Way back on March 29th:
Since then, I took my truck in for an oil change, recall, and an update. However, when I picked it up they said it was already up-to-date. Can someone tell me if that is true? And, if so, how?
VIN# 1FTFW1E89MKD62304
Thanks!
I looked into this last spring and was about to go Mongoose/vcm/FDRS route, but then the dealership was successful on getting me some updates and I dropped it.
Since I am back-level again I'll look into further when I get back home. Thanks again.
Thanks for the quick response!
The truck has been setting in a garage for most of the winter as I still drive my old 2010 Explorer most of the time and the battery ran down quite a bit although it did still start.
I have it on a charger. Once I have it charged I'll see if I can persuade it to...
Just so happens that I am going right by Durand, Michigan on Friday, April 28th (I live in Colorado) and I was writing a DM to you to see if you were going to be around.
But with all the updates that are still missing and, after the advice from you, snakebitten, rugedraw and others on the...
Thanks for all of that information ... I think. If I understand that correctly, most every component on my truck still needs further updates.
Do you know if this will happen through normal OTA actions, or if I will still need to take steps to make it happen?
Before the update it said "SYNC4, Software Version: -------" (no version).
Now it says "SYNC4, Software Version: 21146_PRODUCT, Revision: 145".
Does that tell you anything?
Could someone look up my VIN - 1FTFW1E89MKD62304 - one more time?
Last week was a good week! My dealer actually put some updates on my truck so at least now it has a code level and OTA's are enabled.
And can you tell me where I stand and what I need to do next?
Thanks a lot!!!
Could someone look up my VIN - 1FTFW1E89MKD62304 - again?
Last time it was in the dealership in January it was to put on 22B08. They said it could not go on because Ford had just put a hold on 21G01 which impacted 22B08.
At that time you guys confirmed that that was indeed the reason that...
My truck (VIN# 1FTFW1E89MKD62304 ) has been in the dealership since the 16th.
In December I finally received notification that CSP#22B08 is available for my truck so I took it in. They are telling me that they cannot put it on because of CSP#21G01 (Bluecruise?). Meanwhile, I don't know when...
We have named our vehicles for a long time.
My new King Ranch is Paladin. My Jayco Whitehawk model 23MRB is Mr. B. My wife's Nissan is Rosie from the Jetsons - she had an old Garmin GPS with a voice that sounded a bit mechanical. My Explorer which came from Georgia is Miss Scarlett and my...
I guess I'm just a cheapskate. I have this generic $4.99 one on each of my trucks (and I think they were only $3.99 when I bought them):

And on the plus side, they could not be simpler. They just push in and they have never...
Picked up my beautiful King Ranch on Friday afternoon -- Star White, 600A, 3.5 Ecoboost, Max Tow, Trailer mirrors (love 'em!), power tailgate (I need the 'old-man step'), and those beautiful 20" Caribou wheels! I like the color-matched running boards (non-powered) as well. No chrome, no...
My Star White KR - 600A with max tow - was built right on schedule. Blend date was 3/4 and build was complete on 3/5. Waiting on shipping now. ETA has slipped one day to 3/30. I plan on towing with it on Memorial Day weekend so that should be enough break-in time.
I went to this Ford site this morning - https://shop.ford.com/vehicleordertracking#/status - and saw the "in Production" status as well. It also said "..tryout the link to your window sticker ..." (see the picture) and -- voilà -- I had a sticker!
Yippee! I finally have some movement. My window sticker showed up this morning. Blend date of Thursday, March 4th.
This is definitely a bit of a unicorn - a King Ranch group 600A instead of 601A:
Star White King Ranch
Group 600A
Max Tow

wheel well liners
20" wheels
