A couple early access people in the MachE forum have been getting a bunch of updates this week so things seem to be on track. I'd imagine that F-150 will start getting those same updates soon too.
Ford has 100 years of experience in knowing what is costs to build a car. Rivian has... 0.
Year over year prices increases on the F-150 or Bronco or Mustang is normal. Ford has even gone out of their way to minimize that impact on Bronco reservations by locking in the MSRP for orders already...
I've been using this and it's been good.

I did need to modify the charger because the iPhone 12 has a big camera bump. You can see my easy fix at the end of that thread.
My Powerboost was built a year ago, long before they offered that option. I have no button. The car controls stop/start automatically based on the needs of the hybrid.
As I mentioned before it's not about the ability to navigate from your home to your destination, change lanes or pass a bike. Tesla, Ford, GM, et al. are not autonomous driving and only Level 2 because you can't stop watching it like a hawk. It's level 2 because you must be ready to take over...
Mercedes is going to have an approved Level3 car this year in Germany.
Interestingly the difference in official definition between Level 2 and higher levels isn't really about the capabilities of the car to drive itself it's really about the amount of trust you can give it and allow the...
Dealers were allowed to prioritize a limited number of orders. Ford left it to them to determine how to pick. Some asked for additional cash. Some rewarded loyal customers. Looks like this dealer just had a lottery.
Pretty sure they mean pump motors for the cooling system. Not removing drive motors.
I guess this is new for Ford (if they say so) but when I worked at a Tier 1 supplier 15 years ago this was literally half the job: value engineering our parts to reduce cost.
For example: removing 1 out of 4...

In my experience and as reported by others (see quote below) the setting only resets if you observe it. Like Heisenberg's Bug, it only...
It probably works for a customer who doesn't have a smart phone but does have an Alexa in their home they use to stream music and want the same in their new car.
Yeah I've seen borders and no borders at various times and various versions of Sync and iOS. It doesn't bother me too much since it's just a pixel or two.
What does bother me are the rounded corners. Not sure who is responsible for that though. Apple might just be sending a black background...
Well I can't say for sure if it was any or all of these. But I turned off wifi, changed my update time to 10pm same day and used the parking brake.
Two days later 2.3.0 was installed.
One note: I think my update schedule had been lost at some point. I had originally set it to a Tuesday...
