I got some questions about FORscan.
I haven't paid a lot of attention to the FORscan threads.But where do I get it? Do I need a laptop? Can I use my phone? What do I need to have this? And how much does it cost?

I got some questions about FORscan.
I haven't paid a lot of attention to the FORscan threads.But where do I get it? Do I need a laptop? Can I use my phone? What do I need to have this? And how much does it cost?

Here's a quick summary - https://www.ford-trucks.com/article...u-use-it-to-customize-features-and-functions/

1. Forscan.org

2. Yes, laptop for configuration changes/programming

3. There is a Forscan Lite (for phones) but not for programming - https://forscan.org/comparsion.html

4. Laptop with windows, bluetooth or hard-wired ELM/OBD2 adapter, FORScan software

5. Software can be had for free (2-month license registration/renewal process) for programming...but a yearly license fee of $20 bucks for more advanced module features.

To recap:
2025 Platinum Build date 2/25 (likely Job 1) has sticky drive modes
2025 Flash Build date 6/25 (likely Job 2) does not.

We're gonna need more data

2025 Flash Build Date 4/25 VIN suggests Job 2
Drive Mode stays the same across restarts, haven't tested up to 4 hours but it feels about right. Coming back to the truck, say next day, it pops up a brief message asking if I want to switch back to Sport.
