That's just neater than a skeeters weedeater thanks just bought a 2018 f150 xlt
Hahaha! I might have to use that one!
fingers crossed for your engine lol have you looked up the 18-19 engine issues? yikes.
@@nickh7040 the 3.3L is awesome as long as you aren't wanting to tow a bunch if heavy stuff with it. Lol. No issues or complaints out of mine
Perimeter sensor and Ford Pass code. Who wants to deal with all that? Not me. I hope these frustrating levels of complexity are not in all F-150s.
@@cubehire3653 Cube, and here you are watching an online video. Surely you have sense enough to use new truck technology?
Secret feature number 11......when you park it in the driveway, neighbors come with a list of stuff you need to haul for them.
Bill White most of my neighbors have trucks

"vertically challenged spouse" absolute gold
We gotta stay politically correct! 🤣
Lmfao
these are the things I wish salesguys knew to tell me when looking at the truck
If you paid some profits, I would take the time to show you some of these things. Unfortunately a lot of "new truck customers" come in with an entitled attitude, they want you to do jumping jacks and cart wheels and roll the red carpet out for them... they think the dealer shouldn't make any profit on them, that you'll just make it up on the next guy.
@@matthewhartup941 As a consumer in a very competitive market segment, I would say most customers are within their rights to expect this. It is those little things that help seal the deal. Yes 9 out of 10 people are just tire kickers but that is what makes the difference
@@mobgma Thanks for educating me on how buyers think and how the car business works.
@@matthewhartup941 That's what you get for being an obnoxious prick...😂😂
@@matthewhartup941 sounds like an entitled salesman to me lol
Hahaha 11:15 I'm not a scientist, I'm just from Alabama!
You're head acts like a big amplifier with all the electrolytes in it and your range is extended.
Well its the fluid in your brain. It wil work with any fluid. Use it on a Burger King cup
Nick Mercado oh I coming from Athens, Georgia since moved 1996 came from Alabama Alabama Alabama Alabama. Oh I learned from Ford yesterday as very interesting about Ford Ranger was very 😎 cool had been driving tested very computable drived. I heard Nissan Titian vs F150 between Ranger. I bet they are Botha of those good quality trucks as no matters what’s worthy it.
Phillip Dennis I’m an RF engineer and I know exactly why this works.
@@SignalCorps1 well,,,why?
Another thing I found out was: in Drive, you can trim off the higher-gears one by one using the shifter +- buttons. This is essentially an OD off mode, but you can bring it all the way down to 1st gear if you want!
Looks at my 2014 FX4 “Why can’t you do all of that?!?!”
This video was so helpful. Absolutely on point. Thank you.
Watches Video.....runs outside to try everything on my truck....lol. I wish I knew about half these things a year ago when I bought my F150
Me too. I knew more than my sales boy. Didn’t teach me a thing.
Me too, except it’s two years for me since I have ‘1, but it still has all the features
Thank you! I learned something new about my truck today. 👍
Thanks for the video, I learned a couple tricks .. I also really like the ford App with my truck, especially being able too check too see if the doors are locked and starting it from the app is awesome....
I knew all of them except the extra range remote great video keep up the good work mitch
Awesome video. I bought an XLT 2 weeks ago at a dealership 50 miles away. They emailed to say Ford no longer sends them the door code, but they need to hook it up to their computer to get the code. Not after watching this video. I put on key in, turned it on (not start engine). Turned it off and put the OTHER key in. Turned it on and there was the factory door code. NICE!!! Thanks, man.
Excellent video. I've had my 2018 F150 for 1 year now...and learned about a new feature I had no idea it had. I've always wondered what those holes were for in my overhead console.Thank you so much.
Clue: Owner's manual. Read it.
@@kellymc239. Rude comment was uncalled for. I was providing a positive comment to the creator and thanking him for his content. Do you know everything in the manual. I think not. If you can’t say anything nice then just keep quite. The world doesn’t need more rude people in it.
Thanks for the info. I have a 2018 Edge with navigation volume so weak I can’t hear it. I know how to fix the problem now. Also, my 2016 F150 does all those things!
Isn't it amazing to learn all the information contained within an Owner's manual? If only people would actually read them, they wouldn't appear so lazy when they say things like 'I know how to fix the 'problem' now', when it's really not a problem because "someone" was too lazy to read the owner's manual.
Thank you for the video. It was more helpful than the walkthrough of my super duty than I got from my dealership.
I use to work at a stereo shop back in 2000 and we used that under the chin trick back then for the cars we installed Alarms in. It’s something about the human body can be used as a antenna to amplify the signal.
