Even with BC expired, updating with FDRS gets hands on lane centering the new motion controller, which helps with ping pong and provides in lane repositioning to steer wide of 18 wheelers.

Is this something I can go to my dealership and ask them to update me to? Or do I need to learn how to do the updates myself?

Not paying $800 for it. Maybe $400.

Lol, of course my blue cruise expires today and it was the first time I got to use it for any length of time. The ping ponging was alot, hopefully they get it sorted out because the way that was I had no interesting in paying $1050 per year for it.

I did a full FDRS update about 4 months ago but still have 1.0 in a 2023 F-150. When did 1.4 drop via FDRS?

Wait. How did you miss this?
I know you have been busy (quieter) recently, but I would have pm'd you if I knew you weren't running 1.4

I think it dropped back in February?

Anyways, I've raved about the vast improvement in classic Bluecruise circumstances. (Fair weather, well marked lanes, long stretches of straight)

Of course you are towing the majority of the time? So maybe you haven't really missed much regarding afterall.

Yes, my PB is used mostly for towing so BlueCriuse has not been top of mind. I found BC 1.0 buggiy and too much of a nag so much so it just was not worth it.

I take it they still have not added towing to 1.4?

I have run up the miles on my 23 PB, so now thinking about a 25 PB. But I will have to wait it appears to get the 703 package.

For towing, you should consider a Comma 3x if you want some driver assistance.

With the way y'all are talking, can I get the 1.4 version on my '24 now or have to wait until Ford decides to push it to my vehicle? I only have 4 days left on my trial.

If you have access to a mongoose cable you can use FDRS and install it yourself.

If your 2024 came equipped with 1.3, you will get a bit of polishing up, maybe, by updating to 1.4

I'm not sure I would fret it unless you are indeed a daily user and intend to subscribe?

So, my eleven-month-old ‘23 Limited STILL has only 1.0 and Ford is advertising an update three versions newer? Why do I suspect that I’ll never see it?

 

[Snakebitten]

You'll get it sooner or later via OTA.

Or as soon as today, via FDRS.

This explains the price change for Bluecruise.

It's neat but no.

Thanks. I don't. have one, but have no qualms about purchasing one to do the updates now and in the future. I guess I have to read up on what else is needed, as I also don't want to break the bank.
