Most UNFAVORITE Tremor/Super Duty Feature

strogg said:
My least favorite features are the auto high beam and the momentary blinker that blinks more than once. Fortunately, I can turn off the former in the settings, and Forscan took care of the second one. Additional features I would like on the truck would be a DPF monitor (thank you Forscan again!) and a play/pause button on the steering wheel.

I am clearly in the minority with the whole push button start thing. I purposefully didn't get the push button start option because it is so easy to defeat. I'd have to keep the keys in a faraday cage of sorts whenever I'm away from the vehicle. It's not very convenient. Besides, I like the feeling of turning the key to start the truck. I guess I'm old school like that.

To annoy some fellow members here, I absolutely love column shifters. I also take great joy in hearing the Nintendo sounds the truck makes every time I turn it on.

I don't understand what you gain with push button start. My wife's fob is bigger than my key for my 2015. The only thing that I have noticed is that it c auses a scene when she wants to leave it running and forgets she has the fob in her pocket and gets out. The column shifter is a similar issue. Its never in the way and easy to use. I don't see what is gained by moving it. As for the noises, after 5 years on my old one I barely even notice it now.

Not having to fiddle with a key when wearing bulky gloves is a benefit.
 
Speaking of the key fob... I love push to start but hate that the fob doesn’t have a “flip out” key. I lock and unlock my glove compartment and center console frequently. This is so much more cumbersome with the new fob. ?

Over time that key will become looser and mine rattled in my pocket. With my 17, it took me forever to figure it out. At the top I did a wrap of electrical tape and the rattle was gone.

So this "Key", lock/unlocks the door, console and glove box, but if the remote battery is dead, how does it "start"? I cannot find anything on the dash for it to go into or in the Clear and Concise Owners Manual.

If the battery in your fob is dead, place it under the left side console tray and you will see the indention for the fob under a mat. It will then allow you to start and drive your truck. Also the key will also lock your back seat if you want to lock your storage compartment, and also unlocks/locks the spare tire.

Edit: On page 62 in the 6.7 owners manual, under create a mykey it will show you where the fob indentation is located

I haven’t checked on the new truck but the last one I had to lift the bottom trey next to the cup holders and there’s a slot that looks like your fob that you set it in and it starts the vehicle
 
I'm considering wearing my fob around my neck because I hate when I accidentally trigger the emergency honking.
