Is anyone else seeing this? I emailed my dealer this morning and haven't heard back yet - hopefully they will have some insight.

@TaxmanHog I checked a few window stickers above and below your sort line, but I haven't found another one with this feature delete on our spreadsheet.

Oh - that isn't good. the scales are the only part of the tow tech package that interests me (I don't tow)

The 360 camera is nice, but I may actually rather have the scales vs the camera if given the option.

I thought the onboard scales were needed for route mapping with loads and towing?
That was my understanding as well.

I wonder if this was a keying error by the sales manager when inputting/adjusting your order?

Would be my guess.

I cannot imagine ford decided 1 random truck so far doesn't get the feature due to supply (they would just wait for the supply); especially sure a core feature in the tow tech package....

I don't remember an option to add or delete scales. I'm pretty sure every trim has the scales ass standard.

Not every trim - it is part of the Tow Technology package.

Thanks for clarifying that. When I went back to look at VINs, I didn't check to see if they will had that. But I saw the scales on every version of the truck that I pulled up. I must have got lucky and pulled all the that course it.

I will be extremely disappointed if I lose this feature or others when by the time my build occurs. It is going to be a barebones truck before long.
