So you get a battery version and one day you lock your keys and phone in the truck somewhere out in the wilderness on a hunting trip. The battery on the keypad dies and you cant use it. You are fucke%^ ? Or is there a low battery light or chime?

just get rid of it and learn how to open a tailgate. If you use your tailgate frequently, having to wait for the assist is just annoying

^^Um...no. Once you get into low profile tires on massive rims the wheels play a big part

Tacomas have a COMFORT+ Complete option which includes block heater and Programmable Cabin Warmer/windshield de-icer thst works without turning on engine basically it’s a space heater that they install in the cabin and you can control with an app. must plug in though

New Engine or extended warranty. Don’t budge. Very low oil is a bad thing

I agree but even if Ford anticipated most would opt for the factory unit, they must have realized that in a few years many of those no hitch trucks are going to be selling as used vehicles, likely primarily to people who want a hitch. I haven't seen the wiring but doesn't it appear that there...

Very Nice. Reminds me of American Racing Teflon-coated Chamber 1's I had on a Tacoma. Not flashy but classic look

True, these newer vehicles are one big computer on wheels; cutting into wires is definitely riskier than it used to be.

As much as I hate the looks of the Santa Cruz this is one thing they got right This is how it should be. Apparently, the hitch is super easy as well

The last truck I bought that you couldn't easily add a harness to was an early 90's B series Here they give you a pigtail. Hilarious.

Lol. People on the forum also have a habit of not reading the thread before inserting foot in mouth. “you’re correct, it’s not gouging it’s a Ford part and priced accordingly.”

you’re correct, it’s not gouging it’s a Ford part and priced accordingly. But aftermarket’s will be less. It’s more the wiring that is worrying. . They sell the hitch so they must know some will want a harness.

The hitch price gouging will end once aftermarket jumps in. Not providing simple wiring solution like a pigtail is just lazy engineering.

Lol. Go away Troll

I got the 4K but if I was in this situation and didn't want to hotwire, I'd use a wireless solution temporarily until aftermarket figures it out. I haven't seen the wiring but I'll bet Ford will eventually correct this on newer models so you can plug and play. Stupid on a truck that its this...

Thats what I thought. Just dont see how Order Confirmed could be in progress; it either is or isnt. Assuming glitch as cs tells me I'm scheduled

When I call Ford I get a scheduled date of April 11. But what's the white circle inside the circle. I've seen some with checkmarks and some with white circles inside the circle.

Hitch could be welded to crash bar possibly and hotwire the harness but I’d take it to a good hitch place if you want to go that route. Much cheaper than $800 https://www.mavericktruckclub.com/forum/threads/hitch-receiver-come-on-already.9249/page-6

Good info in here https://www.mavericktruckclub.com/forum/threads/hitch-receiver-installation-difficulties.11881/ Ford should have made this easier ignore these guys. They’re like roaches in threads like this
