  1. FYI: Can confirm bed camera card works at OTA 2.5.1

    Thanks for clarification! I don't want to mislead anyone but it definitely worked for me under the conditions I listed. Good to note there is a dependency/interaction with the other camera-at-speed mods.
  2. How much does lift / level affect MPG?

    This may be anecdotal but I'll offer this data point: My 2017 RWD Ecoboost I averaged 24-25mpg on freeway doing about 70mph. I could "run up the scoreboard" on MPG if I took 55mph highways and get about 28mpg at that speed. My 2021 4WD Powerboost I absolutely cannot come close to this. I get...
  3. Bluecruise OTA Status?

    I am only on 2.5.1 and yesterday I turned on cruise and got the same bluecruise popup, but no visual difference in my cluster. Presumably because I don't fully have BC yet. Also, I got the "eyes on the road!" warning and my eyes were already on the road. Hopefully again, its because I don't...
  4. FYI: Can confirm bed camera card works at OTA 2.5.1

    Interesting! Can you name your cards? I'm guessing the originals plus bed camera? Zone lighting (useless!) Nav Audio Propower Eco behavior (useless!) [NEW] Bed camera? Zone lighting is useless because I find the cards a convenient way to flip through things while DRIVING. I would not turn...
  5. FYI: Can confirm bed camera card works at OTA 2.5.1

    Question: When you bought the truck, did it have the bed camera card option? When I bought mine, I had the original powerboost cards only - no Trip1/2, no Fuel Economy, no Bed Camera. So are you saying that newer updates enabled the full set of cards without any forscan mods?
  6. FYI: Can confirm bed camera card works at OTA 2.5.1

    I don't remember (there are so many) which thread that someone asked when OTA update the cameras in motion start working for Job1 trucks. I used Forscan to enable them on mine, and I added the "Bed Camera" card at the same time. While cameras in motion worked, the card did NOT work, so I...
  7. Bluecruise OTA Status?

    I feel like we're on the exact same schedule. My fordpass says my 2.5.1 will install tonight (I have updates set to 1am).
  8. Final Steps to Bluecruise email

    I'm loving the progress updates here! I had the "Bluecruise!" email, and got 2.4.3 the next day. Was stuck on that for over a week, then got 2.4.4. Just today I got 2.4.5, so we're all in this together on the big leap to 2.5.1! Personally I have my update time set to 1am every night...
  9. Pro Trailer Back up Assist

    Who/what/how was it fixed? Was it one of the recent OTA updates or did you do it yourself with FDRS and manual updates?
  10. Android widget

    Ok this was a crazy surprise but I put a trickle charge on my battery last night and left the hood open. The truck icon has a red hood now!
  11. Battery level impact on OTA success

    Great idea! I'm going to connect my trickle charger tonight so that my 1am scheduled update check sees the trick charge voltage. See if that gets me past 2.4.3.
  12. Bluecruise OTA Status?

    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...
  13. Android Auto random disconnects and reconnects

    I've had my new phone (galaxy s22 ultra) for 35 days and I finally got my first random android auto disconnect with it. It did automatically reconnect in about 20 seconds, as usual with my old phone too. So it does not appear to be phone specific.
  14. Final Steps to Bluecruise email

    Yep, I've been on 2.4.3 since Monday and have updates checked 1am every morning. C'mon let's get this thing done!
  15. Forgive the newbie towing question... Powerboost vs Passport Ultra Lite Grand Touring

    In my opinion this (https://www.granddesignrv.com/showroom/2022/travel-trailer/imagine-xls/floorplans/17mke) is the perfect spacious layout and specs for going solo with a dog. There was a youtube couple that did a year in one towing it with a jeep SUV. The full size bathroom and huge kitchen...
  16. Final Steps to Bluecruise email

    Uh oh, I'm a little worried about the "when speed limit dropped" part. I'm hoping that BC does not force us to drive at the limit, and that it is not using optical sign recognition and rather is using GPS/map based limits? Here in California the optical recognition is not good because after...
  17. Final Steps to Bluecruise email

    People have said that if you pull up the Fordpass app and open the map, BC enabled roads are red.
  18. Final Steps to Bluecruise email

    Well since state-of-charge actually *is* just the voltage translated through a battery I-V curve, then your external charger might just trick the state-of-charge calculation based on whatever voltage it outputs. I'd be interested to know if that works! Mine made it up to 2.4.3 last night and I...
  19. Didn't opt for the Tow Mirrors... Alternatives???

    Can vouch for the Snap n Zap clip over mirrors. I had them on my '17 and used only when towing. The extended mirror only vibrates a little so they are very useable. I read many reviews about the various clip on ones and it seems impossible to get rid of the vibration and if they vibrate your...
  20. Bluecruise OTA Status?

    Got it as well! Hopefully we're now in, and next the waitlisted and on to the rest of us Job1'ers!
