I don't carry the FOB either because it's bulky as heck, but I did have one day when the PAAK just crapped out. Rebooted the phone and everything...No go. Luckily i had setup the keypad and a the passcode to start the vehicle, otherwise I would have been stranded. I keep one fob hidden in the...
You've come to the right place! My primary driver is a '21 MYP and my work truck in a '24 Lariat Lightning!
They are two completely different vehicles with completely different characteristics and capabilities. Your literal Apples and Oranges.
What you'll love about the Lightning:
The super...
Someone at Ford wrote that language and description. Maybe they made a mistake showing it in my Connected Services tab for my Lightning, but it's clearly something they have been thinking about and doing for at least those 2023 Mach-Es.
I agree, the one-time payment I'm ok with, similar to the Tesla battery capacity example. I am very anti-subscription for anything like this. There is no way that a 360 camera system is deserving of a subscription, but clearly from the screenshot I provided, Ford gave 2023 Mach-E 90-day trials...
I own rental properties and there isn't a single matching cap in any one of my 14 A/C units. I have the entire suite of the Turbo Caps, they're awesome.
Oh, no worries! Frankly I hate it when in an HMI it detects that you want to do something that you don't have enabled and it doesn't:
A) Offer the option to enable it right then and there or
B) Present a button taking you to the place in the menu with the setting or
C) At least give you...
Very nice! That's a quick afternoon project to keep in mind (other than the drying time on the Herculiner). Oh, and I see that Turbo 200 Cap hiding in there...
I will chime in as others have. I purchased my warranty through Granger last year and couldn't be more satisfied. Easy, fast, and saved $1000s off what my selling dealer offered. I just wish they covered Teslas!
Yeah, the "glitch" as you describe it is exactly where I think they're going. Seeing if we will tolerate being nickeled and dimed for subscriptions. Not sure why they think this will go over well. BMW tried it with subscription charges for heated seats and Tesla tried with a one-time fee to...
Does it show the Connected Navigation feature in the app? If so, it should show you when the trial expires AND a green bar saying ACTIVE.
If you see an active (unexpired) trial, then go into the menus in the truck to make sure that Connected Navigation is turned on. If you have an active...
At delivery my 3-year Connected Nav trial did not get activated. As the dealer was walking me through the basics on the truck we couldn't get navigation to come up at all. That's how I stumbled across the fact that in 2024 models if you don't pay for the Connected Nav subscription, Ford...
I'm not trying to dissuade you in any way and I hope you get it.
This is a situation of incompetence on the part of the selling dealer. You asked for it, you even showed them the info, but they couldn't figure it out. They should have contacted Ford at that time. Since they did not, they...
This is not a question of code as the plug is installed to code. It is simply the responsibility of the end user that plugs any device into any plug that the device does not draw more current than the circuit is capable of providing.
I understand why you want to talk to Ford to confirm this, but I don't believe you are going to like the answers:

In a nutshell, you can only purchase lifetime at time of sale for purchases made on or after...
I don't have any experience with BlueCruise and automatic lane changes, but my Teslas are very conservative with lane changes. It always leaves plenty of room for lane changes and actually uses the turn signal so you know before it starts making the move. With the most recent release, if you...
I appreciate your perspective and that you find BlueCruise useful. I am coming from the experience with a 2021 Tesla MYP with HW3 and a late 2023 Tesla MY with HW4. I do have true handsfree in these vehicles with the in-car camera. It certainly isn't flawless, but has performed better IMHO...
Holy cow, sorry about your identity theft. That's one of the worst I have heard about.
We are at risk of back sliding on some of this. I am hopeful that we won't see regression on the data security posture of companies even if the current administration neuters the laws holding the...
