'24 RR
- Ordered June '23, built Jan '24, delivered April '24 w/66 miles
- Hot Pepper Red
- Options: Spray in bed liner, mud flaps, dealer installed Ford roll-up aluminum bed cover.
Dealer is in north central Iowa and the day after purchase drove 1,150 miles to Wyoming home.
- MPG 15.7-17.9.
- Great highway driver, regardless of speed (have a date in July for Ford's Assault Course). Ford does seats great. Very comfortable.
- Large screen a significant distraction - be careful.
- On screen owner's manual are just Clip Notes. Shame on Ford for not including a real manual. Purchased one on line - $55 delivered.
- Ford's roll-up bed cover is a disappointment. Was bad enough dealer ordered a second and it still doesn't fit correctly. I'm returning it and have ordered a Bak.
- Lots of "holes" for dust/dirt entry in bed. Given number of owners that install a bed cover, cap or carpet, a proper manufacture engineered tail gate seal seems logical.
Removed the factory running boards - they look nice but I'm old and wife hates them. Currently in the process of installing electric running boards. Got the Go Rhino boards because I did not want to tie into the OBD port. I like the magnetic trip and 4 motors. Instructions are a disappointment, but a couple of University of Youtube clips and it's easy to figure out. Hot and Ground wires to battery a little short so have extended them. Install not complete so can't tell how they work yet.
Ordered some slightly raised letters for the recessed stamped letters in the tailgate, BUT ... be suspect of ads indicating letters that fit '19-'24 models as the tailgate letters on the current RR are slightly narrower than previous G5 models and G5 letters do not fit.
