I never thought I would need the Owners Manual that is available on the truck big screen but it turns out that that was a great idea by Ford. I came out of the movie theater at 10pm last night to find my left rear tire was flat. I do have road side assistance but I also have a full size spare. I know that roadside assistance would have been the easiest but if I went that route I probably would not have got home until after 2am . I simply pulled up the Owners Manual on the truck big screen and 15 minutes later we were on our way. I picked up a big screw but it looks repairable.

It feels like there are an unusually high number of flat tire reports for such a new vehicle with of course new tires. I wonder if they are kind ot light duty, for efficiency maybe?

My flat was caused by a 1/4" screw right through the tread. I did notice that the side walls do seem thinner than I am used to. Might be why tire pressure is 42psi?

Yes, this is the third flat tire thread.
