BlueCruise Renewal $0

[nitrobass24]

Got an email from Ford that my Bluecruise was expiring soon and that I needed to buy a subscription. I clicked on the link just to see what it would cost, but to my surprise, I was able to buy a 1-year subscription for $0.

I suspect them to offer that until/around the BC OTA push that promised for spring then summer and still hasn't OTA'd

Yea makes sense. I just hadnt seen anything on here about it since last year when people were being offered $800/3yr options.

I got 3/year for $600 and used Ford Pass Points to pay for it. I am hopeful we will get the newer version but when I travel, it works well now. Not perfect but nothing is perfect.

I love BC, just wish it handled more of the freeway where I drive. It cuts off frequently enough even on a major freeway.

FORD in Canada still wants 325 for a one year BC renewal on my 21 , or 750 for 3 years, monthly 100.

I’m kind of hoping comma.ai does a hardware refresh soon. The 3X is getting a bit long in the tooth for the things we need it to do.

Yeah, I want a screen-less unit or one that can leverage an aux GPU. I've got an a2000 and an a4000 I could make a little truck machine to run in. Models would need to be scalable though to take advantage of better hardware.

I also took advantage of that offer. One free year when you subscribe. I entered my CC info and it was $0.00.

Also, I noted that my expiration date on Connected Services didn't update. So I called FordPass and they were great. Said the expiration date would update upon the expiration of my 3 year initial plan.

What I forgot to ask was would the 1.2 BlueCruise be available for my 2021 when I start paying. I haven't received an update in quite a while, and wondered if anyone else with a 2021 has the new BlueCruise 1.2 yet via OTA?

To my knowledge no F150 has received the updated BlueCruise via OTA.

Not via OTA
If you get a mongoose cable you can update it with FDRS.

Very interesting as mine is expiring prior to yours, but it could be due to yours being a '21 and mine a '24. I am not renewing mine for that outrageous cost. They can FO. lol

Yea I think your right. The 21's came with 3yrs because it wasnt available when we bought it. I wouldnt renew at $800/yr either. I would definitely get a Comma3x device instead.

I've wondered if something like a MacMini/Studio would be powerful enough? Could run my self-driving and plex server in the Truck.

I need to fight with Ford and try to get an extra free year since my truck has been sitting at the dealership broken for 194 days of my subscription.
