tried probably 7 or 8 trailers now and they all give a fault of some sort. Sometimes it says trailer disconnected, sometimes check a certain turn lamp, sometime trailer light module fault and every time it does it all the lights are still working. Seems there is an adapter you can buy off Amazon but the point is Ford should know that folks are going to tow and should make a module that will function properly with both normal and LED trailer lights.
