I use that one, too.

I think there’s also a setting to boost the sound with higher speed, although it’s been a while since I mucked around in the settings, and I don’t notice the boost, so maybe I’m misremembering.
There is a setting for boosting the sound as speed increases, but I haven't found it to be very effective. My wife's Impala has that and it works perfectly. The Mav's is a bit less of a boost, I think.

I guess it's just Lariat that has auto down/up on ALL the driver window switches?
Oh, I thought you meant one button to do them all, not the individual switches.

That could be cool, too! but having all 4 auto makes it pretty easy. Same with putting them back up, no worries.

I noticed in the bed cubby there is a removable partition revealing a larger compartment. This is on my Lariat. It’s big enough for some ratchet straps, rope or a set of jumper cables. Nice.

But is it really a "hidden" feature if it's heavily advertised and featured in the Ford "getting to know your truck" videos?

Well, I didn’t see the videos. I just found it on my own, thought it was neat and would share it with others.

That courtesy wipe had me frustrated a few times in the early days.

  1. Wipe windshield
  2. stop
  3. a few seconds later courtesy wipe
  4. doubt self and tap the wiper switch assuring myself it is off
  5. GOTO step 3
The courtesy wipe can be turned on and off with the dash settings menus.
At least in the XLT it can

A set of steel sawteeth that will flatten your spare tire if you are rear ended. SofaKing weird.

Courtesy wipe? I mean, I've heard of a courtesy flush, but a courtesy wipe?
Yep. Check your wiper settings. Courtesy Wipe is precisely what Ford has named it!