Thank you for not telling me the sun visor telescope. I am tired of that being a hidden feature in videos. This was actually informative. Thank you.
Clue" Owner's Manual. Read it.
@@kellymc239get a life
Ty for this video!!
It gave my hubby a legitimate reason to go out and mess with his new truck! He was at the point of just admitting he wanted to just go stare at it lol
For the 22 Ford F-150, they moved the hidden key place to the bottom cup holder instead of the top.
Just FYI 😊
Ty again! Awesome video!
great video, thanks! Was following incomplete instructions from another page on retrieving factory keyless entry code, but they left off the final, "start the truck" to get the code on the display.

The reason holding your remote to your head works that way is because you're turning the inside of your skull into an antenna.
"I'm not a scientist, I'm just from Alabama." #Boss
The scientific idiots at Morton Thiokol built scientific-scale O-rings for NASA, for the Challenger Shuttle. Look how that turned out....
My buddy bought his black widow f-150 that was actually in the sema show from these guys. Drove all the way from VA to get it. Sweet truck!!!
Awesome video! Has me thinking about theses things in my 2015
Just bought a 2019 Expedition and its the bomb !
Please call 1-800-Iam-ISIS. They called, and want their 2019 Expedition returned to them. Thank you.
"Hahaa you got to make sure you take care of those guys. ... the kids AND the dogs" hahahaha priceless. If every sales person was as knowledgeable about what the hell they are selling, as this guy, you'd probably sell a hell of a lot more cars. I can't tell you how many times I am educating the salesperson about the car I'm looking at when shopping recently. Some of them don't even know the names of the models. Incredible. And hilarious.
Man What a great video. Thank you, This makes me want to fly to Alabama and buy my next ford lol. Bought a 2019 and watched your video
Thanks for the info. Very helpful
Excellent video thank you , what features do share with the Ford Explorer 2019 Limited. Hello from Colombia (S.A)
A Canadian viewer here, thank you so much for the info, pretty much everything applied to my 2019 F-350 Limited, love the truck and I am a new Sub now. Keep up the great work!
If you have delusions of being a new submarine, please contact your local mental health center for advice. Thank you.
@@kellymc239 typically a new sub on TH-cam would be subscriber, I'll be more specific for those with deminished mental capacity.
Kelly MC must be a miserable person based on most of him/her comments.@@mattremer9507
Awesome video! I am gonna be like a kid in a candy store when I pick up my 2020 F-150 Limited in a few days!
Thank you , I leaned a lot about my truck from this video, love my truck!
Don’t even have a Ford and I watched the whole video lol
sickshoes haha same
Same bruh
Another good feature is being able to adjust the brightness of just the infotainment screen without affecting your other interior lights. Sometimes on dark roads at night the screen is too bright because of its size energy though the “dashboard” or “interior” lights are already dimmed. Simple fix for an annoying problem
or increasing the power of your engine on the fly cause your towing a tenthousand pound load up hill🤣
I love these videos. Thank you for continuing to create them.
Nice video as usual Mitchell!!
Thank you for going over these features that I never new I had since my sales person didn't tell me these things when I bought my 2018 ford f150 lariat.
Read the damn owner's manual! That's literally why it's there.
Didnt know about the key in the cup holder thing.. great tips! Was there a winner for the name of the f150?
What if u spill a drink,in that cupholder?
The prompt volume I knew about for a long time but the rest I didnt. Awesome video! I am looking at a 2019 Lariat in the next little while.
Nice video I was wondering how to program my seats and mirrors now I know how to set the features
Just went outside to check my 2018 Raptor. I did not know 9 of these things. I knew I should have bought that Black Widow from you guys. Thanks for the info!
Clue: Owner's Manual. Read it.
If it takes 4 years to reply to a comment, imagine how long it would take to read that manual
You can also press 7/8, 9/10 at the same time to lock your doors. But that’s been around for awhile
or you can just hit the unlock button on the door panel, that works also when you open the door

Thanks for the helpful tips! I just purchased a 2019 F150 and I'm going to try those tips.....
I've had a 2019 since April last year. Wish I would have came across this video earlier. Thanks!
Several things that I did not know. Thanks.
Fantastic video. I wish all car salesmen were as knowledgeable as you!
The secret to being as smart as the 'knowledgeable' sales agent......(wait for it)......read the owner's manual.
Everyone does and then they don’t want to pay the price for the truck they want to haggle it down so you pay for what you get 😁
We had a work truck come in from out of province that was missing the door code placard in the glove box, that nifty key trick made me look like a hero today. Thanks for the tip!
