Since I already had AT&T, my truck was just adding an additional device. It is $14.94 / month including fees.

I think the biggest blocker to wide acceptance of the Cybertruck is the shape - no way a pipe rack will be made for it. That severely limits the adoption in the trades community. Without that demographic, it will be hard to generate the volume needed to make the ROI work I would think.

Huh. I don’t recall ever seeing that. I will go check - do you have to be connected to a trailer for it to show up?

Where are the trailer tires shown in the dash menu? I have only seen the truck TPMS screen. I have a Platinum.

I hear ya’ - my last truck was an ‘02 F250.

You will get navigation prompts in the dash when using CarPlay navigation, at least with Apple Maps. It also adds a destination location in the SYNC Navigation based on your driving patterns (work in the AM, etc).

Yeah, same for me. My street address is shown several houses down as if the lots were re-numbered during construction or something. There is an app (on iOS at least) called “Map Creator” which is supposed to be how users can submit corrections. I think I read about it in the manual. I have...

Yes, lane assist (on Fords at least) will induce trailer sway by over correcting and creating oscillation. My original TV was an ‘02 F250. This particular TT swayed with the 3/4 ton before I got the Pro Pride. Now I use a Powerboost and can run 70MPH one handed.

Depending on the age of your camper, you might be Ok with the 2.4kW. Worse case you need to get a soft start for it. I have run the 15k BTU AC in my 2020 travel trailer on a 20A freezer outlet in a family member’s garage. I was pleasantly surprised at how low the startup current was - it is...

Did you look into the Pro Pride 3P hitch?

Your friends could also consider a Pro Pride 3P hitch, if all the other numbers are within their truck’s limits. I have a 3P and pull a 7580# 30’ TT with a 720# tongue weight. I had sway issues with my old F250 as well as my F150 due to the light tongue (and I believe close axles also...

Not on my Platinum. I only see this non-informative message. From my recollection, the last message I saw in Ford Pass was the update to 1.4.0. I guess I should not delete the last update message so I can track the version.

I have been told the larger brakes with the Max Tow is why you need to go to 20” wheels. I have a Platinum, so I was at 20” regardless.

Or, if you were my age, the first thought would be “did someone replace my hearing aid batteries?!?” (No, I don’t actually have hearing aids, but those 70s-80s concerts are showing their impact…).

I call us “RV Reservists: one wekend a month, plus 2 weeks once a year” Local weekend trips are what we do most of the time. Once a year we take a major trip. This year is was a 16 day trip to Yellowstone & Grand Teton NPs. We spent 10 days there, so to/from were 3 8-9 hour days each way.

I think you have a well thought out plan; I just don’t think I could pull that off until we both retire. We live in the North Texas area so while I still work our trips are Bee-line to the destination to allow for more time there. Most or our major destinations are a pretty good distance from...

Quieter, integrated into truck, less expensive are all nice features to have.

I think he will reinforce the notion that automobiles can be systems that are refined over time. Ford has set itself up for this model with the SYNC4 system and it’s OTA updates. I believe bringing in Doug shows Ford’s commitment to this new business model by building a leadership team that...

Looks like they are a couple of inches too long to stow in a 5’7” bed though.

I love how they say “not for use with tonneau cover” in the notes, and the picture literally has them in a bed with a tonneau cover on it…
