Tool Kit Missing?
Just got my 2009 F150 XLT - really enjoying the truck. I was looking for my fuel funnel that goes into the capless filler neck, and the manual says its under the rear seat in the compartment where the tool kit is. Well I found the funnel, but there's nothing else in that space.
Did they forget to give me something?

I think the tool kits only come on chevy trucks since they spend a lot of time on the side of the road broken down. No tool kit in the ford - the manual is probably referring to the tire jack which is also underneath the rear seat.

Okay...just out of curiosity, what is the fuel funnel for? I'm sure if I tore my manual apart I could find it there but my dealer never briefed me on it. Can one of you really smart guys give me a quick tutorial on it.

I think it would allow you to add fuel using a jerry can as it will open the capless part of it. Otherwise, you're not going to dump fuel into your truck when you're stuck on the side of the road using a normal can.
