Didn’t loose me… still waiting. Just noticed tonight that my 754 modules populated as well as the activate button on the FORD app.
I told the salesman I was going a different route. He stopped returning my texts and they kept my deposit. which is fine and I don't feel bad for the dealership. They will sell it if not already gone and maybe with some mark up. Ford told me August 4 for final assembly and that was almost 3 months away. It still does not show shipped. But if I would have know it would be this month I probably would have waited. But I love the color of the new truck. It gets tons of compliments and I kinda like a change from black. Finding out how lame the 2K Pro Power is also makes me feel better. I will be doing a RedArc set up that will blow the stock one away for 5-6 hundred more than factory and it can be on without the truck running. I can't wait for you to get yours. It is such fun truck to drive, (stock or lifted). Still not seeing many on the road in the SLC to Provo area. Maybe two Tremor sightings a month.
Why is the 2k pro power lame? I assume the RedArc you have to run 2 or 4 gauge wire all the way back?
I have no first had experience with it but on other forums people have been having trouble keeping them on and working. They keep resetting, the overhead is high and you have to have the truck running to use it. For high loads this is acceptable, but for everything else it would be nice to not have the truck running. The RedArc stuff can be combined with their BMS, DC to DC chargers with solar controllers. In the end be a better system if that's what you are looking for. Yes I would run 2 or 4 gauge to the bed and add a second battery. Also may go with the 1500 as the overlanding crowd likes the lower overhead of the smaller inverter and it would cost roughly the same as the factory installed one. If I had the Pro Power I would probably end up working around it.
I was also surprised by all the complaints. Primarily it seemed like people having issues with high load starts, or equipment without soft starts built in. It's a 15 or 20 amp breaker so if you have a table saw without a soft start it'll trigger it. I read about people running little AC units with a soft start though, and mini fridges. Not too bad for what it is imo.
Anything with a compressor SHOULD have a build in capacitor to aid in soft starting.
I'm curious... is yours being shipped by truck or train? Also... how long from your Built email to shipped? Just curious what the timeline is right now... Just got my built email this past monday...
Too bad you weren't able to get your deposit back. If you want to be a pain, you should watch for when it's delivered and then give it a week and call the dealership and tell them your ready to pick it up!!! The truck will be re-sold by then and you can say, "I'm excited to come get my new truck!" My bet is that they would offer you a refund of your deposit pretty quick.
Shipped via rail i believe then truck as i am in Canada
Now I'm mad that yours made it out of Dearborn and mine has not. Yours was built a week before mine.
Are you on a chip hold still? Positive vibes you get yours soon!
No man. It’s built they just haven’t shipped it.
