Most the updates going out over air only apply to 22+ trucks. So far this year 21 trucks are being left out. I didn't have any of them in FDRS either that have been posted here. Overall this year has been very light on OTA as they prep for the updates supposed to be coming in Q4. Not sure if 21 will get those either.
My '21 hasn't received an update since last October. I got regular updates up till then and everything is working fine so I don't think I'm missing much.

It finally happened!

After months of auto updates on and set to everyday at 01:00 and nothing to show for it, today at 09:30, after driving for a short trip, leaving the truck and then coming back, this miracle occured:

Ford F-150 OTA Updates - A quick tip for you all 1000000747


Does anyone else who has had this update applied already notice any substantial improvement in update delivery? I've been holding my breath for this one ever since they released it.

Was your parking brake on?

Yes, but I'm pretty sure that's been debunked.

Besides, I almost always set my parking brake before getting out of the truck. At this point it's a habit, just the same as folding the mirrors in.

You should now get the APIM OTA 10.1.0 in the next few days. :)
