Thanks. I was afraid of that. I'm not sure if it is worth pursuing. I think if I knew what changes were I could decide. The truck doesn't update automatically. So it's a bit of a hassle to keep leaving it at the shop for a day or 2.

I got my '22 Sync 4 updated today to version 610 after creating a case with Ford and taking my truck to the dealer. But I see some '22s are at version 934. Is there a list somewhere of software updates that shows what updates or changes are in each version? You know - like most software updates do in the IT world. Thanks.

You should get a slider. Anything else limits you, especially on a wide bodied Solitude. Listen to all the others without sliders - they all say 'I can turn far enough' but they all add that they can't turn all the way (up to a 90 degree turn); and they all add that I have to keep an eye on....... I've had 2 auto sliders in my short beds. First the Pullrite and then the Demco auto slider Hijacker. The proper substitute for a non slider is a long bed truck. So now I have a long bed with a Reese Goosebox. With an auto slider you never have to get out of the truck to make adjustments - just back up or make that U-turn without interruption. My DEMCO is now sitting idle stored in the garage. Not sure why I don't just scrap it.

I doubt it is the adaptive steering. I had it on my 2018 and it's on my brand new 2022 too. The new truck steers straight - with or without a trailer (a 5th wheel). You'd think a Ford dealership would be checking the alignment, tires pressures, torque on nots and bolts, etc., instead of just blowing you off. But lately I think a lot of dealerships service departments just suck at what they are suppose to do. Hopefully you can find a good dealership that is willing to actually look for a problem.

I used it for the last 2 weeks. It worked quite well. I didn't press the keypad, I issued verbal information. You sure you have the right car?

8 months and 1 day later..... KRU - loaded (except for MC seats). I should have fully closed the door so the running board wasn't deployed.

Thanks. ice-capades. I called, and sure enough, it's built and ready to ship. Apparently today and they gave me a CSX rail car number too. Things are looking up!!

I finally got the "It's Built" email (ordered 10/29/21) and it said I should receive my truck (KRU, SRW, LB) between July 16th and the 22nd. Now I have 2 questions...... 1. Does that mean it isn't waiting for chips or more parts or whatever and it is really ready to ship? 2. My window sticker says "Convoy"; I'm in central FL. Does the shipping time seem reasonable? Thanks. oh.... yes - the delete MC seat 'option' is there along with the whopping $300 refund

Ordered my 350 LB, SRW, on 10/29. The latest word I have is that is to be built the week of 6/13. But the original build was suppose to be 3/7. So who know when it will actually get built, let along shipped!

Actually there are lots of places to get that exact information. Personally I would never rely on data off the top of my head (it's too cluttered with other useless stuff). wowens79 probably got the best reply and put some thought into it..... I'd agree with him that most folks probably wouldn't, or don't do a lot of research on used vehicles.

OK. Think in general terms and forget the analogy. In 2 or 3 or 4 years, when folks go looking for a used '22 Limited or Platinum will they pass on one without MC seats (or whatever else Ford decides to delete) and instead opt for a '22 model with them thus making your '22 without them less valuable?

Pretty much like no one wants a 6.0 Diesel engine, will the 2022’s with deleted features be of less value than other model years immediately before and after the 22’s?

I used some LockTite Poly caulk for the seams. I used a half piece of pipe insulation for the sides of the tailgate and some foam weather-stripping for the bottom of the tailgate. I have a Roll-n-Lock cover. I'm probably 90% sealed but dust is still going to get in. I think you'd need one of those hinged solid fiberglass tops to stay any dryer but it kind of defeats the purpose of a truck (as does a bed rug - there is an oxymoron... bed rug...).

I have to agree. Just in time inventory these days has to be a challenge. Sorry if I let my frustration creep in here. I'm just really anxious to get a long bed and try out a different fifth wheel towing arrangement.
