When I get home from work, installing my remote start Start-x module. The ford app sucks
You have a lariat and are installing a 3rd party remote start, Is that not standard with the lariat?

You can only get the remote start on the keyfob if you have the 501 package, otherwise its only through the app

Sheesh, it's the top trim that should be standard. All these different packages to nickle and dime basic features that should be standard.

I agree, and didn't make too much of a stink since you could do it through the app but the app hasn't impressed me at all. So I spent $100 for the remote start. If I went through the dealer it was $450 which is ridiculous.


UPDATE: Took about 10 mins to unplug the dam obd2 adapter then smooth sailing from there. All I do is lock,unlock,lock and within 5 seconds or so starts right up.

So this is the one for a 2020. Funny that Amazon says it doesn’t “fit” my 2020 ranger. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08KHMGH3...abc_E648TMXMVXJ53FJKX0VY?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

My Ranger took me to the Volcano last month to see the eruption, and today she took me to the top of the mountain to see the snow :) My Ranger treats me well!

Wow, how did you get that big aluminum pod on the back of your Ranger? Must be cool for camping!

Went about 30 miles deep in to the Everglades levy/canal system. Saw a bunch of deer and wading birds.
Even spotted a flamboyance of flamingos.

But never mind the wildlife - here’s the truck.
