    2026 Ford Illuminated Keyless Entry

    Yea, Ford eliminated a lot of features for the standard Platinum. It's more like a Limited with a Platinum insignia. It is missing quite a bit compared to my GEN4 Platinum. Unfortunately, I found out after my purchase. But mine is only missing a couple of features. In order to get the features...

    B&O Unleashed 22-Speaker Owners – How to Confirm & Your Experience?

    Resurrecting thread: I just traded my GEN 4 Expedition Platinum with B&O system for a GEN 5 Expedition Platinum with B&O Unleashed 22 speaker sound system. I've been installing stereo system and other vehicle electronics for years and I must say I am totally impressed at the quality, tone and...

    But doesn't it get us closer to a FLUX Capacitor?:p

    Max or non-Max?

    I've owned both. IMHO the non-max rides and handles better. The EXTRA room in the MAX is only cargo. So, if you don't need the extra space, then a mom-max will be fine. If you need space for cargo or have animals, the MAX is a plus. Also, a MAX will have lower gas mileage, if that would be an...

    2026 Ford Illuminated Keyless Entry

    My 2025 has it. I'm not sure if you left out some words when typing. But I assume you did not have the keyless entry on yours?

    connected services expired, how to get Android Auto apps

    I just picked up my 2025 Platinum Thursday. My connected services have expired, and I haven't signed up yet. I do get a free 90-day trial. However, how to get Android Auto apps to work, when there is no button or choice to bring them up, like my Gen 4 had? I'm not sure if I need the connected...

    '25 Owners...Thoughts and Impressions

    With that said, 22s with CCD ride much nicer than 22s with no CCD. I came from a 4th Gen. They stripped so many features, from the GEN 5 both functional and cosmetic, that I was confused when starting to look for a Gen 5, as I wanted all the features I had in my GEN 4. I finally learned very...

    Changing my oil and filter

    I no longer use the drain plug. I use a Vevor air assisted oil sump, (Vevor Oil Sump). It was on sale for $40.00 free shipping at Christmas. The first time I tried it, I pulled the plug and a few drops came out. That was good enough for me since I change regularly. Mine works of air so it takes...

    '25 Owners...Thoughts and Impressions

    I have 22s but not the ultimate package. It came with the driver experience package.

    The HORRIBLE steering wheel prevents me...

    I've now owned my new one for a whopping 2 days. I first looked and thought WTF is this? Then after setting the height and depth correctly, I changed my mind. Since I'm a 10 and 2 driver, it is very comfortable and the slide back after turning is very comfortable. My recent conversation with a...

    Gen 5 photos!

    It is incredible. 1050 watts 22 speakers placed perfectly. And when you put it in surround sound mode the separation is unreal. I have mine set to treble on 10, bass and mids on 5. Even the HD FM channels sound fantastic. My last one had the B&O 12 speaker system and it was great. But this one...

    Gen 5 photos!

    No on both. I assumed a Platinum is a platinum with the standard features. I've owned 3 Gen 4s, so my mistake is I assumed knew I needed the driver's package. And the dealer told me all Platinums have massage seats. Lesson learned. However now that I'm driving it, the B&O Unleashed makes up...

    Gen 5 photos!

    I just got back from picking it up. It's as beautiful vehicle. 2025 Stone Blue Metallic with Salt Crystal Grey interior. Near Mint Mine has the driver's package. However, I can't believe Ford eliminated so many features, like massage seats. The first one I purchase and returned was a 2025...

    The main concern would be if it messes with the bms, (battery monitoring system), at all. I guess time will tell.
