How much of your own time did it take to apply this updates yourself? Curious to see if I want to embark on that.
Over 7 hours spread over 2 days.. And I was starting from OTA 2.4.3, Some are stuck at 1.7.1. Or worse. Add a couple more hours if that is you.

After SW updates then some have to deal with configuration issues. Ford config forgets you have running boards installed. Me. Others have also had to tweak the configuration to enable cameras at speed. Mine worked.

I have no idea how Ford fixes those with OTA. I am closely watching for OTA Bluecruise update successes to see how those are handled.

Just ignore him, all he wants to do is whine and complain about BC not working on his truck. Just check his post history....

I'm not sure what the joke is. I'm pretty sure in the FDRS thread where people are applying the BlueCruise updates themselves someone confirmed the stickers for trailer were working. But since it's a 210 page thread at this point, hard to track down that one post.
I have a job 1 platinum. I did all the updates myself with FDRS and can confirm the trailer stickers now work and the bed camera card is now displayed in sync. Only cost me $500 for programming cable and a 30 day license to FDRS. Its not hard to do. Bluecruise is Awesome!

Man, I had 2 updates in 2 days that got me up to 2.4.3, after I got the "BlueCruise!" email. I thought I'd be getting 1-a-day to get me that sweet, sweet Job1 BC and bed camera.

9 days later I'm still on 2.4.3. Not sure if any others paused here with me or just blew past it? Wanted to check before I try dealer. Was hoping to give it the ole test drive on my commute next week to the bay area.

Same here. I got 2.4.3 either 8 or 9 days ago and crickets since.

What the heck is all this fuss about Bluecruise not working? I’m hoping they get the wrinkles out come June. Selling my Tesla for the Lightning. When I’m tired and get behind the wheel in Tesla, autopilot easily takes 75% of the stress off of driving tired. I’m guessing with Bluecruise, if it works, will be the same or better.

Let's have a zoom party for 6/30 so we can have the same feedback on how they missed Q2-2022 for the 3rd or 4th straight quarters.

I received an email from Ford early access that the dealer will be able to install BlueCruise on Friday.
