What Feature do You Rarely Use, Yet Highly Value?

[CameraCarl]

The keyless entry keypad on the B Pillar ( which I hear Ford is starting to delete on other models).

Yes, it was changed and now it’s the HVB SOC…

Ah. I stand corrected.

How about the easy-access 12V jump point? Uh… Oops! ??

Brilliant, now this one has been high on my ’to do’ list but all of the tutes on that involve drilling a couple of holes & adding caps in the cover aprox. above the the + & - signs.

Now this one looks very different & possibly more convenient. I found the product here: https://www.organizedobie.com/ez-charge-battery-charging-units.html
But am a little unclear as to how that might be fitted? I assume this requires a cable run from the 12v terminals under the hood. Any tips appreciated.

So how do you hook it up to the 12V? Thanks.

Unfortunately, the LVB soc display was fixed a short while back. It now displays what it was supposed to display from the start. Now we need them to intentionally add the LVB soc back to the page. Or better yet, put it in an app on the car main display (sync screen) somewhere.

As important as that battery actually is to us, you'd think they'd want us to know about its health.

As for rarely use and highly value, remote start. i rarely use it because it takes so long to start I'm usually already at the car by the time it would start.

What is one feature that your car has that you use rarely, but highly value and would be annoyed if @Ford Motor Company removed?
For me, it’s the entry keypad. While I don’t use it too often, it’s a great feature to have and the times I have used it, it’s been incredibly convenient. I hope the @Ford Motor Company decontenting Gods never touch this feature!

I agree with keypad, my family all have Ford products and set the keypad to the same code, very convenient for transferring things between us.

Needs a 12v battery soc, right there on the HUD, surely? Even el cheapo MG EVs provide this.

Well, the welcome lighting really. ‘Rarely used’ because they rarely work for no apparent reason.

The slow, AC wall power charger. Useful in a pinch when travelling, charge overnight at a motel etc.
