Yikes....the 23s are definitely going to be the bastards of the 14th gen.

Is there a list ongoing somewhere that says what all is being removed?

Why does this sound familiar?

I have to say that growing up my parents had a wagon somewhat like this. It was green with wood panels on the side. God awful looking thing.

Coming soon to a dealership used lot "2021 FULLY LOADED, NO MISSING PARTS, I KNOW WHAT I GOT DON'T @ ME"

Well, look at me! I ordered my build 1 January 18th, 2021 and got it in just 2 months. XLT Sport 4x4 Power Boost with almost every available option. It look, feels, & drives like a Platinum (except for the leather). And I paid dealer invoice at the time along with Truck month and personal incentive/Ford loyalty money, I dropped $55K for it. NOTHING deleted.
I've been looking at all the current ads for the same truck on the local lots and none come with my options, not to mention, anywhere close to what I paid. I really feel sorry for current shoppers. That sucks.
I guess this baby is staying with me for a LOOOONNNNGGG time... But, as they say, Money talks!!
? ? ?

Tim B. just read a Ford memo on his live stream that starting Jan 26, the camera in the high-mounted stop lamp was being deleted with option 63R for a $175 credit. Applies to XLT and above trims that have the 360 camera package that have not been built. No word if it can be added back easily.

Bummer. I've onlly had my '22 for a few days and I've already used it quite a bit.

Also called the "Griswold"!

That’s a bummer. Mine had Sirius and Nav deleted (not a big deal) but also Auto Stop/Start deleted (which I’d like, I’m probsbly the only guy who wants it and it got deleted, haha!)

I do like the bed camera; only used it a few times but it was useful. I also like that it can operate while driving (unlike rear-view, I think).

If you are getting the Powerboost hybrid engine the stop/start will always be deleted because it’s built into the hybrid engine. (That’s what my dealership said).

that is just plain dumb imo
i use that camera quite a bit when i tow to see a wide view of the trailer
camera builder must be same place our eggs are coming from??

Yeah, these deletes don't make any sense, nor do the deletion of the camera views such as the ball hitch view while moving. I'm glad I have my 21 with all these features, but this does not make me feel well for me purchasing a new one in the future, say a 25, how many things are they going to delete before then?

 

[Ziggy73]

Granted I agree this is stupid to remove, but what I find funny is the auto start stop removal is a $50 credit, and this is a $175 credit. The resolution on that camera looks like it's being filmed through a potatoe. I bet they are saving like $3 by not putting it in. So why take it out?


Still happy to have the potatoe cam over no bed cam at all.

I agree, it's perfect for when you have something tall such as a refrigerator that strapped down and you want to check the straps. They're starting to irritate me with their deletes.

Glad my '23 was able to squeak through with the bed camera included

I think what you mean is you CAN'T delete it because that's what the hybrid is designed to do.
Personally, I love the fact that I can sit in a drive through line or at a job site and be 'running' with AC/heat, tunes, etc. and the engine not running. When I drive my wife's Mustang GT and am sitting in traffic or a drive through I find myself wishing it would turn off! ?
