ADVICE: Don't buy this truck. Ford should have recognized this to protect the owners.
Mexicans will take anything they can get their hands on.
Yeah shoot'em
**sometimes you'd almost think they were all ***PROGRAMED***to do that shit******************
********Demoralized = Into a bunch of homeless, drug addicts, criminals and whores.************
**They're starting to figure out EXACTLY ***WHO** CREATES THE PROBLEMS TO BEGIN WITH***
🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️
lol don’t buy a 90k truck
$1300 dollar tail light, made in China, for $10.25 !!!
IF there was only a way to keep law breakers away from the law abiding… Someplace they could be housed, like a bird in a cage, away from general populations… But since we have DA's, Judges and prosecutors who don't have balls, spines or honor. these things will continue.
45acp!!!
If the courts would start cutting the hands of thieves, this would end fast.
Trucks cant fit in garages so thats out and cameras normally dont deter thieves at all they just steal even with cameras
So happy taillghts are good quality now and at $ 2,300.00 a pair lets me know you're really looking out for the hard working people of America, 👏👏👏👏don't forget to upgrade the gas cap to $750.00 ,that sounds good ,right mr. c.e.o.
Tail gate theft is also very common now. With thieves removing the various truck manufacturers' tailgates in a matter of 2 minutes. Then sell them of Facebook marketplace or Craigslist for around $600-$800 apiece.
Doesn't the newer ones have the locking tailgate like the older models?
No one mentions LOCK THE TAILGATE, which is access to the screws…
surely a high end Ford has a locking tailgate?
Also the lane detection/etc may be traceable back to vin & ECM that it was stolen from
I think they have to program any new or used LDM to ECM (not sure but im sure they will find away to charge 200.00 to put it on the truck)
$1800 bucks on e bay 😳
Engineering all that tech garbage into a tail light, is as ridiculous as the fools that buy this garbage, and are willing to spend that much money, for a pickup truck.
How about locking your tailgate!!!!
I solved this problem by owning a 2003 Chevy Silverado.
Maybe the police can try a little follow-up. Those are being sold by someone to third parties. This requires some level of advertising. Check out all the online stores locally and bust the guys selling them.
Thats what happens when you replace an 80 cent lamp with a $1000 led assembly.
You buy a truck that costs $80.000 thousand dollars now you have to buy $15.000 in devises to keep it from getting taken apart😅🛻
Tail lights on full size GM stations wagon were a target starting in 1977.
All you have to do lock your tailgate
I do believe the new pickup trucks the tailgate locks when you lock the car recommend locking your doors
So thieves do not care about cameras or lights usually. They even look at the cameras with full face exposures. They know they will get booked and released, no real sentences or time in jail.
Ok. Police “warn.” Are Police also “arresting?” Are Prosecutors also “prosecuting?” Or will this be like San Francisco where crime is rampant and criminals left to their own devices?
Should have just made the ones with the bulbs
Easy fix really, cut off the thieves hand. Does 2 psychological things, 1, people see a POS with one hand, you KNOW he's a thief and 2, serves as a mental deterrent to NOT STEAL because NOW there's consequences 🤔 👋
