Trail Boss doing Chevy stuff

I suspect the engine on the ground in front of it under that tarp because there is nothing under the hood.

Real question though, is this finding new roads or like a rock?

I briefly had a 2020 model with the 6.2L engine. I got rid of it as fast as I could.

This is no joke: On the drive home from the dealership on the day that I bought it, with 18 miles on the odometer, the CEL came on and the infotainment display told me that I needed to take the vehicle to a dealership ASAP. I did a U-turn and after 30 minutes of waiting in the customer lounge I was told that the brake booster had failed and that the part was on national backorder.

Long story short, I caused an enormous scene on their sales floor and they finally agreed to pull one off of another new truck on the lot.

A few months later the 6.2L developed the infamous cylinder head / lifter problems on both driver and passenger banks. After being told that it would have to sit for at least 16-weeks while they waited for parts, I raised hell with GM and they bought the truck back under the Lemon Law.

Those trucks are gigantic pieces of shit.

Geez that’s rough.

Don’t get me wrong, I know Ford is not perfect. However, I like Ford designs better and have been a Ford guy all my life. My grandfather worked at the Atlanta Ford plant so that side of the family all drive Fords.

Truth be told, one of the biggest reasons I like Ford is because it’s the opposite of the typical Chevy guys always talking about Ford. Their mouth always runs better than their vehicles do, so I’m just the antithesis of the pop-culture Chevy fan. Like being a Red Sox fan because you hate the Yankees.
