2022 F150 Powerboost Lariat
Two times now, since I took delivery of my Powerboost in May, I have gotten the following message on the Instrument panel "You have crossed an International Boundary do you want to change Units". Both times it happened when I first got into the truck in the morning.

I'm in Calgary, Alberta,Canada and obviously never crossed any borders.

Anyone else seen this or can explain why it happens?

(Eventually) an F-150 PowerBoost
I read somewhere (can't remember where now..) that it is a feature of the truck that can be turned off.

Your truck must be picking up a sign post ( similar to a speed limit sign ) which leads the truck thinking a new speed limit sign has been detected. When I cross into the US , I get this soon after it detects a speed sign in MPH. As posted, I believe you can turn this feature off.

No it happens while the truck is sitting at home - not travelling.
