Thoughts on Power-Up 7.0.0 ?!

[Jimrpa]

My Jealousy is currently HIGH!!! I received 6.4.0 yesterday. I'm usually a month or so behind the "Leaders". So, I sit and wait. TBH, not looking forward to 6.8 and the "right shift" of the speedo. After 2.5 years of centeredness, that may take a min to get used to.

Still have not been hit up with the email about renewing the Blue Cruise subscription. I find this strange since we are 2 weeks away from the "free trial" ending!!!

You’re ahead of me!

I’m not certain what’s up with the way they’re pushing the updates to EA cars Jim. There are non ea cars closer to the BlueCruise update than we are. The time between updates has slowed significantly for me since just before Thanksgiving. I don’t expect to be completed for at least another 3 to 4 weeks.

Easy. Big number better than little number! More bigger number more better much gooderer.

Got 6.6 last night - they fixed a bug that was keeping the mirrors from folding when locked but in the first update of 3 they did this week I now have an annoying beeping sound when i exit the car after shutting off the engine. Keeps doing it until I close the door. Ford really needs to build out better QA teams and processes for their software development.

Wow, your Mach E has an engine!!!!!!?????!!!!!

I guess those brutal takes and nay-sayers were correct, EVs are dead.

Never mind, looks like a lurking Ford Employee took care of that...

Although I'm not being removed for violation of anything, I guess this kinda shows that they might be removing people now for violation of terms.

The fact that they addressed you by your first name stings a little.

That beeping sound might be your headlights staying on. Switch the head light switch off before exiting and see if the beeps stops. This use to happen to me occasionally.

If it was his first, middle and last names said with a mom's voice, you'd know he was in trouble!

I’m on a 2022 and have 6.8.0, not sure why some EA members are so far behind.

I don't remember who it was, but I remember a forum member predicting we would jump straight to 1.4 and the majority were very skeptical. Kudos to them, they called it right.

@DadzBoyz wins the prize! October 16:

My 2022 GT just notified me that 6.3 installed. Maybe 6.4 will be a quick follow-up?

If 6.4 is a steering module update, that would seem to make sense for BC 1.3-1.4 (I have a feeling we’ll get 1.4).

Very interesting to watch this all happen.

It said if you post about it, your car will be permanently locked to BlueCruise 1.0.

I would believe it. I received four updates in 1 week, three of them in 24 hours! And then I posted about my dislike for 6.8. No sign of any further updates in 5 days. My car clearly has no problems loading them. They know my VIN already. Coincidence? Hmmm…

...the "right shift" of the speedo. After 2.5 years of centeredness, that may take a min to get used to.

Umm... just make sure nothing slipped out on the left side otherwise we won't see much of you around here anymore.

Can anyone hint if there is anything other than a bluecruise update in 7.0.0?

I'm still wondering if there is a setting that is triggering this for people. I had 6.8.0 and my cluster looked the exact same - the car comes into play if I turn on lane sensing, and it disappears when I turn of its, same as always. The only thing that stood out to be as being different were the warning beeps (for seatbelt not buckled, and cross-traffic warning). They sounded different (and louder) on my first drive afterward but they returned to normal afterward; that's all I noticed. A few days later I received update 6.7.0 (the frunk update - the classic numerically out of order updates), and the cluster remained the same.

Not sure if I should count myself lucky or if it's something else. I'm trying to come to terms with the idea that eventually my cluster will have the car at the center no matter what, but I hope not.

In my world a "Left shift" indicates an infection...... (Really Bad Medical Humor)

Well, Dang, I hope mine stays centered. I can't imagine all those other people just have the cruise control turned on and don't know it. But, anything is possible.
