JD thanks for clarifying the factory upfitter wiring at the fuse box. Have a 24 Lariat and need to install my trailer camera monitor. Still don’t understand why ford uses such small wires for the pass through harness

Love the install. Wish GM would get off their duff and finish the upfitter package for the AT4 and Denali 2024 trucks. They have it for the non AT4/Denali trims. Also slightly disappointed (wasn't a deal breaker) that an $88K HD truck doesn't come with upfitters from the factory.

Aluminum lock body seems like an inherent design flaw. With how heavy and strong everything else is, that lock body should be hardened steel ... otherwise it's probably done for in under a minute with a small 12v drill. Or heck, you could split the lock body with any of a dozen methods if it's just aluminum...i'm thinking a wedge and a few good slams with a mallet even.

Those wires in the kick panel are usually for PTO functions.. that white tag labels what each one gets hooked to on the Mucnie harness (PTO) the only place to hook into your upfitter switches are the blunt cut wires coming out of the small relay box under the hood that also should had a white tag labeling what colors do what.

We've had several Airstreams and we love our Flying Cloud Bunk. But Airstream is very slow to innovate in some interesting areas. For example, awning lights. Sure, they have LED strip lighting, but you have to have the awning extended to use it. We also have a Winnebago Travato which has the awning light strip such that you can use it extended or not. Airstream also does not have Bluetooth enabled AC units like the Travato. If I were by myself, I'd definitely consider a Bambi. Not sure if the bed would be big enough for me. I'm only 5'-9", but that bed looks pretty small.

I understand the desire to try and route that wire in a clean way in the engine compartment, but all I could think about was what happens the first time the truck needs any work that involves removing the fenders, grill, radiator, etc. The service techs will cut that wire in about two seconds flat and if you're lucky they'll "kinda" put it back together when they are done.

Wire gauge is too thin. I plan on running 12 and 14 gauge wires into the cab as a bundle. I found a couple routing options. With a factory wires, I'd have to add additional relays, which really don't make sense considering all the upfitters have relayed connections. 25-40amp

The fact that a metal chassis is relying on attached structures for stability and strength is what I heard. Why would anyone allow something that is designed to fail to be on the road? Like he said, it may be something as simple as hitting a limb. Why would that have and effect on the structural stability of the frame? It seems that neither the frame builder or the RV builder want to take responsibility for the failures. It has to be one or the other, but he seems to be saying that it is a combined failure. This company build these to contract specs from the manufacturer. How many of the chassis are deemed "out of spec" during the build process? I highly doubt that 100% pass, but I bet they still get sent out the door. Then do the manufacturers inspect them before beginning a build? How many of those get rejected?

Flame red truck with electric blue pine strip right there: sick. Any contrasting color pin strip right there, yes. Bc it a huge factory (not added with screws) flare and seamless with the rest of the quarter panel gives a signature of depth to that stance. I would do that. And a light up ford emblem. Lights on the steps. That’s it. Not too little. Not too much.

I agree. I just put in an order for a 2024 F450 high output Platinum and will upgrade to the DCR fuel pump when the truck comes in. We're going to go full time RVing so if the Bosch pump let's go I can't afford to have the truck down for weeks while the dealership repairs the entire fuel system under warranty. I'd rather pay the price of getting a more reliable pump than worry that the Bosch one will go bye bye and take my fuel system with it.

​@stevenjefferys10 the Bosch pump is top notch, just not designed for US diesel fuel. Also, in case u didn't know, the DCR pump WILL void your engine warranty. The disaster prevention kit will not. The cp4 is fine as long as you change fuel filters often and use additives.

Yeah what you described in the first minute is why I don’t let anyone touch my 2023 F-450. These days if you hire someone to drive four bolts, they’ll cross one, strip one, finger tight one and lose one. The condition from the factory is bad enough. I run mine as is
