I have a 2015 F250 with the 6.2 motor. So far it exceeds my expectation. I previously owned a 6.4 F350. I do miss seeing the trailer brake intensity as I brake. Is there a display that shows how much brake is being applied? By the way I average 10.5 mpg pulling 10,000 lbs! Thats hand calculated.

 

If you tap the + or - button on the controller it will show up but it doesn't stay, I've never tried it but through the information screen you can select the brake controller and I think it stays on.

You can change the brake effort in the information center menu if you have one. The effort is light by default. I found heavy with 2.5 output to work best with my 8000lb 5th wheel.

 

You can change the screen in the dash to the trailer brake screen that shows the trailer name and all that info and there is a display bar that shows how much brake is applied to the trailer as you step on the pedal.

 

Which screen? Also does the brake info appear only when being applied or is the screen always active when the trailer is being towed?

 

Go to truck apps and its the second window "trailer" screen.

 

Good info. Will real time braking effort pop up on the trip screen as you drive and apply the brake?

 

Found the info. But does not show on either of the other screens.

 

Was that what youbwere looking for? The brake intensity?

 

Yes while towing. Would like to watch MPG and trailer braking as brakes are applied.

 

I don't even want to see the fuel mileage screen while towing lol i don't like like looking at it when I'm not towing lol these trucks are far from frugal whsn it comes to fuel.