Awesome! Glad to help
One of the most informative and entertaining videos I've watched here. Great work!
The audio will also set to the memory seat if your vehicle is on when setting the memory.
Thanks for the information
Cool video...some of those I knew about and a couple I didn't...Thanks!
The unlock seat position also worked for my 2019 Explorer Limited! Thank you
Awesome! Glad we could help!
Fantastic information. It would be great if you could cover the Edge and Escape.
Just bought a 2019 crew cab sport. Love it. Awesome ride and nice features. Wifey likes it too
Is this one he's showing a crew cab? He doesn't say.
@@lukemain4222 yes

Awesome video thank you so much really appreciate your time ! 👍
Outstanding production. Very helpful
Your damn right that jack is well hidden! Took me an hour to find mine when I got a flat on a sunday...
James Power 🤣🤣
James Power call roadside assistance
Try reading the owner's manual first. That would have saved you 55 minutes.
The chin feature for the extra range was hilarious 😂 .... but it works and I’m try it one day!!!!
Mona619 - it really does work. Not remember where, but learned that years ago. Best use for it is when you’ve just parked and while walking away you realize you forgot to set the alarm. Boom.. put it under your chin and 9/10 you don’t have to walk back to your vehicle.
Just bought 2019 slot FX4 4 this video is awesome God bless you!,,
What a great presenter! Cool info and entertaining enough to watch the whole video.
Wish our local ford dealer was this knowledgeable about their products
Not sure if its new on the 2021 or not, but the lockable under-seat lay-flat storage is absolute GOLD. I'm going to try like hell to hold out for a 6.5 bed hybrid XLT or Lariat...that 7.2kw has me drooling.
As an avid F150 owner of over 12 years now, (07,13,15) I knew all of these tricks except one! I was always wondering why my alarm would go off if something was moving in the truck, now I know! Thank you! HAHA
My dealer did not even know about retrieving the door code like that. Thanks so much!
Awesome job sir ! I have owned over 20 new Ford trucks and continue to find features that didn't get covered during the delivery process , so thank you.
Why, cause they keep falling apart so early you have to buy a new one every year? Makes sense that they are best selling.
@@andybub45 actually I have been blessed and worked really hard to own a business that allowed me to buy what I wanted fairly often. And starting with my first Ford truck in 1988 while I was stationed in Colorado springs until today , I have only had minor issues with 2 of my Ford trucks. So I have been very happy with the great reliability as well as performance and driving experience. But thank you for the response.
Clue: Owner's Manual. Read it.
Im on my 27 th
11:07
The chin technique-
is an old trick but a good one (it really works). I think it makes use of your body as an antenna to improve signal quality.
C SMITH man I feel bad for the fools the fall for this
I am looking at this 3 years after you posted it and I love the video. Very well done! I have viewed many videos and most are very annoying and do not give info. Thank you for a video well done!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching
The alarm trick 🤯 mind blown. I've seen it say that but I guess I never realized it was actually giving me an option.. 👍🏼
You would have realized you had that option, if you had read the owner's manual. It explains how to select the sensor type, and how to set it to default in the driver's dash display menu.
I brought my 2014 XLT to the dealer an oil change, I came out with the a 2019 Lariat FX4. I love all these features. I was wondering what those things overhead were, now I know they are sensors.
You told them to change the oil. They changed the truck. Oops.
You paid for the old trucks oil change right before trading it to them?
placing the key fob closer to your head increases the keys range because your head is mostly water and water is a conductor, amplifying the signal coming from the key fob. The more you know lol
And I thought my head was mostly air....LOL!
You are not from Alabama
And if you wear a tin foil hat and have a good set of cable splicers you can obtain HBO from the neighbors after midnight ⚡️⚡️✅
I loved this video! I've been researching on which year of the F150 I want, and what bell and whistles I need. Yes I'm vertically challenged at 5 foot even so I need that. But you gave off awesome features of this truck! When it's time for me to go shopping for one I'm going to challenge my rep.
You need extra low running boards too haha.
My hidden fob spot is in under center console, 2015 Lariat. Met Mitchell in college, great guy! IHSV
Ford Pass is the BEST hidden feature I've had. I can start my truck from miles away if I want.
Ford pass does alot more than just that I don't understand why Ford don't market it more.
@guy proulx We tried it at the airport this winter, we were a few miles from the truck started it on the app and we arrived by shuttle it was running and nice and warm on a cold winter day. And if someone broke in while its running it won't move until you insert the key.
I had an app for my 2015 silverado that did the same thing. Ford just picked up on it now?
my 2014 Silverado had it too, came w on star. My 2019 ram has it too and does our new Acura.
