That is about what I paid for a second FOB when my 2021 came with only one.
Fortunately, Ford recognized that the phone as a key was unreliable and started sending two FOBs with the car.
They were gracious enough to send me a check for the amount I paid for my second FOB.
I had never thought about putting the car in park first before turning it off. When it is stopped, I just turn off power and walk away, then the car locks itself after your key is out of range.
I have never liked paying for navigation. I get along with Waze or Apple and there is not charge for updates.
Manufactures of EVs should never charge for updates to Navigation.
I like the electronic buttons on the MME.
When I bought my MME in 2021 the volume switch only controled volume. Now it controls, volume, temperature, and blower speed.
That's the value of having over-the-air updates.
It really depends on whether you like it, have charging capability at home, and trouble free.
If the three points are not satisfied, I guess you should take the loss now.
I had a career in programming, so I wouldn't attempt hacking the Ford's software.
1. Ford's staff has enough problems insuring they don't tread on Apple carplay and Android apps.
2. Ford staff doesn't know about any hacks to their code and would quite likely damage the hack on an update.
Too...
I would get the recalls done because there is no money involved.
If you’re satisfied with the 2021, then keep it. Not much of a difference from 2021 and 2023.
You don’t say what your payments are now, but if they are close to $775, then the switch might make sense.
I agree with you about the dealer. I also bought a 2021 MME.
I had the windshield replaced on a recall, and a door sensor replaced under warranty.
The only other cost to me was a $49 tire rotation at 10,000 miles.
I would like to state three examples where Ford went beyond the average...
It's part of what you were asking. Avoid charging in the upper range at charge/min
stations, because the upper ranges 60%, 70% and 80% get slower so you charge/min will be costly.
I have read most of the data on charging stations on this forum.
The problem is, it's a moving target when it comes...
This not a bug but should be labled as 12 volt battery.
It is indeed the 12 Volt battery, but if you click on " View all Vehicle details", the next page shows charge levels for the main battery. The percentage should also be there, but that's on Fordpass.
I agree, since added miles is known and the cost is known, then a less confusing statistic would be cost per mile.
I know if I get 25 miles per gallon on an Ice car and the cost per gallon is $3.50. that is meaningful.
Miles per dollar would be meaningful.
At home it is pretty easy because I...
This post is the best I have read on the forum.
It shows that the adapter works on Tesla, the cost on Tesla, and the comparison of cost to a Tesla vehicle.
This is something I've been waiting for and expected.
Tesla is not going to give away their advantage to non-Teslas.
Than you.
Sometimes complexity comes with troubles. I have used Phone-as-a-key but never password to start the car. Phone-as-a-key went south after the first update.
FORD updates and Apple updates are not coordinated, so I went with the trusty FOB.
I have plenty of room in my pocket to carry the FOB, so I...
