I have a 2015 F250 with a front bench seat. While it smaller than the other 2 front seats, I have had someone who is 6’2” sit in it for an hour long drive without much of an issue.

But they have to have a place to put the PRNDL stick because all of the people that knew how to put it on the steering stalk have retired!

The middle tunnel is where a good chunk of the driveline components go. Just think of it as huge transmission tunnel. Makes great use of the space when you consider this needed to drive over everything. You rarely scrape fragile components on the ground when the frame is lower than most of your driveline.

This article is likely speaking both towards the testing that has been ongoing over the past decade as well as the most recent bout of testing. The helmet has likely gone through many different variations over the past decade along with the airframe itself.

They already have the pattern recognition in order to determine the angle of the trailer for the current tech. I wonder how much more complicated it would be to do that for longer distances.

What does “End Use Certificate” mean?

Semi drivers are (ideally) paying far more attention to the road than the average driver. They also tend to drive far more miles; so they are more practiced. One minor mistake is all it takes to cause a lot of damage. I would much rather more people be driving cars that don’t let them do stupid things, so I don’t have

I was just reading that the new F150s that have essentially this feature use the cameras under the mirrors to assist with lane-keeping. They both alert the driver as well as provide a small amount of torque to keep the vehicle in the lane. Add that to the adaptive cruise control...

I’m assuming you have read the article posted about the F-150 which adjusts the angle of the trailer for you when reversing? It was posted a couple weeks ago.

I just learned last night that the most recent F-150 has adaptive cruise control. This was a feature that I was hoping and waiting for for a while, but eventually decided it would take forever for it to come to trucks; so I bought an F-250 a short while ago.

As much as I agree that someone should be able to drive their car without any of the nannies, the backup camera and sensors on my F-250 are such a beautiful thing. The truck is so wide that I actually can't see most cars behind me when I am parallel parking. Being able to look at the camera and have the screen light

What I am finding most interesting as of late is that, while there has always been “fanboying” of the big three, previously I always saw the primary fight as Ford vs Chevy. Lately GM has fallen behind by a lot and isn’t really that much of a competitor. The new battle is Ford vs Dodge.

I find it funny how many people complain about not being able to reach over the side of the bed. At 5’4” I haven’t ever been able to reach over the side of any bed, and it hasn’t hampered me from using my truck at all. That being said, I have been loading and unloading trucks since I was 10 years old, so I do have

Ram definitely has the right idea with the special bed for duallies rather than just adding some wide fairings onto the sides. The smooth lines look so clean and actually make the truck look slightly slimmer than it really is. I do wonder what this does for fuel economy as well...

He did not strike a woman. He struck an assailant.

Ramps? That 5th wheel looks long enough to have some pretty lengthy ramps stored inside/on top.

Okay, now that is cool. That wasn’t explained that well in the marketing video above. I thought it was just reversing the steering direction. Do want, but I just bought an F-250 in November...

Or, grab the bottom of the steering wheel instead of the top. Now steer as normal...

No electronically disconnecting anti-roll bar? They have it on the Power Wagon. Seems like something that could be added here rather easily.

I’m really curious to see how this plays out. So many diesel tuners have been pushed off of the market because of the new EPA rulings. Its hard to find something that is more than a couple point bump.
