All I want for Christmas is.. a functional front trunk button.

All I want for Christmas is a Mach-E...or how about a scheduled for production date...

Well, if you do, you'll likely get a functional front trunk button before me!

He won’t. But he’ll get a frunk button! ?

I heard the delay in pushing this update is a dispute involving the terminology used.. they need to bring in extra people to figure out how to change the name back to "front trunk" from "frunk"... They have their best men on it!

Shown by the slowing rollout of BlueCruise, promised repeatedly and now next year.

Ummm... Am I missing something?? Last I heard they were sticking with "by the end of the year". Did they announce otherwise?

Not me being overdramatic about this news

They can call it a “front trunk”, a “”frunk”, a “front boot”, a “froot”, a “front storage area” or whatever else they want. Just provide me with e convenient way to open the compartment from outside the vehicle please.

I'm curious if using the Drivers Door Keypad function works for opening the Frunk (I just ordered my Mach e so I can't check).

Enter the factory-set code or your personal code, then press 7·8 on the keypad within five seconds.

?? Well let me rephrase. Either their level of confidence is higher, or they are just exceptionally bad at PR and didn't learn from their mistakes

This, I 100% go with this. Learn from their mistakes, ha!

It does. I accidentally did after I picked mine up. It’s a nice surprise!

I'd really be interested to hear the REAL backstory on the frunk debacle here in the US. Unquestionably some bureaucrat got the idea in their head that they needed to save hordes of children from certain death

Everyone already knows that inside the Mach E frunk lies a portal to the infamous Comet Ping Pong, the Washington DC pizzeria with the back room where Hillary Clinton ran her pedophilia ring. While this ring was craftily hidden away the guise of an online hoax that later gave rise to QAnon, the swift work of Ford engineering to remove the auto-open electronics and insert the frunk divider was all that saved our children from this evil ring.

Only on the newly delivered ones. I tried it on mine and it does NOT work.

Yeah this is almost a month old and they have never met any deadlines when it comes to OTAs so far. We'll see if it actually comes...

Ahh I can help with the translation because I’ve learned to speak “developer”. You see, December is a term that actually means some time in Q1. January is a more general term meaning likely next year. Hope that helps ?

This exactly. "By the end of December" means that it is planned for a sprint that ends there, but it doesn't actually mean that anyone will put in a minute of work to it. And like you said, "January" means in November context that the event takes place in unplanned future, but it is in the backlog.
