So I work in the entertainment industry with very large vehicle mounted generators, and this topic comes up all the time. No grounding rod is needed as you are complying with that section by use of the 30amp connector on the truck, and matching cord cap on the cable. How do we know this? As an...
let me throw some more mud on this discussion. Do you each consider the PB to be a vehicle mounted generator? And if so would 250.34 of the nec then apply? Does that change the discussion?
It was just about 10 days for me to get from 2.7.3 to 2.8.2 and to have blue cruise active. That was this last Wednesday. Today while driving 3 hours I got 2.8.3 and can now have the bed camera in while driving at any speed, as well as having it in the side panel of the display.
There is no selection. Once you have 2.8.2 and you turn on adaptive cruise control with lane centering, if the highway has been mapped by ford for BC, it will automatically activate.
So I received 2.8.2 tonight just as I was starting a 5 hour drive back to my vacation. With blue cruise functional the drive was so much better.
For those stating that they are getting the “blue cruise is active, be prepared to resume control, you will get that with 2.8.1, but you must have...
Just got 2.8.1 tonight. All updates have been OTA. April 21 delivery of a build 1 lariat powerboost. Tonight’s update was just about an hour to complete. So this makes 4 updates in about 10 days.
I got 2.7.1 today while at a rest stop on the Mass Pike. 2.6.0 Yesterday. I had been on 2.3.0 from 1/15. So some movement.
Im not in the EAP.
Build 1 delivered in April of 21
Lariat Powerboost.
Since the powerboat is a hybrid it turns off the engine when in electric mode. Then automatically restarts it when the battery needs charging or your driving requires more “power”. So it basically acts like auto stop/stop, but you can’t turn that off.
Make sense?
For those of you who have newly received blue cruise functionality, was it always in your connected services section of your online account? When I bought the truck a year ago it was listed there, then it disappeared. And has not returned. I’m curious if the OTA coincides with that reappearing.
Literally reading this thread, logged onto ford.com and saw the notification online of a successful update to 2.1.0. Won’t get a chance to check it out in the truck until after a business trip this week.
Sorry for the obvious suggestion, but double check both ends of the wire and that the connectors are fully seated. The cover for the truck end should close against the connector, holding it in place tightly.
