Nice truck, waiting on a Raptor, order to production considerably longer. Only comment is that Waze is IMO the only nav app to use...some many added features and just plain better again IMO
We always use Waze on any long trip - the best for being warned about radar traps
I didn't understand when Ford chat stated it went convoy. I looked up the tracking code on the sticker previously & stated rail to Tampa. Brandon Ford's response made no sense either stating the truck was in Winter Park and the est. delivery dates. I am a Ford guy, Dad retired after 40 yrs. at Ford and have only owned Ford's for 40yrs. This will be my 5th ranger, 2 from the past and a 2019 & current 2020. My gut is saying this truck is a mistake.
Even in FL where you don't get snow, I would argue that a locking rear diff is still valuable. You never know when you're driving situation will cause you to get stuck, either based on road conditions or a mishap. The security of a lockable or limited-slip diff is awesome. Any sort of torrential rain i would look at the rear diff as providing a sense of security.
The Chat has been wrong on so many levels during my experience. I got better information from Ford Marketing Program Headquarters at (800) 334-4375 which are human beings instead of the Chat Bot. Our dealership can access info not privy to either service; so they have the best tools to find out exactly where it is and an estimate of arrival. CSX stops at the Ford Depot - 7001 Anderson Road Drew, FL (which is Tampa just North of the airport).
Looking forward to trying it on the 12" screen, haven't noticed it on Carplay in my '19 but it may be there and I'll try it.
Rich, haven't been able to get Waze on the new truck yet, only the std Nav shows up. Will work on it, but heard a rumor Ford no longer allows Waze...
Ordered May 25th and still waiting Lariat 4x4.
Even with Apple Car Play? Seem to see that it does, not going though Sync...from FordRaptorForum.com " Works great with Apple CarPlay. Doesn't go through Sync at all other than being displayed on the screen - all through the CarPlay phone projection" Which is how it works for me on my '19 with Carplay. But TBS lots of somewhat conflicting info....still searching
Samsung S21, Android, connected to Android Auto. It's wonky, sometimes connects wirelessly, sometimes won't. Dealer can't figure it out, of course they all have iphones. Preferred AA (wired) on my 5g also and Waze, avoiding the smokies, and like the color aerial maps.
Waze still works fine on my Sync 3 android auto.
My wife's new Atlas is the same way... Apple Car Play connects fine wirelessly one day, then the next day won't connect until you try it a half a dozen times then other days won't connect at all.
