That's a good analogy ... if there were only 3 keyways that opened every Ford vehicle in the past 15 years ... or if dashing into an unlocked car were even remotely similar to removing wheels. Opening an unlocked door and stealing whatever is there is easy, impulsive, and requires no prep...
I wouldn't bother with the wheel locks. Nobody who was ever going to jack up a car and steal wheels was ever deterred by these universal wheel locks. They'll be about as effective as a lucky rabbit's foot or some other superstition.
It's no less legal than every horn on a semi truck. States generally have a generic law around excessive noise of horns, but they're usually ambiguously written and there aren't different horn laws that govern passenger vehicles and tractor trailers. It's sort of like the generic "disturbing...
What planet do you live on where you believe that Ford gets to allow or disallow what a YouTube content creator says or does? That's not how that works. Ford, and companies like it, do not get to control the content of people providing reviews on their products and services.
On Ford's...
I ordered it because it was $150 MSRP and probably closer to $130 X-Plan. I knew that it was effectively impossible for me to add it after-the-fact. I thought it was a nice feature, but didn't know if my wife would want it (it's her rig). I ordered it. My wife removed it on Day 5 and it's...
About 3 months ago, I disabled the start/stop feature on our BL using the information here in this forum. Works like a charm. Got rid of seat belt chimes, any other chime I could get my hands on, added bambi lights, and so on. All for $0.00.
Wow, what a master-class in so many issues that are prevalent across so many threads here (and at other forums):
As others have pointed out, this is the issue. The ordering process is confusing and there are many ways to get it wrong. The 360 vs 360+ isn't always intuitive. There is also...
Before you get too carried away buying a new battery, you need to check your warranty. Your factory battery is covered by the 3/36 warranty and you may still have that coverage in play.
The official Ford emblem they use is $40 (they give the PN in the description). They have another $5-$10 in materials with paint, 3M adhesive, and other things used during the manufacture. They have another 30 minutes in labor at ~$70/hr grossed up. That's $40 + $5 + $35 = $80 in their cost...
I bought my BL and it was over $5K below the sticker (MSRP). So, I'd say pass on this one, unless it's your dream BS. Otherwise, you can order exactly what you want and get the same deal you posted pretty much any time you want. $4K is a good deal but it's not so good that you should...
Looks like a great build and you'll have one of the first BSs built in 24 MY.
I've had 3 Ford vehicles with moonroofs and 3 Ford vehicles with severe moonroof issues. My experience has been awful and I won't have another. I ordered my 2019 F-350 specifically to not get a moonroof and did the...
Wow, I'm shocked to see all the vitriol against rebates ... even one that flat out stated that rebates were crap.
I guess, I'll be the contrarian in the room. I love rebates. I love paying less, but I guess that makes me the oddball.
I ordered my BS at a time when there weren't that many...
Don't count that 3rd hour. There's nothing magical about the Ford USB stick. It will take the same amount of time to update your BS, regardless of the source of the USB stick. So, when comparing the two paths, ignore that 3rd hour you included.
For $40, Ford will send you a physical USB stick with the files pre-loaded. Plug-and-play. Some people have difficulty formatting their USB stick and dropping the downloaded files in the proper location. The maps are 12 GB, too, so some people don't want to download these files. My dad, for...
And you should enjoy those things. It doesn't matter one bit what I think. I answered this thread, as it asked for opinions ... but none of what I typed matters even a little bit.
Why do you believe that the maps update will require you to pay a one-time digital download fee?
Short story: I encourage people to upgrade maps. Sync updates haven't done much for me over the years, but map updates are significantly better every time.
Long story: I've posted this elsewhere...
