Guess it is personal preference, but I've driven multiple 3+ hour trips with the 5th wheel this season so far and have felt no fatigue with the seats in my '24. I actually like them better than the seats in my '21 F350, which I felt were too soft. What bothers me more is that the seat base seems to be shorter than on the F350. Anyway, consider getting seat covers for them or swap out the cloth for Katskin leather.

Mine does this as well. Never thought much of it and still don't.

That is interesting. I don't think I've ever seen a Trailering Information tag split out gooseneck and fifth wheel. Usually they both fall under "Gooseneck" and are the same rating.

What was the castor angle after the alignment? Mine is all the way up near -5% and it is noticeably stiffer than my previous F350. I do get that bump steering though, especially during the winter driving over all those upheave strips here in MI.

It is possible to find them painted from a parts recycler. Some of them even have new surplus parts directly from GM. It would be a bit of work calling around and seeing who has/can get what, but it is doable. You'd probably be looking at ~$500-$700 for that painted piece. Another option is if the dealer you order the parts from has a collision center, they can paint match the part for you if you. Just be sure to give them one of the painted trim pieces you are replacing on your truck so that they can match the paint properly.

I am not aware of anything aftermarket-wise, but if you wanted to stay with OEM parts your best bet would be to swap out the grille to a 2020-2023 High Country grille. You would also need a paint-matched grille surround since it is different for the High Country grille.

This thread will help: Fuse F26 and that auxiliary power pin in picture on the passenger's side fuse box can be used as an ACC source. I used the aux pin for my seat heaters and dash cam.

Being able to adjust the bottom seat angle is a big plus in terms of comfort. I have mine adjusted all the way up to the tallest position.

What were the symptoms the truck was exhibiting that prompted a look into the transmission?

For me, the bigger bed is worth it. I could not imagine going back to a half ton short bed.

Plenty of unused parking lot space at the mall. Gonna become nothing more than a storage lot soon if more stores keep closing.

The 7” screen is the IOR module, and you are pretty much out of luck upgrading to the factory 8” IOS or IOU screens. that leaves you with the aftermarket screens that retain the factory interface and overlay an android OS on top of it. These include the Tesla style screens and Z innovations screens. Neither these options have appealed to me after fully understanding their drawbacks/limitations. I am just going to stick with the small screen for now. The DONSLIFE YT channel has a number of videos reviewing these options extensively, including the workarounds for some of the drawbacks.

I have the Husky Aeroskin on mine. Love it. Easy to install. Just take your time to line it up perfectly, as it sticks directly to the hood with double-sided tape and it won't come off after that. I've run hood deflectors in all my trucks and they definitely help with rock chips at the front of the hood.

I haven't heard much if any complaints about death wobble in the 2020+ trucks. Was definitely an issue pre-2020.
