  1. Will you renew BlueCruise?

    If they can turn bitch mode off, yeah i'd subscribe. I hate the way it nags. Not that it nags, it's the way that it nags, it's so passive aggressive. Tesla nags are more effective
  2. We need a snow driving mode

    "Snow Mode" could also disable all the alerts that my cameras and sensors are frozen over, and maybe even change the color of the screen to remind me that my sensors are useless instead of beeping at me every few seconds. Point is, having a single button toggle to do these things would be a...
  3. Electrical system drain Service required message

    "What is an electrical system drain" and how does one service it, with an insulated plunger? English - many interpretations - maybe I just need another cup of coffee.
  4. Stay in SPORT when truck turned off

    Slightly OT: Why does changing modes interrupt any Carplay/android music that might be playing? But yeah, FORD seems to be overridden with lawyers or fear of regulation - This is an iconic vehicle - it is THE quintessential poster child for American Freedom - it is an F150 after all - and...
  5. Smoked side windows. Not tinted with a film?

    Did you get the $115 on top of some other infraction, or did you get pulled over because five-oh saw your dark windows and thought "That guy's breakin' the law" - because if it's the latter, then you're gonna still get pulled over if you figure out a way to tint your glass without film. Cop's...
  6. Driver Alert Hates Me

    Yeah, let's not talk about the CT. There's a learning curve to each brand of driver assist and as the OP pointed out, even differences with the same brand sometimes. The learning curve for me on the Lightning is still going on( 2 yrs now) where the Tesla I pretty much had figured out in a few...
  7. Driver Alert Hates Me

    Thankfully no! I do see value of driver assist features like blue cruise, supercruise, FSD, Etc... On the Ford, with BlueCruise enabled, it shifts one mental workload for another and they are not equal - meaning, on a long trip, it takes some of the driving workload away from me, but that is...
  8. Driver Alert Hates Me

    It's more stressful to drive with nanny mode on. When my free BluesClues trial expires in a few months, Ford expects me to start paying them so I can be scolded. Something doesent sit right about that. Like road rage, but at my own car lol. Having driven Teslas autopilot, I have to say thier...
  9. Rock Lights installed

    Did you mean "squat"?
  10. ECG-24.2.5.6.2 Technical Adj of Send/Rcv Software [24.2.5.6.2.2]

    Mine has said not completed for a week at least. Wish I knew how to unstick it.
  11. $200 48amp Amazon charger

    FWIW, I'm OK with OP using this thing - just check up on the plug FREQUENTLY. I've had a LEGIT brand (GE) charger melt the outlet. Someone noted "cheap Home Depot" outlet - yeah, best to get something better than consumer grade 14-50R, but even then, check those contacts - unplug ang plug it...
  12. Fordpass app shows wrong location

    Thanks! I will check this - just got it back from service and I noticed a ton of other settings were not as I left them prior to module SW updates.
  13. Fordpass app shows wrong location

    When I use my fordpass app to show my trucks location, it always shows parked it my home driveway. Other features of the app work, but the location is wrong. Maybe I am expecting it to show the trucks location and not it's home location.
  14. Its fall in the NE and the squirrels are out!

    On my daily commute, I drive on a 1 mile section of road that runs beneath a beautiful canopy of old oak trees, home to squadrons of trained squirrel accorn wielding bombadeers. The acorns they drop from 20 ft are not hard enough to crack the windshield but do manage to dent the aluminum frunk...
  15. Cat paw trapped in the tailgate clamp pocket

    Few options.. 1. Piece of heavy duty black duct tape.. Not ideal, I know. 2. A thin small black coarse head screw, maybe a drywall screw or thinner - hand screw it in the corner opposite the hinge. It'll keep the flap shut without damage and when you need to use the pocket, just twist it out.
  16. Tesla chargers not showing up in Ford Nav or Charge assist

    I noticed after a recent software update that a lot of chargers I use regularly are not showing up, and a lot more Ford dealers. After drilling into menus on the NAV app, I saw that the default was set to "Ford network only". Unchecked that box and selected "roaming chargers" and now I see...
  17. Unknown Wire harness by OBDII

    I found one on my 22'. But it was not wired like that, looked more like a bt odb2 dongle, except it had an lte Sim inside.
  18. Bluecruise warning after 5 seconds?

    One additional thought, what happens if you are *actually* incapacitated/passed out during BC session? Does it go back to regular mode, or does it slow down and gently pull over and put the hazards on like Tesla?
  19. Bluecruise warning after 5 seconds?

    I agree with OP - 5 seconds is too short. BC does not account for peripheral vision, which is superior to detecting moving things - that tech is just not there yet.
