? F-150 LARIAT Lounge ?

An update showed recently that my 502A Lariat was built and shipped with an estimate date of 8/7. Well, we all know just like so many places you order something they say "shipped" and give you the tracking number. You check it and not received by seller. Three, four days later they actually shipped the item. My dealer states it takes four days to get a truck from KC to them, so all this wait time is really to find a transport to load it on. Maybe I will get lucky(rare for me)and it will arrive early.

Very nice!
I’m still waiting on delivery of mine.

Does the 2” truly level the truck. I’m reading where some are going with the 2.25” kit.

love the tires. Mine is coming with 18”. No rubbing on yours ?

hows your MPG been with your mods?

Antimatter Blue Lariat guys...what interior color did you order? I ordered the Dark Medium Slate but am second-guessing myself and wondering if I should do Black. It's so hard when the local stores don't have examples to see in person.

My advice would be to leave it alone. If you change it you risk another LONG wait.

I believe for the bench seat, the work surface is plastic instead of rubber, or leather material that would come on the console. I could see how that would get old after a while.

I have the work surface. It is a non slip surface. It’s not plastic but it’s not rubber. The best I could explain it is non slip.

I am still attempting (taking a break) to get my Iphone 12 pro to connect to apple car play on my sync 4. The Iphone connects via bluetooth and I can listen to itunes, use Siri to place calls, the iphone contacts are accessible, but it will not connect to car play and display the Iphone apps on the screen via bluetooth. I can connect via USB and car play is displayed on the screen. I have watched countless youtube videos, contacted Apple customer service who advised that the sync 4 does not connect to car play wirelessly. I have changed so many things in my iphone, I am no longer sure what I have done. The screen just states it is unable to connect to car play. I have cancelled and re synced so many times I have lost count. I even changed name of of truck sync to no avail. Guess I am going to have to adopt a 14 year old to fiugre it out.

That paint looks awesome! What did you use to get it that glossy?

The slate looks good. The color name is deceiving though. When I think of medium dark slate I think of the rock color slate which is just a few shades lighter than black. Fords version is more of a light grey/tan.

I ended up going black after spending about half an hour with both color interiors side by side. Kinda feel like I should have left it, but both interiors look really nice.

My understanding is that wireless car play does not work over blue tooth only. You also have to connect your phone to the trucks wifi.

It’s my understanding that it’s either/or not both. So if you connect Bluetooth you can’t use CarPlay. Turn off or disconnect your Bluetooth then connect the phone to the truck via WiFi that will get you into CarPlay, and should still allow use of certain apps

Could be, depends on Fords implementation, can’t find anything in the manual on it so looking at apples spec. Short of it is your only going to get standard bluetooth phone type stuff over bluetooth, it does not have the bandwidth needed for wireless car play. For carplay (the apps, screen, ios nav on screen etc), wifi is needed.

I did connect to wifi and did not have any luck. Left the effort and several hours later a friend stopped by to see truck. I started the truck and there on the screen was CarPlay. It seems to be working fine. We'll see what the future brings the next time I use the truck. But for the time being it seems to be working. Tough coming from a 2010 Explorer Sportrac with almost no electronic options to this 2021 Lariat 502A PB with a plethora of electronics.
