    Not sure how none of y'all couldn't know, but ford finally recalled the door issue many of the new gen trucks had.

    Looks like my 2016 F150 is going to be part of this recall then...I have never been involved in one...what is the process?

    What a bitch. Buy the nicest truck I've owned, find out a week later it won't fit in the parkade of the office we're moving in to mid-Nov. No street parking either.

    Business partner's truck wouldn't fit, it's a 2500 Chev diesel with a leveling kit and all that. When it was him I was like "sucks to be you, better get a car", now that I can't ..."THIS IS A TRAVESTY! We need to find something!"

    If you need to kill some time heres a decent read lol
    Coles-Guy has a 2015 3.5 EB and blows his motor with only 21k miles and complains to the forums. Interwebz goes into action and finds out buddy did some major performance mods to his truck, he then deletes his threads about his mods but they find them with google cache anyway.

    I am experiencing problems with my back up sensing system. It just beeps (solid) whenever I put the truck into reverse when there is nothing behind. I never had problems with it before and this literally started today when I was backing the truck out of the garage. Can someone try me if this is a common problem or if there is an easy fix? I am not sure when I can get to the dealer for them to have a look. I guess for the time being I can just turn off back up assist to get rid of the annoying constant beep when reversing.

    Are your sensors clean?

    Mine is also occasionally doing this. Not sure if weather is a factor or what. Clean sensors. It's always far left sensor. If it becomes an issue I will take it to the dealer

    Replacement sensors are not cheap. In this weather ice behind sensor can be an issue even if the front is clean. Not sure how that makes any sense but I've seen it.

    My sensors are clean. I even made sure all four rear bumper sensors are clean by wiping them. All rear proximity sensors showing red on the screen. I will take a drive in a bit to see if they are still malfunctioning.

    Rode in my co-workers '15 3.5EB truck...has an intake and brogrammer which claims 600whp. My gosh is it a rocket. Focus RS with a Stage 1 tune has trouble with it.

    Not until the cloud of oil smoke happens, anyway. Lol I can’t see one living long at that level.

    this issue pops upoccasionally for me as well. but it only happens after i wash the truck and it is cold enough for the water to freeze outside. i go to back into my garage after washing her and the back up sensors usually go crazy. the next morning, everything is fine again because the ice is melted.

    My sensors are back to normal for now. I'll keep an eye on them and see if problems return.

    I doubt its making 600whp. thats going to require more than a tuner and an intake.

    I can state with full certainty the twin K03s will absolutely NOT support 600whp (that’s between 650-700 crank) they simply can’t flow enough.

    Your coworker is either lying or gullible. Reliably I think the limit is somewhere around 100 extra hp over factory. So reliably under 500hp crank.

    Edit: here’s what went into building a reliable 600 crank hp 3.5l by Livernois.
    Granted as they state this set up is probably capable of a lot more your buddy isn’t going to be able to touch this with an intake and tune.
