Driving into my neighborhood and hear a loud pop (sounded like a shotgun going off or blown tire) now my truck won’t start. Will get a mobile unit to the house tomorrow but any idea what this could be?

Describe “no start”.

Turn key, nothing happens?
Turn key, motor turns over but won’t start?

Were you able to tell if it came from under the hood?
And have you checked under the hood?

It came from under the hood but I don’t see any hoses that are broken and no fluid drips

Sometimes when you run your blinker fluid dry you'll hear a pop like that....

Fuse perhaps? I've heard some pretty loud fuses pop. They didn't sound like a shotgun but did sound like a popper firecracker.

The f150 has a main fuse that's like 200-300 amps. It would pop like that....

Fusible link failure could make a nice sound.

Should of bought a nice used 2020-2022 Tundra w the bulletproof V8. Oh well. Go ahead and empty your wallet on repairing the FORD.

Whatever is is, the part isn’t available and they are working as quickly as they can to resolve the issue with their suppliers. They are sorry for the inconvenience and hope you’ll enjoy these 5 coupons for 20% of an oil change.

So the truck continued to run after you heard the sound, then you stopped and turned it off, and now it won’t start?

Does your instrument cluster light up and go through all the diagnostics?
