Got the TPMS tool a couple days ago, $26.00. I reprogramed the EXPY in under 60 secs. About how long it takes to walk around the truck.

I do agree though, the TPMS is pretty much a pain in the rear in genneral . Then there is the fact that the FORD system takes so long to notify you of a problem, I am not sure what good it is. The GM system is also a pain in the rear, but the GM system does warn you of a problem almost instantly, not a 100 miles later.

 

They do make aftermarket TPMS kits with dash mounts just for trailor and winter tires.

 

Sorry - not exactly true. They were on all F150's up to a given GVW at least in 07 model year. I have a 07 F150 Heavy Half, it does not have TPMS on it because it's over that limit. Checked with the dealer when I bought it, they confirmed it didn't have it because of the max weight limit at that time. The rims I'm running right now don't have TPMS sensors in them, no lights plus I've checked, there's no light in the dash for them.

 

That makes since, F250s and 350 did not have them either. The heavy payload F150 actually has a higher payload rating then a Diesel F250. Didn't think about that effecting the TPMS sensors though, but it does make perfect sense as to why they heavy half 150s don't have them.

 

According to the la passed, anything up to 10,000lb GVW should have a TPMS. That would include all F150s.
