Mine has expired. With most everyone with unlimited data and hot spots am I missing any perk? I connected my car to my iPhone as a hot spot and watched Today whilst charging.

I let my 30 day trial expire too. I activated the vehicle Wi-Fi hotspot free trial, and when in the garage it gets one bar of the home Wi-Fi. I can watch YouTube there, but I don't know which Wi-Fi it's using. I don't see any difference without Ford Premium Connectivity.

No, you're not.

A hotspot is a hot spot. If you're connected to your home WiFi, then watching Youtube in your garage, besides being strange, is using your home WiFi.

Yes, you are.
You’re missing out on paying the fee for something you don’t need.

BTW, I hate the fact that everything needs a subscription now. I’m glad my blinker subscription is still valid.

You're telling me. I'm old enough to remember when software was a 1-time purchase. ?

? Been off work a couple weeks recovering from surgery. When I get bored I go down and play with the car settings and watch videos of Mach-E stuff. I’ll cop to being strange ?

I'm old enough to remember when microsoft charged obscene amounts for word, and then updated a year or two later and you had to buy a whole new word because the old one wouldn't work with the new version.

This is one subject that there's not much room for more than the no answer to a yes/no question.

Technically, at least, the answer is yes.

But if you don't care about what you are missing, nobody else would either. ?

Is there any need for the AT&T plan at $20 per month? If so, how do you access it in the car.
