2005 Question
The 2005 overview on the front page said this "the new “stationary elevated idle control” feature is now included in the strategy of all Super Duty powertrains.
This replaces the auxiliary idle control kit and auxiliary powertrain control module that was optional in the 2004 model year. "
Does this mean it comes on all 2005's? If so, how do you operate it?
I'm looking at Lariet F-250 4x4, diesel, SB, CC. I would like the idle controller not for PTO, but for giving my trailer batteries a quick charge - I'm getting tired of having to throw my briefcase onto the accelerator pedal
Thanks

Yes, I'm sure it is. I'm test driving someone else's new truck and the OM is still in a sealed plastic bag. I'm not going to rip it open. Hence the questions to the group.
Drove another F250 today and a Chev 2500 back to back. To me the Ford seemed noisier, but rode better. The F seemed to just drive, the C seemed to have a skittish-ness at slow speed and have a very herky jerky throttle. Had the Stone (a dark gray) F-250 truck they had in stock been white, I could have had an expensive afternoon.
