I found out this weekend that while using Android Auto (maybe CarPlay as well) if you rotate the right radio knob it will zoom the map in and out.

Discovered this today.... if you press on the skinny pedal on the right, you can find Ford F-150's in the rear view mirror...   They just appear there... its like magic!

In case you were wondering...  Two bottles of wine fit in the door compartment perfectly!

Same. Mine showed it to me this morning for the first time in a couple weeks.

We just picked up our Trail Boss two Mondays ago. Not sure if it’s just us but we have been using the back up camera without actually going into reverse but swiping over on the screen and selecting camera. Comes in hand if in a busy parking lot and wanting to check what’s behind you as we get the baby loaded in!

 

Also has anyone heard what sounds like air releasing sometimes when getting out of the truck after turning it off?

Just noticed the LED white  night lighting behind the driver and passenger door handles. 

Nice touch. 

They have had them for quite some time. MY 14 and 15 both had them.

With bench seats, there is a storage compartment under the seat that has a key lock thought that was a decent bit of storage. I was never told about the key fob spot there :P

This is caused by one thing.   Lawyers.

I am one. And yes, we do assume there are enough complete morons out there to make this warning necessary. And no, we do not expect this message to make any actual difference in the behavior of said morons. But hey, we warned them!

Apparently the ability to remote open and close the tailgate is limited to the LTZ and High Country models.

Sierra Denali only opens too. I guess GM figures the Multi-Pro gate is enough of a tailgate feature, they didn't need to add Close on it.

Think it’s more to do with the added weight of the multi-pro tailgate than anything else.

Another fun trivia fact, only LTZ and HC get auto up on the passenger window. I can only imagine the bean counters calculating the savings on only making the driver window auto up on the lower trims. :rolleyes:

Sierra AT4 has the auto down/up on both front windows. Auto down only on both rear windows

Backing my travel trailer up our steep driveway, I am pretty sure the hill holder feature works with the trailer brakes too.

And I discovered yesterday that the remote drains the 2032 battery crazy. I had to replace the battery after 4 months. Now I'm keeping an extra in the truck for emergency ?

Discovered today that my Trail boss is much higher than my 16 z71. Forgot that and pulled in the city parking garage with a 7 ft clearance. My antenna hit every concrete cross member up 8 floors and down 8 floors. That is probably over 100 times. Didn't put my tool box in the truck yet to remove antenna. I looked at the roof in some of the tight corners and I had maybe 1 to 2 inches of Clearance before scraping paint on the roof.

Had a whole line of really pissed off cars behind me stopping ever 10 feet so I wouldn't lose my antenna.

      So if you do nothing and they act on their threats like death to America or Israel. And possibly a nuclear war. Whoever survives wonders why didn’t they listen? Or we do something like every President has said they can’t get a nuclear weapon. We’re at the 10 yard line and it happens the time is now or never. I think I’m ok with paying a little more for gas for awhile. It’s a shame that we now live in a world that’s so polarized.

      6 Speed vs 8 Speed

      4-5-6 fails due to design.  Not enough clutches and not enough piston to clutch surface area.  Also the backing plate can bow.     I'd say converter is two part.  The design of converter chosen, and factory tuning of it aka slipping it in D (also L6) for AFM purposes, as well as locking it up in 2nd gear, sometimes 1st, also it will partially lock up at light loads.  All because CAFE/fuel economy requirements.  A billet converter on the stock tune might hold up better, but would still be subject to the stock tuning and how its designed to lock or partially lock.     The most baffling part to me, is the 2007-2013 6L80s didn't have the failure rate the 2014-2018 ones do.  I've been where I work for almost 17 years now, and I recall maybe 3 or 4 of the 07-13 transmissions getting pulled for something.  14-18 on the other hand, it was at a minimum one a month being opened up.    If I had to guess, I'd say the tuning for the gen 5 engines/6L80 setup and its fuel economy goals had a good bit to do with it.  Also, it was bankruptcy time during these years, so I'm thinking some cost cutting was done for the launch of the K2XX trucks.  See also now the 10 speed valve body issues (more cost cutting).  They blow out some mesh screen in the spacer plate, undersized check ball, and the feed limit valve was aluminum and wears out prematurely.         I don't think it was the HP jump from the gen 4 to gen 5?  The 6.2 in the 07-13 trucks was good for 380-400hp during its life/states of tune, and the 5.3 did 310-320hp.

      All this might be worth it had we actually recovered enriched uranium, a WMD, or an actual nuclear deal with oversight. This is a flub of epic proportion, and they all know it.   $5.10 at a station reporting $4.99 last week. Here we go....

      I don't think it's a wild guess Stan I think you hit the target on that reply.
