Quite frankly I can't trust a single thing Ford says on the future of EVs after what they just pulled with the lightning and they have done nothing here to make me feel differently about it.
I'd happily keep mine, but they will have to offer a market adjustment of some kind. If they are going to re-sell it for a loss anyways, why not just cut out the extra steps.
Some of the drawbacks are the reason why I chose the lightning over it the first time, but I won’t go back to a gas vehicle. I’ve been fully electric for almost a decade.
I got a survey today from Ford about BlueCruise. It talked about new features and different pricing tiers and what I would prefer (Things like pricing tiers to unlock more features or daily purchase options). It looks like they might be re-evaluating how to best get more uptick for the product.
I really wish they would allow you to set the default behavior of the knob. I already have volume control on the steering wheel, so I'd prefer it default to temp as that is the most annoying to change while driving and having to press the screen first and then use the knob doesn't help much.
