Interesting. My PAAK works.

What did you need to do to setup paak? Is there a prompt in the app? Is there something in the truck?

I think it was on the screen where you pair your phone. I can't remember for sure.

EDIT: That might be to setup the backup code. I think PAAK is set up in the app.

To tell you the truth, I can't remember. I don't plan on using it.

ill have to un-pair, then re-pair. Maybe that will repair the situation. If the wife and two impatient kids (10,12) were not with me I would have fiddled with things there. It was also lunchtime. To go by myself would have necessitated towing a car home....The only problem with not trading in a car with purchase.

Am I missing something. This isy home screen in the app?

If you don't mind, please tell us why do you not plan to use it? I am trying to decide on it myself.

I finally got mine today. They would not sign a purchase agreement or a buyers order for me to send to the parsons. So I had go with their bank of America financing. I plan to refi asap. My dealer also forced their 799 paint and fabric protection.

Least I have my truck.

This is what I did. I went with dealer financing with Cap One during pickup and I'm actively refinancing with Parsons. I signed the paperwork today and I was able to catch the 2.79% rate. Only thing I accidentally wasted was GAP insurance which is oh well.

My tonneau cover arrived today. Leer hf650m (quad fold hard cover so that my brake light and bed camera are still useful when the cover is completely folded). Unfortunately there were no clamps in the box so after waiting for months on the truck, I get to wait days to weeks for this to be resolved. I would have gone with @Realtruck , but they don't list the leer cover. I purchased from everythingaftermarketf150 because they had the best price. We will see how well they can fix problems... Working in a customer service/medical field with the authority to FIX problems to the customer I have empathy for them, but very little patience for not quickly rectifying the situation. I will let everyone know how I like the cover and how well they take care of this situation.

You're missing some stuff.

IIRC, in order for PPAK to work you have to have the FordPass app running as you come up to the truck. With my FOB in my pocket, I can walk up to the truck and not have to take anything out of my pockets to get in it and start it. And FordPass is a battery killer to just let it run all the time.

And the little key symbol on the top of my phone is annoying.

Yes, I'm weird.

I guess I'm weird too, hate seeing apps idling when not in use, I constantly do a "close all apps" command when I am done with something.....

I get you. I think ALL of these points together is more than enough reason to skip PAAK. I was unaware you could walk up to the truck with the fob alone and just open the door. Cool!

I don't plan on using my phone as much as having the ability to enter a pin and having full use of the truck. Without Paak you don't get the full use.

From the 8/15 group… I shipped over a month ago.
It’s been like Christmas Eve / Groundhogs day after day waiting to open presents and it never comes!

True. I'm not deleting my PAAK, I'm just not using it.
