Remote Parking/park assist?

[reffahcs]

That will be sad. I use the keypad every day, multiple times. I use it to lock it. I always leave the key in the vehicle. Actually, I have never taken it out in a year but maybe once when following instructions to get updates to work, but, the updates work fine with the key in it and unlocked. I'm betting a lot of folks don't know they can lock it by pushing the bottom 2 buttons.

Maybe I'm missing something since I'm late to the part, but leaving the key in your car doesn't seem like a great idea? I would figure most people would want their keyfob as far away as possible from their vehicles? Thinking about all the RF replay attacks on cars and "key present" detection? But then again, maybe it doesn't matter if Ford didn't build any protection against this stuff.

I don't use this feature every day, but I do like it. I do like how it's implemented on MME better. The keypad is invisible until you actually use it.

Different strokes I guess, but I much prefer the physical, tactile buttons. It makes accurately finding and using the buttons just more pleasant.

There is no remote park feature. It's in the original owners manual but not in the trucks.

Park assist is for parallel parking and allegedly works well but as said above, a little quick.

Does anyone know WHY the Lightning doesn't come with Remote Parking? This truck is a technological marvel, it seems strange this one thing isn't included. I wonder if it could be give to us with an OTA update?

WHY

Probably people running themselves over.
