You can turn off the power lift gate in the instrument panel settings if you don't want it.
Nope. You can turn off the lift mechanism but the lock still unlocks the door.

You get more double takes from the soccer moms in a platinum.

As I feared, it would, it has a mind of its own and will frequently open on its own initiative. I have learned not to get the key within 3’ of any door for about 10 seconds after getting out of the truck or, sometimes the rear door will pop up.
FYI, I had a Platinum Max and did not like the rear hatch sensitivity either so I searched YouTube for a video on how to remove antenna, it was like 5 min. no error codes and solved the issue entirely.
We've been looking at 2020 Expeditions and my wife really likes the look of the Stealth package on the Limited. This is not available on the Platinum. How big a difference does the extra HP and torque make for the Platinum? And is the active sound cancelling on the Platinum noticeable? Are there any other factors to take into account?
Thanks!
Ford issued a Technical Service Bulletin for this issue in May 2019. Sadly, many dealers don't search for the source of problems when customers complain.

Basically they add a new ground for the control box and it fixes the issue.

we love our Limited Stealth with 4 wheel drive it is maxed out just does not have massage seats as my wife doesn't care for it anyway. I have that in my 2019 F250 Limited longed and hardly use it.
love the stealth look. its pretty cool driving down the left lane and cars think its a cop and move over lol.
what's missing in my Exp is
trailer back up knob (I don't need it)
massage seats (wife doesn't use it)
All passenger seat belt warning ( Picture pops on the Odo screen indicating which kid is not wearing the seatbelt) would love this feature hopefully FORScan coding can activate it will research
lower Horse power (We don't need it)
that's all I can think of as far as the difference between the Platinum and Limited go We test drove the Platinum and had it as a loaner until our 4 wheel drive arrived.
