Update: my Carlinkit stopped working. I honestly think Ford did something accidentally or on purpose to disable it. Under the phone list, it was still there, but wouldn't connect, and there was a new "android" item listed that only had an Android auto option, listed below my phone.
I know it's...
I couldn't begin to tell you how I won the lottery, except for one detail. I did join the early access program last year. While this wasn't advertised as an early access release, MAYBE I was bumped to the front of the line?
2023 Lariat ER - I was lucky enough to get the update on the first day they started sending it out. I didn't get a chance to really test it until a few days ago on a 300 mile road trip between the Detroit area and the Indianapolis area.
Living north of Detroit, I took I-94 south to I-75, to the...
Let's be honest, the tax credit is going away soon after January 20th. It's pretty much a given at this point. I'm not trying to get political, it's just the likely truth.
Thank you.
This guy was twice or thrice divorced and not currently married. Had kids, but I don't think he was close to them. Had to make small talk while waiting 30 minutes for the police to show up.
This happened on November 11th. I just got my truck back from the body shop yesterday. Enjoy the crazy video. 50k views on Reddit. *Edit* The video is too big for the forum, so here is the Reddit link. Hopefully that's okay.

Got my update while it was at the dealer's body shop getting finished up from a rear bumper repair. The dashcam footage from that accident is fairly epic - 50k views on Reddit. I'll create a new post with the video soon.
I bet the body shop folks were freaking out when my truck sounded like a...
Got the Ford extended warranty - 10 years, 125,000 miles. I'm on par for the warranty to time out right at that 125k mark. I'm excited where battery tech will be in 2033 and will almost certainly upgrade at early retirement. (age 55)
I have this, it's been pretty good. Today, however, I had 66% SOC and it estimated I would end my 25 mile trip with 88% SOC. It did resolve the estimation to the correct amount in just a few minutes.
Yeah, I double checked, and you're right. I remember one had a switch on the case for either Android Auto or Carplay, but that could be an older model.
Interesting. Doesn't the Carlinkit let you connect via Android Auto as well? I recall some of them gave an option.
I definitely hate that I can't pinch to zoom.
Mine installed in the hour I was working out in the gym. My last few updates have done this. I have the updates set to install at 1 am, but they just install whenever they want!
If you have decent home internet, consider contacting your cell provider and asking for a cell booster. They hook into your home Internet and create a mini cell tower that will allow you to make phone calls, have 4gLTE data, etc.
Might help with your truck updates too, just know that the truck...
