Correct, added and charged (truck is not built yet and no window sticker available .but shows as a charge on my order form).To be clear, you added the 360° camera package to your 502A order and were charged for it, correct? If so, that sucks for UnderTheRadar; means he doesn’t have the 360 cameras in his expensive 502A.
Bottom line: 502A package does not specifically state that it includes the 360° Cameras. If it did, Ford would probably make an effort to advertise it (it’s a selling point to get you to upgrade to 502A). So I retract my previous assertion.
That said, I think my counter reasoning is sound and could easily confuse a salesman or customer (like me).
• 502A includes CoPilot 360 Assist.
• 500A/501A customers have to get the 360 Cameras in order to install CoPilot 360 Assist.
• Therefore, an F-150 with CoPilot 360 Assist must also have 360 Cameras, right?
➜ False assumption on my part, I guess. Ford is then just making 500A/501A customers unnecessarily buy the cameras if they also want to have CoPilot Assist 2.0. I mean, I would’ve bought the cameras anyway. Still.
I go back to a point I made earlier: There has to be a clearer way for Ford to communicate better with their customers - this is unnecessarily confusing. Maybe in the package summary, 502A should state that the Cameras are not included with CoPilot Assist 2.0 (just like the Tow Mirror clarification is stated in the Trailer Tow package and Max Trailer Tow package). Heck, we still don’t know what’s in 53A that isn’t in 17T (Lariat PBs) that provides the additional 4K-lbs of towing capacity.
Are the 360 cameras a part of the copilot assist? I thought the copilot assist was done via the sensors around the vehicle when moving to assist with blind spot detection, not the cameras which are used at low speeds when backing up, parking, etc for the driver to visually see the area around the truck.
