Oddly enough, my door sticker says 35 but Fordpass says "optimal cold tire pressure: 30"
Thats so strange because my door placard says 38 psi cold?:question:

You may want to lower your pressure . It seems Ford ships all their vehicles with high tire pressure. Mine was 45 when it was delivered. Dealerships are supposed to lower pressure to recommended level as as part of new car prep but many overlook it.

Well I just looked and both of my stickers say 38psi. Build date of 11/24 with Goodyear Wrangler Territory AT's 255/70/17. Did Ford make a change at the end of the 2024 model year? 38psi cold means that when the tires are hot , they will be running at at least 40psi and higher.

Interesting. But I'm not surprised by Ford documentation.

We were comparing identical tire models and sizes. Goodyear Wrangler Territory AT's 255/70/17. Both XLT. The only thing I can think of is that I have the V6 which may be heavier as my payload is lower. As the options go up, the payload becomes lower. I optioned my XLT with everything on the order list.

👍I think BriSco just figured it out. The V-6 engine vs. I-4 engine increased the curb weight.