Jorge Lopez at Tomball Ford did this same thing a few weeks ago.
Love the video I did not know about the secret key compartment.!
The putting the fob up to your jaw method is a "Ripleys Believe it or not" moment. That's something new! Great presentation. Picking up my F-150 tomorrow actually!
Man, thanks! And congrats on your new ride! 🥳 🎉
just traded my 2005 fx4 in for 2019 Lariat. Thanks for the tips. Question, is there a shift interlock switch hidden somewhere. Mine went out in the 2005 and if not for youtube I may have been stranded.
I found it...the little slot/tray to the right of the shifter. Pull it out and then there is a little access panel.
Just bought a 2019 xlt from world ford in Pensacola the 29th. Lovin’ it!
How's it been riding ?
Just picked mine up Saturday. Just noticed paint is bubbling and the damn 5.0 whines like hell 😭
Great video. Thanks and I hope you continue to make them on ford trucks and SUV’s. Entertaining and informative
Yes, informative......just like the owner's manual that also has the same information. If only people knew how to read the manual, soooo many people could be helped......
Owned a Lariat for years and never knew about the interior sensors! Nice!
The key flob works when you put it next to your head because of the water in your head which makes the range go farther
just bought a new 2019 ford f150 STX yesterday love the truck
Ken Ransom me too with fx4 package. 2.7 TT. Love this truck
Thanks for the information, Video taught me some new tricks.
I've been looking at "extra" features for my F150 Lariat and your's was the most informative. I just had my batteries in my key fob fail and it took me some time to find the secret area to put my key on a push button start. I'll have to have some fun with the extra distance on finding my truck with the "under the chin move"
Clue for key fob, and battery-change. Owner's manual. Read it.
Extended range by the fob/under/chin method works by using the body as an antenna amplifier. The human body absorbs some RF frequencies and 'channels' them which is the basic principle of how touch-buttons work. By putting the remote near/touching a body part, it amplifies the frequency of the signal.
Ok? You just explained it how everyone imagined it
Also sleeping with a aluminum foil hat on works as well 😳
But aren’t you touching it to begin with? It’s in your hand.
@@olsen204checkmate 😆 maybe the saliva in your mouth bounces around the frequency and you know the rest
Great video! Thank you for the info.
Sweet! Thanks! Never knew these tricks!
Nice, How about something useful like, global windows down and up with the remote?
Forscan
Secret compartment No longer a secret....Thank you!
Heck yeah just went outside and did the unlock set adjust feature. I had no idea about that super awesome!
Thank you for the great video 👍🏼
Man yeah! Glad we could help! 👊🏻
Nice tips thanks for sharing this great video
I love how Ford is the only company that gives you key code access. Don’t know why other companies haven’t picked up on this. We use ours all the time
I think they have a patent on it.
It is disappointing to see the new Ranger only offering this as an option. It should be included as standard at least on the Lariat. I hope this is not a sign as to the direction Ford is heading. I use the key pad all of the time and also, if you have kids, they can run out to the car and get something without having to ask you for keys and there is no way they can drive off.
The key code has a couple more advantages that I found out about - I used to have a hideout key for the house. Now I can use the key code to access the garage door opener. Also when hiking in a group, if someone gets back earlier than me (which happens often) they can get into the truck. The group really loves my F150 with all the room in the crewcab.
@@martinchen3838 why wouldn't you give them the key if they rode with you?
I have a 2014, but I'm definitely
going to get myself a 2015 or newer in the next five years.
that makes no sense unless its not deplete your cash flow n coursing dept
Don’t do it! I’ve driven all the new ones and they have problems, and the seat lumbar support pushes into your back permanently.
great info.. I purchased a platinumf150 in May brand new 2019... salesman informed me of none of these features
I just bought a new ford and i’ve talked to 2 different for dealers, neither told me any of this info and both of them wanted to charge me $25 to get my door code. awesome video
this is knowledge, if you were in michigan id buy my truck from you. job well done!
I haven't read comments yet, but this works on the 2018 lariat!! Its 8 at night and I had to try this out... love the seat adjustment feature using the unlock buttons! Granted I have a button for driving and use another for entering/exiting..
Clue: Owner's Manual. Read it.
Second clue: Owner's manual says to use the dash display, select Advanced Features, then select, Easy Entry/Exit.
thank you for showing these features I have a 219 F250 Lariat-- and it is similar to the F150 stuff you showed
When u use your chin with the remote your entire body works as an "extension antenna" for the remote.
I wonder it that negatively impacts your body, like if it electrocutes your brain just a tiny bit and kills brain cells.
