I guess I didn’t read that part because I don’t go through car washes🤔 i’m interested to hear the reply to your question!
I can't get to the manual from my tablet, but I'm pretty sure it said to use "low", but then some here said it wasn't necessary except if the engine turned off etc. I'm kinda afraid to use the car wash now cuz I'm not sure what to do.

After reading other posts about car washes I decided I would hand wash mine.

How about an option that "I'll read my manual when/if my truck ever arrives!"

I would cast the same vote. I have read parts of it when I had a question, but there is no truck in my driveway at this time.

I actually just downloaded it from the Ford website and went through it. There are a couple interesting settings or ways to turn off items I didn't know about, but I'll forget them in the next 5 or 6 months it takes for my truck to come.

I also downloaded the manual and have scanned/read quite a lot of it already while waiting on my truck… still waiting.

I'll admit I was one of those "I want to know everything!" but didn't touch the manual for a month. I pulled it out today when exploring the drive modes and gear shifter and I found out that even my model (a hybrid) has a low gear you can operate.

I’m curious about folks who read manuals or don’t read them so I thought this poll might be a little fun😊 Perhaps one of the answers should be “ I’ll read the manual when I can’t get answers to my questions from MTC members!” 😂
We travel quite a bit. Don’t mean road trips. So we rent a vehicle for a day or two at a time. We like to try as many different ones as possible. I love to peruse (or even READ, given the time) the owner’s manuals in the glove compartments. Lots of stuff to learn!
So…Last fall, when the Mav’s manual became available online, I read it all; even though there were parts that I didn’t quite grasp. Once the truck arrived, I read it again. Most became more clear with the truck in front of me.
But, last week, had a tough time trying to figure out how to change the clock to standard time. Try finding it in the manual.
You’ll see.
But I got it done.
Good ol’ manual!
