I'm sure this has been covered a thousand times, but how many renew your Bluecruise? Pros and cons? Any advise would be greatly appreciated!

I'm sure it's been well over a thousand at this point. The general consensus is that it depends. If you have a 2021 Job 1, it may be worth it at the $600 for 3 years price. But since you have a 2023, you're looking at $800/year. The VAST majority of owners here are not willing to pay that. But it's really up to you if you see enough value in it to justify the high price tag.

I use it more a novelty than as a tool or convenience. Too much money to pay for amusement.

I renewed mine at the $600/3 year price. I use it all the time on road trips on interstates. I love it and am really hoping they get this BC 1.4 OTA rolled out before my subscription expires🥴. It comes in handy when eating sandwiches.

I debated long and hard with myself if it was worth the $600 for 3 years. Since in the next year or two we plan to take several long distance trips I decided I was worth a $600 gift :p

800 a year no way. It’s comical. @Ford Motor Company is trippin and I want the drugs they on. 😂
I won’t lie I use it in highway, since I have it. But I will not miss it for 800 a year or 75 a month. They offer me 600 a year for 3 years again sure. But other wise later blue cruise

If you sub and they break it again via OTA that auto installs, you're on the hook for the dealer to fix their broken OTAs. 4 hours of labor will set you back ~$600 additionally so buyer beware.

I paid the $600/3yr because of the hype of BC 1.4 coming SOON. Still not here :rolleyes:

I have 83000 miles on my 21 and will drive it for another 2 yrs and then it's likely gonna get traded off.

I like the car, I do not like the way Ford has handled the OTA process at all. Slow, buggy and inconsistent

I did the $600 for three years. I recently tried Tesla FSD(12.x) while my wife's car had the demo and without question prefer BC 1.0 I do enough highway driving to appreciate BC fully.

In addition to that BC had not been working for months, but no mention about partial refund in the subscription.

It's still too buggy. If they can ever roll out the latest version and it works without interruptions, then it might be worth renewing. But $800/year is ridiculous. I'm not willing to buy promises.

Just let mine expire, $800 is crazy. Now if I have a 3 week summer road trip sometime could I maybe be persuaded to pay for a month at $70? Probably. One month and cancel for a big trip. But for me that might come up once every few years.

my trial expired 12/31/23, ford just had a saleperson call me to offer me the special $600/3Y price i already knew i had for being a job1 2021, told them no thanks

likely shows a lot of people are not subscribing so they are trying to push the product a bit more
