Connected services question.

[roadPilot]

I have all connected services enabled except Sirius/XM (don't use it)

I use all the services everytime I start the truck, except Bluecruise.

LOL. Those are the only two that I *do* use.

A perfect example of why so many options are made available to us.

If I know that I will be spending several hours on Bluecruise enabled roadways, I will hook up Forscan and let the evil eye scanning witch out of her dungeon. I actually love Bluecruise IF I'm on Bluecruise roads.

Or $200 annual

A steal if you intend to leverage it.

I did the annual pricing on my cell phone. It was $300 for 12 months of service ($25 monthly) on AT&T's prepaid end. Descent Galaxy Phone. It came with 16GB a month data with rollover.

I did opt for the $20 hotspot data, but unsure I'll ever use that much, since I never use all the data on my phone.

I thought I got three years of Navigation since I did the Audio Upgrade, see attached, but Navigation ended after three months. Called the Navigation purchase line and they said that my model did not have a chip version built in so I needed to pay for more than 3 months. VERY misleading below.

Navigation comes in two very confusingly named versions:
1. Connected Navigation, and
2. Built-in Connected Navigation.
The ONLY difference, according to Ford, is that Connected Navigation is a three month “trial subscription”, while Built-in Connected Navigation comes with a complementary three year subscription.
That’s it.
This is unrelated to the Hotspot feature or SiriusXM; both of those are subscription services offered by the respective vendors.

Makes perfect sense.

I leverage the Ford LTE Hotspot with a SIM-less Samsung phone. So it's perhaps a unique situation where the co$t benefit is easily reckoned.

If/When I go in to the office, my drive is ~55 miles, ~50 of which are BC roads.

My "services" expiration dates have not updated in my "connected services tab".
Will be interesting to see what I have.

However, I have seen it on window stickers where its an added option and $$$$, so I am just assuming I have the 3 month.

No biggie. There's always Android Auto!

I have the 3 year navigation plan. Does anyone know what the cost is after the 3 years?
