Ford is among a bunch of manufacturers who specify only OEM glass be used to replace any windshield, they will not guarantee any of the safety systems will work with any other supplier.
As a car owner you are free to put in what you want, but as an Insurance or repair shop guy I need to follow...

I don't know about Ford, but my 2022 Highlander came with a stack of manuals, including one that was over 600 pages just for the radio.
The Pilot Operating Handbook for a...
Every time I post a certain member of the peanut gallery wants to chime in and make it a dick measuring contest.
Frankly I don't care anymore
My Mustang is so low on the list of things I have an interest in I only come here when I am totally bored out of my mind
And I just realized I am...
I am lots of fun everywhere I go
and when it comes to stuff like changing lights out I ask these things because in every town, on every department, there is some Ahole cop that is going to crucify someone for something he does not like and I like to make sure that when that happens the owner of...
Gee I did not know that!
18 years as a mechanic, 20 as a body/frame tech. ,9 as an Insurance appraiser that had to memorize 50 pages of "P Pages" so I knew what was an included operation and what was not (bathroom breaks, breaks, pulling the car in, etc are considered part of the normal labor...
If you are not the original owner, you did not have a lot of leverage to force the dealer to install them because you can't prove the original purchaser did not ask for them to be left off.
The selling dealer already got paid for the PDI so there is no way for the dealer or tech to be paid...
Ford, in order to keep Keystone from buying damaged wheels from body shops and refurbishing them, has put a $50 core charge on each wheel
Meaning if you want to keep the stock wheels, add $200 to the bill, if you are ordering them online, add $200 to the bill.
If you don't want to keep the...
That is why it is registered in my legal state of residence, which is NH
I tried to buy it in FL but was going to get nailed on the tax
Tried to buy a used one wholesale, cash deal, on my NH Dealers license which I would have picked up with my Dealer plate, insurance binder and a wire...
wow my 2024 was only $1595 for shipping
Another reason I am glad I didn't wait for a 2025
And I bought mine in NH, where I put 1000 miles on it in 2 months, had the oil changed then drove/auto train'd it to FL (700 miles) to avoid the FL sales tax of $3700
Personally I rarely use the adaptive cruise in any of my cars, occasionally when I am going back and forth up the east coast I will turn it on for short periods of time to give my feet a rest and be able to move them and my legs a bit, but I still prefer to do it the same way I have for 55 years...
If you can find a 401A while Ford is doing the " A Plan" pricing (thru the first few days of June 2025) buy it.
It does suck that the B&O is now an extra $995 but even then I'd say spend the money
Buy once cry once
The 401A has a whole lot of fun toys as far as technology, and the B&O with...
I was just thinking bout a term I have not heard used recently
Vaporware
Why do I think we might be getting all worked up about something we are never going to see.
The software is set in stone because once it is CARB'd it can't be changed without a new submission and approval
